Workwear: “Safety first”

In today’s working world, standardised workwear is the norm. Whether it is formal business attire or personalised safety clothing – work uniforms play a role in almost every profession. It is at least as important as the work uniform itself to tailor it to the specific company. Logos and advertising slogans on workwear serve not only to identify a company’s staff, but also as a flagship and advertisement for the business. You should therefore choose your workwear carefully and have any customisation carried out professionally.

Here, we’ll show youhowyou can customise your own workwear using our wide range of flex films!

YOW! also offers a wide range of high-quality workwear. Whether it’s classic formal businesswear, practicalworkwearor professionalsafety clothing: with our extensive range, there are no limits to your choice and you can select the perfect combination for your business needs. Furthermore, we ensure that the items we offer are made from materials that can be easily and seamlessly finished using various printing techniques. This allows you to remain flexible and benefit from both practical workwear and excellent opportunities for customisation.

We’ve opted for eye-catching neon high-visibility vests and matching caps.

To begin with, create your lettering using our DrawCut Pro software or import your chosen file into it. Measure the correct sizes in advance, as you will need smaller lettering for the cap. So make sure you set up the correct format for both the high-visibility vest and the cap.

First, choose the film you like best. This could be in several colours, or flock or flex film – whatever takes your fancy. Load the plotter film into a cutting plotter and click on the knife icon in the top column to start the cutting job. Don’t forget to mirror the design! Once the cutting plotter has finished, you can cut out the plotted area using one of our film cutters. Now it’s time for weeding – take your time and do it carefully so as not to damage anything. Now cut away the excess film so that only the lettering is actually heat-pressed.

For the caps, we use the cap press, which comes with a range of attachments. This means it can be adjusted to suit different sizes.

For the high-visibility vests, you are free to choose which heat transfer press you would like to use. We have a wide range to choose from. The process is the same for both: position your garment and place the plot of your company name in the correct position. We have chosen the exact colours of our company logo: a lighter and a darker grey with a shimmering effect.

Now set the press to 160°C for 8–10 seconds using the relevant dial. You can confirm this by clicking it briefly. Wait until the transfer press has heated up completely. Simply adjust the pressure using the large screw, and you’re all set. Only now can you pull the lever down to start the pressing process.

Allow it to cool briefly, then peel off the film; press for a further 10 seconds or so and you’ll have a great result!
