Sawgrass's VersiFlex: Revolutionizing Textile and Object Personalization
The world of personalization is evolving rapidly, and Sawgrass, a leader in dye-sublimation printing, has launched a major innovation: the VersiFlex system. This patented technology combines the advantages of several printing methods, including dye-sublimation, Direct-to-Film (DTF), Direct-to-Garment (DTG), and heat-transfer vinyl (HTV), while eliminating many of their limitations.
What is the VersiFlex system?
The VersiFlex is an all-in-one solution that allows printing on a variety of materials such as:
- Natural fabrics: cotton, linen, nylon, canvas
- Untreated wood and stone
- Multi-coated products: mugs, water bottles, signage panels
This versatility is made possible by a combination of:
- VersiFlex inks : specially formulated for optimal transfer on various substrates
- Specialized transfer papers : such as VersiFlex Light for light-colored fabrics and TruePix for poly-coated surfaces
- Sawgrass SG500 and SG1000 printers
Advantages of the VersiFlex system
1. Exceptional versatility
Print on a wide range of materials without needing multiple machines or different inks. Whether it's for cotton t-shirts, ceramic mugs, or wooden signs, VersiFlex adapts to your needs.
2. Self-detaching technology (Self-Weeding)
Thanks to this technology, only the printed elements are transferred, eliminating the need for manual cutting or peeling. This guarantees clean results, even for complex designs.
Tip: The Créadhésif team recommends removing the transfer paper IMMEDIATELY after pressing your fabric or object. If you are pressing onto cotton, make the transfer immediately after printing your VersiFlex design while the ink is still wet. We advise preheating your heat press before printing your image to ensure optimal results.
3. Ease of use
The process is simple: print your design, apply it to the substrate with a heat press, and remove the paper. No pretreatment steps are necessary, which reduces production time.
4. Lasting Results
Prints made with VersiFlex withstand more than 30 washes, while retaining vibrant colors and a soft feel.
