Cartoon design PET film label heat transfer printing film for plastic
Heat transfer film is a versatile solution for printing vibrant designs on plastic products. It involves transferring a pre-printed design from a carrier film (like PET film) onto a plastic surface using heat and pressure. This method is ideal for cartoon designs, logos, or intricate patterns, ensuring high durability and color accuracy.
Cartoon design PET film labels are popular for toys, packaging, and promotional items, offering a glossy, fade-resistant finish. Heat transfer printing film for plastic is compatible with various plastics (PP, ABS, PVC), providing excellent adhesion without cracking or peeling.
The process is eco-friendly, cost-effective, and suitable for mass production. Key benefits include scratch resistance, waterproof properties, and long-lasting prints. Whether for industrial or decorative use, heat transfer films enhance plastic products with eye-catching, durable designs.

Q:How to ensure that the colors of design drawings are more standard?
1) For the electronic draft, the customer confirms the color and size. If there is a 5% difference between the product and the design draft, the customer will be informed in advance.
2) Use Pantone color cards to compare color numbers with customers.
1. Cylinder Making (Gravure Engraving)
The process begins with creating a precision engraved cylinder (gravure cylinder) with the desired design. The cylinder’s surface is etched with tiny cells that hold ink, ensuring high-resolution printing.
2. Printing (Gravure Printing)
The thermal transfer film is fed through a gravure printing press, where ink is transferred from the engraved cylinder onto the film substrate (PP, PET, etc.). Multiple colors are applied in layers, with each color requiring a separate cylinder.
3. Drying (Hot Air Drying)
After each printing pass, the film passes through a drying oven to evaporate solvents, ensuring the ink adheres properly and prevents smudging. Temperature and speed are controlled for optimal drying.
4. Slitting (Cutting to Width)
The printed film is slit into narrower rolls using precision blades, adjusting the width based on customer requirements (e.g., for labels or packaging).
5. Lamination (Optional Coating)
Some films undergo lamination with a protective layer (e.g., varnish) to enhance durability, scratch resistance, or glossiness.
6. Packaging
The final rolls are inspected, wrapped in protective film, and packed into boxes or pallets for shipment.

4.What is "heat transfer printing' ?
Heat transfer film uses PET raw materials and prints customized artwork on the PET raw materials through gravure printing technology. After the customer receives the heat transfer film, the pattern on the PET raw material is transferred to the surface of the product using the high-temperature printing of the heat transfer machine, thus forming a decorative effect.
