Swarovski Flat Backs - General Information

Even though, in Swarovski lexicon, the term is "Flat Back", it seems that most people will more frequently spell it as "flatback" (one word). Therefore I will use both terms interchangeably, to mean the same thing.

Swarovski Flat Backs are loose crystal elements with a flat reverse side.

Generally, flatbacks with no Hotfix on the reverse, have an exclusive Swarovski Platinum Foiling (F) to create maximum brilliance.

Flatbacks with Hotfix will usually have an aluminium mirror finish on the reverse side as well as a pre-coating of heat sensitive glue. These are heat-applied (e.g. ironing on) to a wide range of carrier materials. They are durable and long lasting.

See more details on Foiling, How to iron on, with Recommended Heat Temperatures.
