You have options to choose from when it comes to heat transfers, and when it comes to full color heat transfers, Supacolor has set the bar high. When choosing your heat transfer, there are certain qualities you should be sure to look for.
On the surface, one of the things about direct to film printing is that it can be great for small quantities, such as one or two-unit test runs and small orders. This certainly has its place, but how does it compare to Supacolor overall? In this article, we’ll take a look and explain why it’s either Supacolor or it’s not.
Here’s the product differences:
Color Vibrancy and Consistency
Supacolor’s 6-color process involves a combination of screen printing and digital printing. This delivers unmatched vibrancy and consistent color from order to order.
Opacity
Supacolor screen prints its white based ink when creating transfers. By screen printing the white base it allows your prints to stay consistently vibrant on light and dark garments.
Washability
Supacolor is lab tested and certified to last 70+ washes without cracking or fading. Read the lab report results HERE.
Certifications
It’s a part of our brands promise to be eco-friendly and chemically safe. Supacolor is kid safe, and our certifications include Prop 65, CPSIA and Oeko-Tex. So, make sure your transfer company is safe for both your customer and the environment.
Durability and Stretchability
Supacolor features a supasoft hand feel and industry leading stretchability.
By using the screen-printing process in combination with the full color digital, Supacolor has unmatched durability. This means that when stretched, our transfers rebound better than any other product on the market.
Wide Application
Supacolor offers specialized transfer types for virtually any fabric and different bleed levels. When using a one size fits all solution, the consistency and durability of application remains inconsistent.
Low Minimums
Supacolor has the lowest minimum among full color screen printed transfers, at just 10 pieces. This allows you to deliver your customers high quality, long lasting, durable full color prints with as low as 10 pieces.
Turnaround Time
Supacolor has a Supafast, industry leading turnaround. With factories all over the world, most orders ship within a few business days, no matter what the quantity.
Price transparency and the true cost of ownership
Supacolor prices are as advertised. Supacolor requires no printing equipment, inks or technical skills outside of a heat press.
At Supacolor we take all the upfront and ongoing investment cost, as well as the time investment for maintenance out of the equation. You send us your artwork, we send you Supacolor, no maintenance necessary.
We also take out the requirement for a skilled workforce. Pressing can be taught and therefore scaled quickly, with confidence.
Emerging Technology
Supacolor is always innovating and working supahard to bring you the highest quality transfer. We will continue to add the equipment and technology necessary to better our product and service.
At Supacolor, we value the garment decorating community and we think it’s fantastic that the heat applied transfer industry is finally starting to hit the mainstream. We firmly believe that heat transfer printing is an important part of every professional printer’s toolkit when it comes to decorating garments. The flexibility that transfers give you to make products on-demand, fulfill small orders and say yes to your customer’s requests that screen printing, embroidery or DTG can't handle, makes heat transfers an important part of the future of garment decorating.
At Supacolor we don't take shortcuts. We know that when you put a Supacolor on a garment it’s important that the colors are right and that you have the confidence that the print is going to last. We know that you build your reputation on our products, and that’s a responsibility we take very seriously. We believe that the best transfer manufacturing process must include screen printing, this is the foundation for Supa vibrant, eye-popping colors that last.
There is only one Supacolor. We help you make it.

Recently I had the pleasure of taking a private marketing class from the incredible Mark Schaeffer. Mark is a gifted writer and storyteller and once was a student under the legendary Peter Drucker.
During the class, Mark told the tale of how Drucker would emphasize a particular point in a lesson with the phrase, “...but, is the dog barking?” This was an allusion to the Sherlock Holmes story “The Adventure of Silver Blaze,” where Holmes solved a mystery where a dog that should have been barking wasn’t. Therefore the suspect had to be someone the dog knew. This is important because if you are in a situation and expect to hear a “dog barking,” and it is not, don’t ignore that clue! This could be the one thing that provides you with the information that other people might miss.
Woof = Love
Think about anything and everything you buy. Whether it is ice cream or a new car, something about that particular brand convinces you to make that purchase. This is the dog that constantly barks. It is personal and is not always about features, benefits, or even price. It is about emotion. How does the brand make you feel?
Smart? Happy? Relieved?
