What are DTF Transfers?

A DTF (Direct-To-Film) transfer is a form of heat transfer where an image is printed on a special PET film using innovative DTF printing techniques. It represents a significant leap forward in the heat transfer printing industry, offering unparalleled quality and versatility.

Components of a DTF Transfer

A direct-to-film transfer is not just a piece of film; it's a sophisticated, custom-printed product made up of three essential components:

- PET film: The PET film acts as the 'carrier' of the printed image. It's not just any film but a specialized surface that can hold the high-quality ink and adhesive necessary for the DTF process.

- Ink: The image on a DTF transfer is created using specially formulated DTF inks. These inks offer exceptional vibrancy and flexibility, contributing to the final high-quality, durable print.

- Hot melt powder: Applied to the printed ink on the PET film, the hot melt powder is the "glue" that ensures the printed image securely adheres to the substrate during heat pressing.
