DTF printing on textiles
DTF transfer is our main technique. It prints every colour, gradient and photo, on all textiles, from 1 item and with no setup fees. Two ways to benefit: we print your clothing, or we send you press-ready DTF sheets.
Customise a garment Order DTF sheets
How does it work?
Your artwork is printed in colour, with a white underbase, onto a film coated with an adhesive powder. The film is then heat-pressed onto the garment: the ink bonds to it and stays flexible. It is the technique used by our customisation tool, which shows you the result live.
Why choose DTF?
- All colours: photos, gradients, fine details from 1 mm.
- All textiles: cotton, polyester, blends, light or dark; low-temperature printing for polyester and puffer jackets.
- From 1 item: no minimum, no screen fees.
- Durability: soft, stretchy, washable at 40 °C.
Clothing printed with DTF
T-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, tote bags, caps, kids' clothing: choose your model, add your artwork and see the price live. As a guide, a printed Basic T-shirt 180 g costs €20 for 1 item, then the price drops as the quantity goes up (from €12 per item for 51 to 100).
Press-ready DTF sheets
Do you have a heat press? Order 35 × 40 cm DTF sheets, from €10 down to €5 per sheet depending on the quantity, with as many logos as you like on each sheet. We check your file free of charge. For application, follow our guide: how to apply a DTF transfer.
DTF or screen printing?
Up to around a hundred items, or whenever the artwork has lots of colours, DTF is the simplest and most economical. Beyond that, for a logo with few colours, screen printing becomes attractive.
