Product Information
Metatran Foil Transfer System
The Metatran Foil Transfer System comprises a screen 
printable adhesive plus heat transfer foils, for the production 
of mirror finish metallic prints onto cotton and many synthetic 
fabrics.
Metatran Adhesive is first printed and partially cured on the 
substrate. Metatran foil, carried on a polyester film, is  then 
applied by heat press. Removing the polyester carrier film 
leaves the metallic foil adhered to the printed adhesive.
A two-step transfer process may alternatively be used.
The end uses of foil transfers are novelty and fashion.
Metatran Adhesive and Metatran Foils are Phthalate Compliant

Production of Metatran Foil Transfers
Three options are available for the production of foil transfers:
Method 1: Hybrid Transfer System
Print image using Metatran Adhesive directly onto the fabric, set 
and then apply Metatran foil to adhesive image using a transfer 
press.
Mesh: 34-62.
Drying: Heat Set at 120-140°C for 1-2 minutes.
Transfer Schedule: 170-180°C for 15-20 seconds.
(Allow the transfer to cool before removing the foil.)
Method 2: Two Step Transfer Process
Print Metatran Adhesive image onto transfer paper, then transfer 
onto the garment. Allow to cool, then transfer Metatran foil onto 
the adhesive.
Mesh: 43-62.

(Allow adhesive transfer and foil transfer to cool before removing 
carrier.)
Method 3: Short Run Printing
For short runs, the Metatran Adhesive may be printed directly onto 
the foil and then transferred.  The foil should be held in place by a 
vacuum table.

Due to the complex nature of decorating garments with transfers, 
customers must confirm suitability through pre-production 
testing.
