Default Can PVC coated Tote Bags can be heat transfer?

I found a tote bag that I like, but in the description says it PVC coated. Can this tote bags be heat transfered?

Here is the link to the website where I found it: BAGedge BE018 Jelly Tote with Purse - T-ShirtWholesaler.com

I hope I'm not breaking any rules by posting the link to the website but if I am, I appologize. I guess the moderator can remove it.

Thank you guys.

PVC will usually melt in a heat press.

I have heat pressed them in the past.
You have to use a lower temp and time. Since they won't be washed you can do this.
Also it takes practice and you may need to make special spacers to put inside of bag.
Good luck.
