DTF PRINTING
Why Customers Are Switching To Transfers
Direct-to-Film (DTF) transfers have emerged as the ultimate solution for printing enthusiasts who are looking for faster printing, vibrant colors, and sharper details. Unlike traditional methods like vinyl transfers and screen printing, DTF transfers offer the freedom to print whatever you want at a lower cost without any additional requirements like printed back stock or vinyl weeding.
As a result, an overwhelming majority of our customers have migrated to DTF transfers, and for good reason. The technology behind DTF transfers provides extensive benefits that were not previously attainable through traditional printing methods. DTF transfers offer higher resolution printing, more accurate color reproduction, and more versatility in terms of the substrates that can be printed on.
Moreover, DTF transfers are eco-friendly and cost-efficient compared to their alternatives. By utilizing direct-to-film printing, there is no need for any additional setup like screen preparation or back stock printing, which significantly reduces the environmental impact of printing. Additionally, DTF transfers also enable customers to print smaller quantities more cost-effectively than traditional methods that offer the more significant economies of scale for larger batches.
In conclusion, DTF transfers have gained popularity among printing enthusiasts for their superior quality, faster printing, and cost-efficacy. By removing the need for additional preparations and setup costs, printing with DTF transfers can be an excellent choice for those seeking a high-quality printing experience, free of inconvenience and waste.

What is DTF Transfers?
We are sure you've heard of DTF printing before but may not be familiar with how it works or perhaps you got it confused with DTG printing.
DTF stands for Direct To Film. This is the latest imprint technique allowing full color designs to print onto a film and then transferring it to a T-shirt made of cotton, polyester, or their blends, regardless of their color, as it can work with white ink.
Is there a minimum I can order?
No Minimums! With this new printing method you can order as many Gang sheets as you need. Whether you need 1 or 100,000 we can do itI!
What kind of heat press do I need?
A iron sitting in your closet can do the job but we recommend customers to purchase a 16"x20" heat press as you never know when a big print will be needed.
How Long Do DTF Transfers Last?
The longevity of DTF transfers depends on a number of factors, including the quality of the fabric the transfer is applied to, and how the shirt is cared for. Generally speaking, DTF transfers can last for several washings. We recommend avoiding softeners and high temps when washing and that you wash your garments inside out.
Do you offer Hot Peel Transfers?
At this time we only offer cold peel. Check back often for new updates.
How do I setup a Gang Sheet?
