DTF printing ("Direct-to-Film") has your design digitally printed onto a carrier film and then pressed onto the product under heat. The advantages are:
- brilliant prints, including fine lines
- absolutely colourfast
- extreme durability
For special materials – direct-to-film
The DTF process is especially suitable when a tougher material is being printed. Caps and bags are a prime example here. We also use the direct-to-film process instead of digital-direct printing with the particularly fine fibres of polyester shirts.
Here's what you need to keep in mind with your designs
For perfect print result with the direct-to-film method, your designs need a few prerequisites.