Until one day, it doesn’t. Something about that brand changes for you. It doesn’t make you feel smart. Or happy. Or relieved. It might make you feel dumb. Frustrated. Angry even. And now, let’s flip that. Let’s not talk about you. Let’s talk about your customer.
When a customer calls your company to complain, they are the barking dog. They still love you. That’s the reason they are complaining. To give you a chance to fix it. They want you to hear their bark to show you they still care. Embrace that bark! That bark means you still matter to them in some way. But when the dog doesn’t bark? That customer has moved on. They don’t love you anymore. Somewhere out there they are running with a different pack that doesn’t involve you.
Here’s the question of the day.
Do you even notice? Can you run a history report of your customers over the last three to five years? How many are still active? Count up the silent dogs on the list. How big is that number?
A Key Clue
Why is this important? Let’s say that you have a customer that has an excellent relationship with your company. They have been a client for years. You have a solid rapport and have never had any problems with anything. Then one day, you notice that they have been relatively quiet lately. Yep. That dog isn’t barking. So you call up the contact you’ve had throughout your relationship. You discover that this person is no longer with that organization. Instead, they took a job with a different company.
“That’s ok,” you say, “I’m just calling about your next shirt order. I’d like to speak with the person handling that now.”
Can you feel that brick in your gut just reading that? You know what comes next.
“I’m sorry, but the new person has brought in their own vendors. So we won’t be needing your services now. Thank you.”
Ouch. What changed? You can say that you “Didn’t do anything wrong,” but that is not precisely correct.
Suppose you had a better relationship with the company and not just with one person. In that case, you could have jumped into the queue with the new decision-maker. Maybe there would have been an ally on their staff that said, “Hey, wait a minute, we should still use these guys.” However, many savvier companies have working agreements or contracts set up, so the relationship lasts longer than a particular person’s employment.
How solid of a foundation do you have with any of your clients? If you are only at the tail end of a website click or purchase order send, you might want to solidify that relationship a bit more
Why Do Dogs Bark Anyway?
Dogs bark to call attention to something. Woof! Woof! Woof! Simply means, “Hey! Over here!”
Everyone in the neighborhood knows that the garbage truck is rounding the corner. Or that there is a squirrel in the backyard. Or just where is that ball with the jingly thing inside? Is it stuck under the couch again? I need some help! The most effective barking dogs are actually those who don’t bark much. Dogs that seem to yap all the time get tuned out. They become instant background noise. On the other hand, when a dog that hardly ever barks let’s out a loud “Whhhhoooffff!” everyone pays attention.
Sometimes I think people bark like dogs.
Some yap incessantly about everything but don’t ever say anything meaningful. And then others rarely speak, but when they do, everyone listens. It is usually something insightful, funny, or profound. In your neighborhood (marketplace), what type of dog are you? Are you being ignored? How do you know?Do you yap constantly, or do people listen in when you bark? “Hey! Over here!”
Get Back To Our Example
Let’s get back to how Sherlock Holmes used the clue, of a dog not barking, to solve the crime. What habit or behavior has your customers, suppliers, or employees changed lately? “...is the dog barking?”
No? What has changed?
Let’s face it, after March of 2020, with COVID and our rise out of that predicament, business and markets have been disrupted. Everybody’s behavior has changed, and you could argue that it is not going back.
Now, we have other world events that have further disrupted business. Supply chain issues, challenges related to the war in Ukraine, and the meltdown of workforce availability.
When the dog isn’t barking, does that mean a fracture in the status quo?
If your customers are faced with anxiety and uncertainty from everyone else, could this signal an opportunity for you to develop a unique solution that catapults you as the dominant leader? Everything right now in business is being renegotiated as we claw our way out of the pandemic resurgence. So now more than ever, people are open to new ideas.
When the dog isn’t barking, that could signal that there is an opportunity to develop something meaningful. But unfortunately, the silent signal sometimes is confusing. It is easy to miss.
If you discover that things aren’t the way they should be, start asking some difficult questions. Why is something happening? Who is frustrated or confused? What changed?
Explore the rabbit holes. Often, they are worth going down.
