DTF Printing Services in the Philippines
Vibrant, durable, full-color prints on any fabric. From custom t-shirts and jerseys to corporate uniforms and merchandise — we deliver professional DTF printing with no minimum orders.
What is DTF Printing?
DTF (Direct-to-Film) is a modern printing technology that transfers vibrant, full-color designs from a special film onto fabric using heat and adhesive powder. Unlike traditional methods, DTF works on virtually any fabric type and delivers photo-quality results.
- 1
Design is Printed on Film
Your design is printed in full color onto a special PET transfer film using DTF ink.
- 2
Adhesive Powder is Applied
A fine adhesive powder is evenly distributed across the printed film for strong bonding.
- 3
Film is Cured with Heat
The film passes through a curing oven to melt the powder and activate the adhesive.
- 4
Transfer is Heat-Pressed
The cured film is placed on your garment and heat-pressed at high temperature for a permanent bond.
How DTF Works
The artwork is printed on transfer film, bonded with adhesive powder, then heat-pressed onto the garment.
