HIX MUG WRAPS
Why use HIX 2-Step Mug Wraps?
Sublimating is a “Snap” with HIX 2-Step Wraps!
For sublimation to occur, a dye needs to be heated in order to sublimate into a gas.
Pressure is needed to create a proper contact with the substrate and to ensure a
detailed definition of the final image.
Traditional mug presses combine both compression and heating in one device.
The advantage of the HIX Mug Wrap is that it separates these two actions: the
wrap provides the pressure, while your Countertop SubliPro Oven provides the
heat. This provides greater reliability than traditional mug presses and reduced
maintenance costs.
Our wraps provide a quick snap-on solution. Simply position and tape your artwork
to virtually any type of drinking vessel. Then, wrap the substrate and artwork with
the fitting HIX Wrap. That’s it! You are ready to sublimate!!
The advantage of the HIX Wrap is its patented tool-less 2-step clasping technology.
No other mug wrap on the market is as easy to apply or remove. There’s no fumbling
with awkward closing mechanism or wrenches, and no need for extra hands when
you’re trying to juggle endless adjustments while closing a clamp with screwdrivers
or other tools.HIX Wraps open and close with a simple “snap.”
The HIX Wrap has two settings: a first for substrates with handle, a second for
substrates without. The first setting is used for traditional 11oz and 15oz mugs and
provide a near 360 degree enclosure of the mug. The second setting is used for
substrates without handle and provides a complete 360 degree wrapping.
The 2-step clasp can be closed to the first “snap” for the substrates with handle,
and to the second “snap” for substrates without handle.
Substrates, artwork and wraps are now ready to be sublimated in your Countertop
SubliPro oven!

HIX 2-stepWraps can come in as many sizes and shapes as there are substrates in
