Why DTF has taken over
Direct-to-film avoids two common limits. Screen printing needs a separate screen per colour, so complex artwork gets expensive. DTG needs cotton, so it rules out most workwear. DTF handles both. A fifty-colour illustration costs the same to print as a one-colour logo, and it bonds to polyester hi-vis as well as cotton.
- Any fabric. Cotton, polyester, blends, nylon, canvas, softshell.
- Unlimited colours. Photographs, gradients and fine detail print at no extra cost.
- No minimum. One garment or five hundred, same process.
- Strong on dark garments. The white layer is built into the transfer, so colours stay bright on black.
The honest limitations
A DTF print sits on the surface of the fabric, so you can feel it under your fingers. It feels heavier than DTG and lighter than a heavy screen print. Large prints make the difference more noticeable. DTF also does not suit sustained high heat. For several hundred garments in one or two colours, screen printing costs less. We’ll tell you when that applies.
What it costs
DTF is priced per garment and gets cheaper with quantity. Print size makes the biggest difference. A left-chest logo costs less than a full back print. Tell us the garment, print size and quantity for a fixed price.
Artwork that prints well
Vector artwork (AI, EPS, PDF or SVG) scales to any size without softening. If you have a PNG or JPEG, send the largest version you can find, ideally 300dpi at final print size. We redraw logos during setup at no charge.
Common questions
How should I wash DTF prints?
Inside out at 30°C, no fabric softener on the print, and don’t iron directly over it. Follow the care guidance on your order to help the print last through regular wear.
Can you print on hi-vis and workwear?
Yes. Polyester hi-vis, softshells and work polos all take it well. We cannot print over a reflective strip, so we’ll place the logo around it.
What’s the difference between DTF and DTG?
DTG jets ink straight into cotton fibres and gives a softer feel; DTF bonds a printed film onto the surface and works on almost any fabric. If your garment is 100% cotton and you want the softest possible handle, we’d suggest DTG. For everything else, DTF.
Can I supply my own garments?
Yes. Bring them to the workshop or send them in. We’ll check the fabric is suitable before we press anything.
