Unless specified otherwise Ultra Ink™ will be printed directly from your provided artwork. Please note that colors can look different from screen to print. Do not send your artwork in RGB color mode, RBG uses a different range of colors that cannot be achieved with CMYK printing.
Use Pantone colors or our stock colors in your artwork to ensure results. If using spot colors always be sure to verify selected colors with your Pantone Book. Ultra Ink™ is a CMYK process so 100% Pantone match is not guaranteed. All color matches must be called out when placing your order.

Frequently Asked Questions
We are here to help!
What are Apex Ultra Ink™ heat transfers?
Apex Ultra Ink™ heat transfers are a cutting-edge screen-print transfer solution that allows for unlimited colors and exceptional print quality. They are an innovative way to print full color, complex designs onto various fabrics, including cotton, polyester, blends, and more.
How do Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers work?
Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers utilize screen-printing technology to create high-resolution, multicolored designs. The artwork is first imaged on clear release film, and is then screen-printed with white backing onto a carrier sheet using eco-friendly, water-based inks. The carrier sheet is then applied to the garment using a heat press, transferring the design onto the fabric.
What makes Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers unique?
Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers stand out due to their ability to reproduce intricate, photorealistic designs with unlimited colors. Unlike traditional heat transfers, which are limited by the number of colors in the design, Ultra Ink™ offers a wide color gamut, ensuring accurate color representation and stunning visuals.
What types of fabrics can I use Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers on?
Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers are versatile and can be applied to various fabric types, including 100% cotton, polyester, cotton-poly blends, and performance fabrics. They adhere exceptionally well to both light and dark-colored garments, ensuring vibrant prints on any fabric color.
Are Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers durable and long-lasting?
Yes, Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers are designed to be durable and long-lasting. They exhibit excellent wash resistance and color retention, maintaining their vividness even after multiple wash cycles. When properly applied and cared for, the transfers will maintain their quality and appearance for a very long time.
What is the difference between sublimation and ink transfer?
Sublimation uses heat to turn ink into gas, bonding it permanently to polyester or coated surfaces. Ink transfer applies ink onto a surface using adhesives or heat but doesn’t chemically bond like sublimation, making it less durable.

Are Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers eco-friendly?
Yes, Apex Ultra Ink™ transfers are eco-friendly and use water-based inks, reducing environmental impact compared to traditional plastisol inks. The eco-conscious Oeko-Tex® formulation ensures safe and sustainable heat transfers.
What file formats are compatible with Ultra Ink™ transfers?
