Direct to Film & Hat Patches

Beyond Screen Printing: Direct to Film Customization

While screen printing is the premier method for transferring designs onto garments, some projects require a different approach. Think team jerseys with personalized names and numbers or one-of-a-kind designs that wouldn’t be practical for traditional screen printing. In these cases, we turn to our state-of-the-art heat transfer technology to enhance your custom apparel.

What is Direct to Film (also known as DTF)?

Direct to Film (DTF) is a printing method that transfers custom designs onto fabric using a specialized film and adhesive powder. Once printed, the design is heat-pressed onto the garment, creating vibrant, long-lasting prints with excellent detail and flexibility. This technique is ideal for apparel, bags, and promotional products where color, durability, and precision matter.