Act Like It Was Your Dog
Pretend for a minute that this is your dog that isn’t barking. Yeah, I know you are probably a cat lover…but bear with me. Wouldn’t you want to know what’s going on with the dog? Not acting as usual could be a sign that something is wrong. So it’s worth getting up out of your chair and checking out, right?Here’s the question, though. Will you be open to what you find? Can it get past your filters and the distracting noise surrounding you and land on your brain and register?
Something just changed with the customer.
Something just changed with the supply chain.
Something just changed with one of my employees.
Something just changed with my part of the industry.
Something just changed something, and I haven’t connected the dots yet.
Are you curious enough to explore the seams that might be opening up? Trust me. Many people don’t even realize that the dog isn’t barking anymore. They are going to miss the clue. Therefore, if you start poking around and asking questions and then taking what you find and playing with it…you might find an epiphany. This could be your “Eureka!” moment.
You Don’t Need Answers. You Need Questions
Just to be precise. To be a leader, you don’t need all of the answers. Instead, what you need most is the willingness to be curious and explore. Pull the thread.More than anything right now, you should be asking questions. Be humble. You don’t know what you don’t know.
Pay attention to the new things. These are the new habits and behaviors. The new technologies. New roads are being paved, and you are not traveling down them yet. In fact, maybe nobody is.
Yet.
The dog not barking is what is going to lead you there.
by Rum Walia, President of Supacolor
Supacolor is six years old this month. To celebrate our anniversary, I wanted to share our journey – how we went from one factory with three employees to five factories in three countries, with nearly 250 employees serving thousands of international garment decorators, print businesses, brands, dealers, distributors, crafters and side hustlers.
It started with a belief.
The story of Supacolor goes far beyond our heat transfers. As we like to say around here, “We’re more than just a heat transfer company.” Our company’s ethos is manifested in our belief that anything is possible and in our aspirations to help others make it. In one sense, by ‘make it’, we help in the making of t-shirts, caps and bags – but what we are really saying is that we help people make it in business and in life. We are forever linked to our Supafam (our beloved customers) because we only exist because of them. When they win, we win. Our success is predicated on how we help people grow, not by how much Supacolor we sell. A heat transfer isn’t much of anything unless it is applied to a garment. In the same way, Supacolor isn’t much of anything without its Supafam community. We’re incredibly grateful to everyone that helped us grow and we are committed to helping those around us do the same.
Screen printing - it's in our DNA.
Supacolor was created by decorators for decorators. The founding partners of Supacolor, Bill Armitt, Mike Modgill and myself, all have experience running our own garment decorating businesses – screen printing is in our DNA. We understand the risks and challenges decorators face every day.
And more specifically, we know the challenges of printing multi-colored designs with gradients on complex fabrics, whether using inks or threads. For example, the combo of a 6-color design and a 10-piece job would make most decorators run for the hills. Running these jobs didn’t make any sense. While everyone else saw a barrier, we saw an opportunity and jumped all over it.
Supacolor was created to solve problems for screen printers and embroidery shops. Allowing them to say yes, when before the answer was no. With Supacolor and a heat press, you could now print anywhere. You no longer needed expensive equipment, a lot of space, or skilled, experienced printers. Creating freedom and opportunity for decorators to grow their business in ways that complemented what they were already doing.
The ambition to solve the problem of printing multi-colored designs was the motivation for inventing Supacolor. Bill and Mike talked about this frequently back then – they didn’t want to stop the carousel presses to screen print complex jobs, but they also didn’t want to turn away customers. They just knew there had to be a better way.
So, they set out on a journey that would see them innovate, collaborate and ultimately bring people all over the world together.
The Birth of Supacolor
The early days were challenging. Bill and Mike had to find a digital offset press. Getting access to something like this wasn’t easy, especially when it was very experimental. Sticking PET Film through a press could damage it. But they found a used one for sale and made a big bet on the future. With the digital front end in-hand, the guys had to find a way to screen print the rest of the transfer.
Believe it or not, Bill was screen printing the back of the transfers on a hand bench trying to get the registration on point. The limitations and the inaccessibility to equipment didn’t stop them, because the hustler never quits. The one thing that our entire Supateam has always had in common is that we are obsessed problem-solvers. Relentless in the quest to find something better, Supacolor was born.
