DTF printing: full colour on any fabric
With DTF (Direct to Film), the design is printed onto a special film first and then heat-pressed onto the fabric. Any colour, gradient or fine detail comes out exactly.
There are no screens to make, so DTF suits small runs and orders where every piece needs a different name or number.
Best for
- Multi-colour logos, photos, gradients
- Small and medium runs
- Individual names and numbers
- Cotton, polyester, blends
Less suited to
- Large runs of a one-colour logo: screen printing is cheaper

Frequently asked questions
DTF or screen printing: which should I choose?
If your logo has many colours or gradients, or the run is small, choose DTF. For a one- or two-colour logo on a large run, screen printing is cheaper.
Does a DTF print survive washing?
Yes. With proper care (inside out, up to [XX]°C) the print doesn't crack and keeps its colour.
