dtf film
DTF (Direct to Film) film is a revolutionary printing transfer material designed specifically for the textile and garment decoration industry. This specialized polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film serves as a carrier for printing designs that can be transferred onto various fabric types. The film features a unique coating that allows for optimal ink adhesion while maintaining excellent release properties during the transfer process. Typically ranging from 75 to 100 microns in thickness, DTF film is engineered to withstand high temperatures during the printing and curing processes without warping or distorting. The film's surface treatment enables exceptional color vibrancy and detail retention, making it ideal for creating high-quality transfers for both light and dark fabrics. One of the most significant technological features of DTF film is its ability to work with water-based pigment inks, which are more environmentally friendly than traditional solvent-based alternatives. The film's structure includes a special anti-static layer that prevents dust accumulation during printing, ensuring clean and precise image transfer. Applications of DTF film span across various sectors, from custom t-shirt printing and sportswear manufacturing to promotional merchandise production and fashion design. The material's versatility allows for printing on cotton, polyester, nylon, and blended fabrics, making it a valuable solution for diverse printing needs.