What is a Supacolor transfer anyway?
You’ve probably heard us say Supacolor is the “World’s Best Heat Transfer.” You might think that we’re being arrogant by saying this, but we really believe it. Let me tell you why. Its beauty lies in the simplicity of its construction and the versatility of its performance.
To start, the construction and design of the transfer is elegant. Every Supacolor is created with a combination of digital printing and screen printing techniques, making it a true hybrid transfer.
On the front end, we use the very best digital offset press technology to print every color except white. These half-million-dollar presses are set up with seven colors (cyan, magenta, yellow, black, violet, orange and silver), giving us a broad spectrum of colors that are unmatched in the industry.
Our printing capabilities include Pantone color matching (think T-mobile pink or Coca-Cola red), printing CMYK and specialty matte metallics. We can print graphics super sharp. I’m talking about line weights as small as 1 pt (0.35 mm), so you can print small details. Every. Tiny. One.
We finish each heat transfer off with one of three different kinds of adhesives to print on various fabrics. What’s different about Supaoclor is that we’ve created unique transfers specifically suited for different materials. Why? Because we want our transfers to last longer than the products they are applied to. It doesn’t matter if it’s t-shirts, sweaters, caps or bags. Supacolor’s formula is designed to make the transfer look good for as long as possible. That’s why they’re wash tested by a third party lab and proven to last more than 70 washes. We want your designs to look amazing, even when the garment is wearing out. If you don’t look good, we don’t look good.
Let’s go back to the start
The real magic of making Supacolor actually starts before we even get to the processes I’ve just described. It begins on the front end with our prepress team: Supaflow. This is where our team prepares the submitted artwork. Anyone that has been in the print industry for even a short while knows that you’re only as good as the artwork you get.
Our team goes to great lengths to ensure that every graphic submitted to us is treated with the utmost care and given the attention it needs to print optimally. This means that if we need to redraw your artwork, we will. At no extra charge. It’s our way of making sure every Supacolor is made to the highest standard.
The Bottom Line
When you add up the sum of the parts – digital printing, screen printing and Supaflow – you can see why we end up with the World’s Best Heat Transfer. A transfer that we proudly serve up daily, to thousands of customers every month. Each step of the way, we inspect and assure our quality. When we don’t get it right, we don’t blame our customers. We take ownership and make it right, because we’re guided by our daily mantra: Supafast. Supaeasy. Supacolor.
This is more than a marketing line. It’s who we are.
We are Supafast: We understand that a quick turnaround time is critical in this industry.
We are Supaeasy: Nothing is too much trouble. We make it easy for everyone involved.
We are Supacolor: We take pride in everything we do. We don’t settle for good; we aim for great.
I’ve said it before: we are more than just a heat transfer company. We are Supacolor. Everything we do is about the people. It always has been, and always will be. What we do and how we do it isn’t as important as why we do it.
Why do we do it? To help you make it, in business and in life. So let me ask you: how can we help you make it?
By: Marshall Atkinson
Do you remember March of 2020? I do. That’s when the NBA shut down due to COVID-19 and the rest of the world followed suit. I won’t bore you with details because you already know them.
Since then, just about everyone has mastered the art of working out of their cave. You know. Your office. Your shop. Your kitchen table. Wherever you want, just as long as it isn’t around people.
The “Great Resignation” happened as people found out after they were laid off that they didn’t want to go back to whatever they were doing before. A gigantic chunk of people started their own business. Maybe you were one of them. If so, congratulations!
How’s that going?
Every business has its ups and downs, and hopefully, you are steadily growing. Believe me, all of your fellow entrepreneurs appreciate the struggle.
But the time is now for you and everyone else to take a step forward and get out of the cave.
Go See People
I’m a big believer is human to human business practices. Nobody does business with an enemy. The more your customers like you, the more they will buy from you.
Sure, we have the technology to bridge distances with video calls so I can see your face. (I love that by the way.) But, let’s take that one step further.
Show up in person. That’s right.
Don’t just sit there behind your webcam, emerge from the cave and pay some personal attention to your best customers. Go see them.
