DTF Transfers
Full-Color DTF Transfers, Printed In-House
Photo-quality direct-to-film transfers with no minimums. Print loose for press-yourself customers, or we apply them for you.
What It Is
The Method
DTF (direct-to-film) prints your artwork onto a special film with CMYK + white ink, coats it with adhesive powder, and cures it, producing a finished transfer that heat presses onto almost any fabric. It's the most flexible decoration method we offer: no screens, no color charges, no minimums, and full photographic detail. Ideal for small runs, and complex artwork, full color art, fulfillment programs, and anything screen printing can't economically reach.
Why North Ink
Every Step Under Our Roof
In-house production means we own the schedule, the quality, and the result.
In-House DTF Printer & Cure Line
Printing, powder, and curing all happen on our floor. No middleman, no shipping a film between vendors.
Photo Quality, Full Color
Complex artwork, gradients, fine detail, DTF prints what screen printing can't print.
Low Quantity
We can print as low as 2 3 prints
Soft Hand, Durable Wash
Properly cured DTF lays flat, stretches with the garment, and survives the laundry cycle after cycle.
Fast Turnaround
Because the whole process is in-house, we can turn transfers around quickly, including pressed-on-garment orders.
Works on Almost Anything
Cotton, poly, blends, performance fabrics, darks, lights, hats, bags, DTF adheres where other methods struggle.
