Try ThermoFLOCK instead of embroidery

You can’t really tell from the picture, but the golf towel and all the items in it have been decorated with CAD-CUT(R) Thermo-FLOCK(R). If you’ve got a client who needs golf towels but who doesn’t want, can’t afford or can’t wait for screen printing or embroidery, Thermo-FLOCK(R) is an ideal solution. It seems like I’ve been promoting this idea for over 20 years, but it is a message that bears repeating. Once you work with Thermo-FLOCK, whether you cut it yourself, order it from our custom cutting services or use pre-cut lettering, you and your customers will be amazed at the soft, raised texture that isn’t scratchy like embroidery. It’s actually perfect for use on towels and it’s a heck of a lot less expensive. Plus, you can do any quantity and still make a profit. If you’re doing a golf tournament, you could personalize each towel with the participants name or initials for a great registration gift. Or with a sponsor’s name, even if it’s a last minute sponsor. There’s no reason to be afraid of trying Thermo-FLOCK(R) if you’ve never used it. It is truly one of the easiest heat transfer materials to work with and the results are always wonderful.  It is one of our biggest selling products in Europe, where it is widely used for soccer uniforms and many other sports. But once you get to know Thermo-FLOCK, you’ll see how many uses there are for it. It’s also great for layering or using in multi-media designs. From towels for bowling and golf to personalizing baby clothes (it’s so soft and there is no scratchy background like with embroidery), to classy looking raised corporate logos on polo shirts or caps.

  • Hi Ted,

    One issue I have with the prespaced player names that we have ordered in flock, is really the way the cut the mylar backing that it comes on. There is no straight edge from which we can square up and cut.
    As a suggestion I think the edge on the same side the name/word starts should be square,straight so we can reference from that side to cut the pieces.

    Another question is, how is the color fastnest on the thermo flock?

    Funny you should mention this…we are currently working on an improvement in this area (it’s going through the patent process). But I understand your frustration and as soon as we can improve this issue, believe me, we will. Regarding the wash fastness of our Thermo-FLOCK, as long as you follow the recommended application and washing instructions, you should be good to go.