● Don’t ship them their next order, hand-deliver it. ● Come by their office with a gallon of chocolate ice cream and a box of cones. ● Show up when they open with donuts or bagels and a gallon of coffee. ● Participate in their Habitat for Humanity build. ● Walk side by side with them on their next Breast Cancer Awareness march. ● Invite them to a trade show and escort them around the floor, brainstorming on ideas continuously.
You get the idea. Interact with your customers on a human level. Focus on building and strengthening the relationship with a higher level of engagement than we’ve been doing over the last few years.
Ask yourself, “What can we do to surprise and delight our best customers today?” Then do it.
Go Get New Ideas
Another reason to leave the cave is to acquire new ideas.
Sure, you can Google just about anything, and probably do, but often the real inspiration comes from the serendipitous moment that comes from taking a class, walking a trade show floor, and interacting with people in other industries.
The spark of creativity happens when you are open to receiving “the new.” This happens when something catches your eye, and you stop. “Hey, what’s this thing?”, you ask.
In that brief moment, there are opportunities and possibilities in front of you for your taking. But like they say, “You must be present to win.”
This is why I attend trade shows, conferences, networking events, classes, and really anything that has fun and interesting people presenting new ideas. Sure, there is a reason to go…the event. But, I’ve found that on the outskirts of the event is where the true action happens. In the line for coffee. About 8:45 pm at the bar. Sitting next to me at the presentation, or organized lunch. You just have to be receptive to what destiny places before you.
In college, seemingly a million years ago, I took a leadership class. The one takeaway that has stuck with me all these years is the phrase, “Your best friend is only a handshake away.”
Here’s a secret. I really don’t like to go to events where I don’t know anyone. Especially when I’m going by myself. It always feels weird and awkward. If you know one or two people at the event, it may seem safer to try to hang out with them. But I’ve found that if I make it my mission to find one to three new people to introduce myself to and start a conversation, then I’m OK.
I’ll open up, and start asking easy questions.
Getting out of my cave and networking this way has been the number one method of developing my industry connections, deepening relationships, and finding new business opportunities. You can post all you want on social media, and there truly is a place for that, but if you want to grow your business into something solid, the real relationships you make can be an integral driver of that success.
People want to do business with other people that they know, like, and trust. In-person discussions are absolutely essential to building that. New ideas spring from discovering new relationships.
Go Have New Experiences
Everything you have ever done in your life, both from a positive and negative perspective, has led you to where you are now.
Even when you have crappy customer service at a restaurant or when shopping in a store, has built your ideas on how you think something should be performed.
Your interactions with other companies and their staff can help you implement better processes and experiences in your own business. The sensory encounter of walking into a bakery and smelling the fresh bread, or opening the door to a gym and getting a noseful of sweaty effort can be opportunities for you if you are open to them. You just have to connect the dots to what you are doing now.
When I was an art director, a couple of times a year, I took the staff to the mall for a field trip and then lunch. We would go through a dozen stores reviewing their apparel lines. Colors, designs, motifs, print applications, textures, finishes…we would intake it all. Then, over lunch, we would digest what we saw. What stood out? Were there any ideas that we could use for our own clients?
What do you see when you get out of your cave? Are you open to fresh ideas? Pay attention to what you react to and why. What pleases you? Are there things or policies that make you upset? Who has the best and most frictionless way of doing business?
In your pocket right now is a magical device. Your cell phone. Use that to take pictures or videos to review later. Send a note to yourself with a few bullet points.
When you venture out of your cave, use the experiences as a well-spring for fresh ideas that you can deploy in your own business.
Make Time To Go
Emerging from the cave can be difficult. You have orders to fill. Sales call to make. Stuff to do.
I get it.
What is the number one reason (excuse) as to why any reader of this article won’t emerge from their office and be present somewhere else?
“We are just too busy.”
This is why I want to introduce you to a concept called ROI. You may think that ROI is an acronym for “Return on Investment,” but you’d be wrong. In my way of thinking it stands for “Return on Intent.”
Return on Intent means that the action that we are doing has meaning. It is purposeful. Meaningful. Intentful.
This is how you quantify and justify the time and money you spend taking these “out-of-office” actions. Can you describe the result that you want to have by taking the out-of-office action? Could you even go so far as to rate that result on a scale of 0 to 10?
