The process of printing your image on key chain can be done by heat transfer or sublimation techniques. We have explained the technique in brief bellow:

  • Step 1: The photo is printed on a transfer paper with the use of sublimation ink, which can print in unlimited colors and shades. This paper has the complete photo printed on it as a mirror image, because on printing, the image reverses itself. The print size and shape is as per the size and shape of your key chain – which can be heart shaped, circular, square shaped or any other shape of your choice. The most common keychain size is around 4-5 Cm in Diameter in case of Circular Shape and 4-5 CM in With in case of Square/Rectangular shapes.

  • Step 2: The next step is transferring the photo on the key chain using a heat transfer machine or a heat press. Now, place the photo facing down into the keychain and attach it with heat tape. Keep it in the heat press machine, making sure there are no air pockets or space between the key chain and the photo. The photo gets transferred to the keychain-the photo is permanent –it will never wear off from the key chain. The process is usually complete within minutes. The keychain photo printing machine is shown below for your reference:
