Direct-to-Film (DTF)
Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing is a cutting-edge method that allows full-colour designs to be printed onto a special film, which is then heat-transferred onto garments using a heat press. This process produces vibrant, detailed prints that work on a wide range of fabrics - including cotton, polyester, blends, and even dark garments. DTF is the latest in technology and is far superior to digital vinyl heat transfer.
What is DTF Used For?
DTF is ideal for workwear, uniforms, promotional apparel, and custom designs. It’s especially useful for logos and complex artwork.
