  • Patent number: 4741791
    Abstract: A flocked transfer material for attachment to a fabric or other material comprises a release sheet. As the transfer material is cut into a preselected pattern, the release sheet holds unconnected portions of the pattern in the correct relative positions such that the entire pattern may be directly applied to a surface with precise registration in a single-step process.

  • Patent number: 4717621
    Abstract: A multi-layer labelling material for attachment to a textile fabric or the like. Labelling material comprises an outer layer of plastic material that provides the visual display of an indicium cut from the material, a bonding layer of thermoplastic material bonded on one surface to the labelling layer and a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive on the other surface of the bonding layer. The adhesive layer provides temporary adhesion of the indicium to the textile fabric until heat and pressure are applied to the indicium to activate the bonding layer. The bonding layer then forms a permanent bond to the fabric.
