Specifically designed for these materials, the Rigid Media Dye Sublimation Paper gives users “maximum print accuracy and solves the problem of gas blemishes and bubbling”, explains the brand. Due to its unique construction, I-Sub says its easy-to-use paper is able to transfer the inks perfectly to these difficult substrates when used with the optimum printer, profile and heat press. The paper is stocked in two widths – 1,118mm and 1,620mm – at the brand’s office in Kettering, UK. www.i-sub.co.uk Stocks Sewing Machines : Isacord embroidery threads ”Isacord polyester continuous filament embroidery thread is one of the most popular embroidery threads for commercial and industrial embroidery machines,” says Stocks. “With over 390 different colours, Isacord offers endless possibilities, and a guarantee that every embroiderer will find the right colour for their work.” According to the company, Isacord embroidery threads are suitable for a vast range of applications, including home interior, apparel, automotive, shoes and leather, as they are “abrasion-resistant, robust and hold excellent colour-fastness”. The durability of the threads also makes them perfect for embroidery on tougher textiles, such as jeans, adds Stocks. Amann Group, which manufactures Isacord, also offers Serafil Fine, Isamet Metallic, Isa Texlight glow-in-the-dark and much more. Stocks sells Isacord embroidery threads in both 1,000m and 5,000m cones; it also offers backings, toppings, bobbins, scissors and machine accessories. www.stocks.co.uk Ralawise: Ralaflex Universal All- Purpose Film “If you’re after an all-purpose film, look no further than the Ralaflex Universal (RF015),” says Ralawise. “This film is worlds apart from its competition and can be used on almost any fabric.
