Fabric Compatibility
Heat Transfers for Nylon
Nylon shells and technical fabrics. Lower-temperature transfer solutions protect sensitive coatings and finishes.
Nylon × Transfer Technology Compatibility
How nylon works with each of our transfer technologies. This matrix is general guidance — final compatibility is confirmed through sampling and testing with your actual fabric.

Recommended Transfers for Nylon
Technologies we most commonly recommend for nylon garments.
What We Consider for Nylon
- Nylon requires lower application temperatures to avoid fabric distortion or shrinkage
- Coated and DWR-treated nylons need adhesion testing before production
- Taffeta and ripstop weaves may require carrier adjustments for full coverage
- Seam-sealed garments should be checked for heat sensitivity before application
