What Does HTV Stand For?

The Basics of Heat Transfer Vinyl / Iron On Vinyl

HTV stands for Heat Transfer Vinyl, a specialty vinyl polymer that can be cut, weeded, and heat applied to various fabrics and materials using a heat press or a simple iron. This versatile crafting medium is beloved for its ability to add vibrant graphics and text to garments and accessories.

Is HTV Different Than Iron-On?

Understanding HTV and Iron-On Vinyl

The terms HTV and Iron-On Vinyl are often used interchangeably in the crafting community because they refer to the same product. Both involve materials that require heat to transfer designs onto fabrics. The main difference is typically in terminology rather than product specification, making HTV a popular choice for both professional and casual crafters.