For example, let’s say that you went to a chamber of commerce networking event or a local business trade show. These happen all the time. There may be one right around the corner from you now. In the past, you went because of some industry obligatory pressure. It is just the thing to do.
But if you were purposeful in your intent, and knew the result that you wanted to achieve, you may have a different experience. For the sake of discussion, let’s say you have two objectives by attending.
Network and meet new people to develop relationships.
Discover new business opportunities, ideas, techniques, or methods to use.
At the event, you notice Monica who is one of your top customers. She is speaking with two people. You wave hello, and she motions you over. Monica then introduces you to the people she is chatting with, Dave and Tony. They operate a business in a different industry than Monica’s.
Monica says, “I was just telling them about how they need help with their employee retention problem by revamping their branding and internal merchandising for their staff. You should share with them how you have helped me with that online store for our employees."
That conversation won’t happen if you are stuck in your office being busy today. It certainly won’t happen if you don’t have a personal relationship with Monica. If she doesn’t know you well enough to trust you and wave you over, then that opportunity doesn’t present itself.
If all Monica does is send you Purchase Orders that you fulfill, what happens when she gets promoted? Does the rest of the staff know you and trust you?
You need to make time to go so that Monica waves you over at the crowded event, gushing about how you saved the day for her. All the previous visits and in-person time you have spent with her earned that introduction to your next customer.
Those past experiences with other people stack into a valuable trusting relationship when they develop over time.
If You Go, Say Hello
Be prepared to introduce yourself. To hand out business cards. Have a few ready-to-use ice-breaker questions to ask. Here are some of my favorites:
“Tell me about your business?”
“Right now, what is your biggest challenge that you are facing and working to overcome?”
“What’s the biggest disruption in your business right now?”
But it really doesn’t matter what you ask, your main job is to get the conversation started. Ask good follow-up questions that can’t be answered with a Yes or a No. You want them to tell stories about their lives or their business.
If you are like me and struggle with remembering names, try to work their name into the conversation a few times so you can have a chance of remembering it later.
The worst thing you can do at an event is to walk around and not talk to anyone. If you go with more than one person, do yourself a favor and split up. Go your separate ways. Sit and talk with new people. You already know the people you rode in the car with. Meet up later and compare notes. Who did you meet? What was the best trade show booth? Did anyone have a really interesting conversation?
Be sure to follow up immediately after the event. I like to do it the same day if I can, but otherwise, it is always the following day. Have a process.
Take the Get Out Of Your Cave Challenge
So let’s end this article with a throw-down. Take the “Get Out Of Your Cave SupaChallenge.” Put this article to the test.
Be purposeful.
Go see a customer. Attend a trade show. Help a philanthropy. Organize your own event. It doesn’t matter what you do, as long as it isn’t in your office. Get out of your cave and expand your experiences. Be open to opportunities.
If you find something good, share it! Use #supachallenge and report back on Twitter or Instagram. We want to share your discovery or victory too!

Garment Printing Industry Leader Shakes Things Up with New Offering
March 1st, 2022 (Los Angeles, CA.) -Supacolour, makers of The World’s Best Heat Transfer™, has announced that their Supafam will now be able to submit multiple designs (a process known as ganging) on a single heat transfer sheet.
Previously, Supacolour was only sold as a single image per sheet, cut and ready to press. Due to popular demand, Supacolour has now introduced a long awaited 300 x 420 ‘Supagang’ option to its product line.
The Supagang transfer allows garment printers to submit several of the same design, or even different designs, on the same sheet. Supacolour’s hybrid of screen & digitally printed premium transfers all feature a 6-colour process, providing reliable CMYK and Pantone colour reproduction. There’s no limit to the number of colours that can be used.
A heat transfer gang sheet is the best way to maximize use of the full area of the transfer, specifically when a garment printer has a need for multiple designs, or when they have a single design needed in more than one size. As with all Supacolour transfers, gang sheets will have no set up fees and will be created and shipped Supafast and Supaeasy.
Supagang features:
-Put multiple images on an A3 sheet 300×420
-Same Supafast delivery
-Same full colour, Supasoft, premium durability
-Available in Wearable, Blocker and Softshell Bloc
