Direct to Film Printing

Direct-to-film (DTF) is a printing technique that uses digital printing of an image onto a clear film with unlimited colors.

With heat, the printed image is transferred and fixated on the fabric.

DTF is effective on many materials; it can be applied to various fabrics, including cotton, polyester, synthetic fabrics, silk, and leather.

This printing technique provides excellent color accuracy and detail, is stretchable and durable, and looks fantastic. Additionally, DTF can print logos up to an impressive size of 50cm x 27cm, allowing you to showcase your brand or artwork prominently. Other advantages of DTF printing include low production costs and unlimited color options.
