Direct-to-Film (DTF) heat-transfer is a great decoration technique where high-resolution designs are printed onto a specialized PET DTF-film and then transferred to garments using a heat press. Unlike traditional methods, DTF heat-transfers use a unique adhesive that creates a strong, flexible bond between the ink and the fabric, making it the great choice for custom apparel.

Full-Color Decoration for Every Garment
DTF technology excels at producing vibrant, photographic-quality designs across various items.

Hats & Caps
DTF is ideal for headwear because the thin, flexible film easily conforms to the curved surfaces of baseball caps, and bucket hats.

T-Shirts
It provides a soft, professional finish on t-shirts, allowing for intricate details and smooth gradients that "move" with the fabric rather than feeling stiff.

Fabric Versatility
This method works on almost any material, including 100% cotton, polyester, nylon, leather, and blended fabrics, regardless of whether the garment is light or dark.

Why DTF is the Best Choice for Your Designs
Exceptional Print Quality: DTF supports unlimited colors and fine details, including small text and complex artwork, with a white ink underbase that ensures colors "pop" even on black garments.

Superior Durability
Modern DTF transfers are designed to withstand 50 to 100+ wash cycles without cracking, peeling, or fading.

Cost-Effective
Unlike heat-transfer vinyl (HTV), DTF requires no manual weeding of excess material, which significantly speeds up production and reduces costs. Because it is fast to print and to apply, makes it the most affordable decoration option.
