Exclusive Ability to Stretch
DG Rubber is the next generation of PU heat transfer media invented by thousands of trials and tests. It is aimed to develop the best formula to leverage the ability and up ceiling the standard of general PU heat transfer media in the market. The secret formula has equipped it with special ability to stretch up to three times of its original width. This gifted ability is not only widening its application to highly stretchable fabrics on sport and swim wear such as lycra and spandex, it also enhances the durability of printed graphics against cracks and deformation after washing.
Exclusive Glamorous Shinnying Printing Finish
DG Rubber is revolutionized from general PU heat transfer media for all rounded improvement. Its secret formula has brought PU heat transfer media to the next level in printed quality.
