From industrial laundering and high-performance fabrics to personalization and supply chain compliance, decoration has become one of the most technical aspects of today's uniform industry.
In this episode of The Uniformer, Rick Levine talks with Haziel Mitchell, Commercial Director for North America at Supacolor, about how heat transfer technology is changing the way uniforms are branded. Haziel explains the differences between heat transfers, embroidery, and screen printing, why selecting the right transfer for each fabric matters, and how modern decoration can withstand demanding industrial wash environments.
The discussion also explores color accuracy for major brands, decorating soft-shell and technical garments, reflective and high-visibility applications, sustainability, RSL and OEKO-TEX compliance, and emerging technologies such as UV security markings and advanced personalization. Whether you manufacture uniforms, decorate apparel, or supply workwear and public safety garments, this episode offers valuable insight into the innovations shaping the future of garment decoration.
