DTF stands for direct-to-film printing, and it’s one of the most versatile t-shirt printing methods available in the industry. Different from the previous, this t-shirt printing technique requires a film to transfer the design to your t-shirt. The process can be done with different types of fabric.
How does DTF work?
In DTF printing, the design is first printed on a special film called PET film with water-based inks and a special powder that helps transfer designs. It’s then printed onto the t-shirt. The transfer from one surface to the other is done with a heat press machine, making the film peel off and leave an exact print on the garment.
Before receiving the print, the fabric needs to be dehumidified and pre-flattened. After the design is transferred (using an average temperature of 165°C), the film needs to be cold peeled. The fabric then goes through a second round of flattening to make the design last longer.
