Fluorescent Colours – Strikingly Bright and Bold
A fluorescent colour (also called a neon colour) is an exceptionally vivid and bright shade that immediately catches the eye. They reflect light in a special way – under daylight, UV light or other light sources – making them appear to glow.
Thanks to this effect, fluorescent colours are perfect for increasing visibility and safety, or simply for making a bold impression.
What makes fluorescent colours unique?
- Extremely high visibility, recognizable even from great distance
- Safety function, essential in sectors where visibility is key
- Eye-catching appearance, popular in fashion, sports and promotions
- Available in various shades
- Can be combined with PMS colours and even with phosphorescent colours
Typical applications
Fluorescent colours are widely used in:
- Safety vests and signal clothing (construction, logistics, emergency services)
- Sportswear and sports accessories
- Promotional materials that must stand out
- Neon/blacklight parties
Important Information:
Fluorescent colours (Pantone 801 C to 814 C and RAL 1026, 2005, 2007, 3024, 3026 and 6038) are not standard PMS/RAL colours. We use special pigments for printing fluorescent shades. Please take into account a surcharge when ordering fluorescent colours.
Note: With fluorescence, the glow disappears immediately after the light source is removed, while with phosphorescence, the glow remains visible for a longer period.
Phosphorescent Colours – Glow in the Dark
Phosphorescent means that the material absorbs light (usually daylight or artificial light) and slowly releases it again later. As a result, these colours continue to glow in the dark, even without an external light source. This effect is also known as glow in the dark.
Various colours are available, the strongest being “green/white.”
Features
- Glow in the dark after being charged with sufficient (day)light
- Clearly visible without an external light source
- Can be combined with PMS colours and even fluorescent colours
- Glow effect from several minutes up to hours (depending on charging time and pigments)
Examples of applications
- Security personnel clothing
- Visibility in poorly lit areas
- Decorative clothing with glow effect for events or parties (UV/Blacklight)
Important Information:
Phosphorescent colours are not standard PMS colours. For printing, we use special pigments. Please take into account a surcharge when ordering phosphorescent colours.
Note: With phosphorescence, the glow remains visible for a longer period, while with fluorescence it disappears immediately when the light source is removed.

Embroidery Look – The Charm of Embroidery Without Needle and Thread
Want the luxurious and artisanal look of embroidery, but with the flexibility of a transfer? Then choose our embroidery-look transfer. Thanks to the detailed finish, this transfer creates the visual effect of real embroidery – but lighter, faster to apply and more affordable.
Why choose embroidery look?
- Luxurious embroidery effect without stitching
- Lightweight and flexible – no heavy embroidery
- Fast delivery times
- Easy processing, also suitable for delicate fabrics
- Fully customisable in colour and shape
Sublimation
By using heat and pressure, the ink is transformed into gas and permanently dyes the fibres of the fabric. The result? An imperceptible, durable and colourfast print.
How does it work?
Your design is first digitally printed on special sublimation paper. It is then applied to the textile using a heat press. The high temperature causes the ink to sublimate: it changes from solid ink to gas and penetrate directly into the synthetic fibres.
Suitable for:
- White or light-coloured fabrics made of polyester, nylon, lycra or dralon
- The higher the synthetic content, the more brilliant the result
- Maximum print size: 10,000 cm²
- Only suitable for white or light polyester fabrics
- Perfect for sportswear, promotional wear, umbrellas, safety vests and flags
Available from 25 pieces, no setup or starting costs. Fast delivery times.
Reflection Colour – Visible in Style
Reflection Colour combines high visibility with design freedom. This transfer reflects when light hits it (e.g. car headlights or artificial light), but during the day it remains visible in colour. Perfect for applications where safety and appearance are equally important – from workwear to outdoor or sportswear.
Main Advantages
- Reflective and coloured – safety with style
- Available in various colours
- Flexible and durable, suitable for all types of textiles
- Ideal for workwear, promotional wear and sportswear

Transfer Removal Film
The safe and fast alternative to spray removers – without harmful chemicals! Wrongly applied emblem? No problem. With our Transfer removal film, you can remove transfers and emblems quickly, cleanly and without damaging the fabric. The film is heat-activated and releases the emblem from the textile.

Retro-Reflective – Visibility When It Matters
Retro-reflective transfers provide optimal visibility in darkness or low-light conditions. Thanks to microscopic glass beads, the material reflects light directly back to its source – for example, car headlights. This ensures the wearer remains clearly visible, even in the most challenging circumstances.
Main Advantages
- High reflectivity – maximum safety at night
- Available in silver or coloured reflective options
- Suitable for workwear, sportswear and emergency services
- Flexible and washable
Typical Applications
- Safety clothing (EN ISO 20471:2013+A12016)

PVC Badges – The Solution for Difficult Materials
PVC – specially designed for rubber, coatings and membranes. Rubber boots, coated garments or technical membranes? No problem. The PVC badge is developed for substrates where standard transfers fail. Thanks to a very low application temperature of only 75–100 °C, this badge adheres perfectly without damaging the fabric.
Why choose the PVC badge?
- Ideal for rubber, coatings and membranes
- Reliable adhesion at low temperatures
- Unique in the transfer market – where others stop, this badge goes further
Ready for the real work? Choose the PVC badge.
Application Guidelines – TR.LW PVC (for optimal adhesion to rubber, coatings and membranes):
- Temperature: 85 °C (application range 75–100 °C)
- Pressure: 1–3 kg/cm² (or bar)
- Time: 15 seconds (or test run)
- Carrier removal: Cold
- Resealing: If necessary
