What Are DTF Transfers and Why Choose Them?
DTF transfers (Direct-to-Film transfers) represent the latest advancement in heat transfer printing technology. Unlike traditional vinyl or screen printing methods, DTF transfers allow for full-color, photographic-quality designs with unlimited color possibilities and intricate detail reproduction.
Our DTF transfer process involves printing designs onto specialized PET film using professional DTF inks, then applying hot melt adhesive powder for superior fabric bonding. The result is vibrant, soft-hand transfers that work on virtually any fabric type including cotton, polyester, blends, and even challenging materials like polyester performance wear.
Key advantages of our DTF transfers:
- No color limitations or registration issues
- Excellent washability and durability
- Soft, flexible feel after application
- Works on light and dark fabrics equally
- Cost-effective for both small and large runs
- Faster turnaround than traditional methods
