Description
Direct to Film printing is the latest trend in printing. Full color graphics are printed on a transfer film, then using a heat press the print is transferred onto a final product. The process is superior to DTG printing as it can be done on polyester blends as well as cotton, and the prints aren’t as thick as Plastisol prints giving a softer feel. DTF can even be used on products that used to be limited to cut and weeded graphics like hats, tote bags, virtually any fabric product.
