Wash Tests and Certifications
In the garment printing world, quality and safety are everything. That’s why we’re proud to make Supacolour in our own factories in New Zealand, the US and the UK. By keeping it in-house, we can ensure every transfer meets the highest standards from start to finish.
To back it up, our products go through serious testing—think rigorous lab tests run by certified third-party experts. These tests guarantee that Supacolour isn’t just high-quality; it’s also safe and fully compliant with industry regulations.
At Supacolour, we believe you shouldn’t have to choose between speed, ease, and quality. With us, you get it all: Supafast, Supaeasy, Supapremium, and Supasafe.
Because when your reputation’s on the line, only the best will do.
Wash Tests
We put our heat transfers to the ultimate test through an independent third-party, Intertek Testing Services — and the results were nothing short of impressive. Our prints stayed flawless, with no cracking or fading, all the way through 70 wash cycles. Even then, it was only after the 70th wash that a little bit of cracking started to appear.
When it comes to durability, Supacolour doesn’t just meet expectations—it smashes them.

OEKO-TEX®
Supacolor is certified with the coveted STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® - the gold standard for textile product testing for harmful substances. This label certifies that our transfers have been rigorously tested for toxicity against up to 350 chemicals.

CPSIA and Prop 65
When it comes to safety, we don’t mess around. The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) requires businesses to certify that products meet strict safety standards, including mandatory third-party testing for anything designed for kids. Proposition 65 takes it a step further, setting specific rules about the materials used.
The good news? Our water-based inks and adhesives, which are also phthalate-free and lead-free, passed every test with flying colours, proving it’s completely safe.
