Full-colour printing on virtually any fabric – cotton, polyester, softshell and blended materials. We offer direct printing on textiles as well as DTF metre-roll sales for professional manufacturers.
🖨️ What is DTF Printing?
DTF (Direct to Film) is a modern textile printing technology where the design is first printed onto a PET film using special inks and then transferred directly onto the fabric using a heat press. Unlike traditional screen printing, no screen preparation is needed – you can order from just 1 piece.
DTF printing enables the reproduction of full-colour photos, gradients, shading and very fine details. The result is flexible, durable and holds even after dozens of wash cycles. Suitable for cotton, polyester, softshell, workwear, bags and much more.

⚠️ What DTF printing cannot do – and how we solve it
DTF printing is a versatile technology, but it has its limits. DTF transfers cannot print metallic, neon, or reflective effects. For these special effects, we have specialized solutions ready:
- ✨ Metallic Effect? → Metallic transfer – gold, silver, or bronze print with a perfect glossy effect.
- 🌟 Neon Colors? → Neon transfer – bold fluorescent colors that glow even in low light.
- 🔆 Reflective Effect? → Reflective transfer – a safety feature that reflects light, ideal for sportswear and workwear.
