Direct to Film (or DTF) printing is a two-part process where ink is transferred to a film in a mirror image of the desired design and then, from that film to the surface of a garment. Heat, pressure, and curing powders are then applied to produce a high-resolution imprint with exact detail and perfect color accuracy.

The primary benefit of DTF is the quality of the image produced, not to mention the considerable flexibility and wide range of materials available like eco-friendly inks, dark fabrics, and fabrics with pre-existing patterns (many of which we offer in our shop), but you can also apply DTF film to non-textile surfaces like wood or canvas. If image fidelity is important to you or you need a design printed onto an unconventional surface, DTF is the method for you.
