DTF (Direct to Film)

Definition

A digital printing method where artwork is printed onto a PET film, coated with hot-melt adhesive powder, cured, and then heat-pressed onto the garment. DTF works on virtually any fabric colour or type, requires no pre-treatment, and produces vibrant, opaque prints. It bridges the gap between DTG's versatility and screen printing's opacity, making it increasingly popular for small-to-medium runs.
