A silicone mold is created to achieve specific shapes or designs. The most defining feature of 3D silicone transfers is their raised, tactile feel. The silicone tagless transfer is playable, soft, and can vary in height, depending on the amount of silicone used and the curing process. Silicone transfers are incredibly durable, resistant to cracking, peeling, or fading even with frequent washing and wear. This makes them ideal for premium apparel, sportswear branding, uniforms, and other garments subjected to heavy use. The silicone can be produced in various finishes, including matte, glossy, shiny, or even reflective finishes, depending on the desired look.
