Direct to Film is our newest in-house printing method, a more eco-friendly alternative to traditional vinyl transfer prints. Suitable for use on an extensive range of fabrics, the process uses water based inks to achieve a consistently vibrant & durable print with excellent stretch qualities, making DTF a fantastic choice for sportswear. Requiring no 'weeding' of transfers, DTF printing not only minimises waste but is more suitable for complex designs too.
For our DTF Printing we chose machines from a company called Resolute. Being in the industry for over 40 years, Resolute are the largest UK based supplier of DTF printers & consumables & have led the way for many years in textile decoration. We know their experience & support helps us offer a quality finish that is hard to match. Moreover, Resolute are, like us, committed to contributing to more sustainable industry practices.
In a similar way to Direct to Garment printing, Direct to Film is a waterless process, however, unlike DTG, no pre-treatment is required. It is a very clean & odourless process, with little waste. The only waste produced is from the carrier film, however, work is underway to produce a carrier film made from recyclable materials. In comparison to traditional vinyl transfer prints, DTF has no application film & requires no weeding. The 'waste' adhesive powder can simply be re-used in the machine, further reducing waste. Once the transfers are printed, they are simply applied using a heat press to firmly adhere them to the garment!
Essentially like a large, inkjet printer, the DTF machine prints the coloured images on to the carrier film before adding a layer of white ink to ensure vibrancy of colour. The film then passes through an adhesive hopper which shakes the adhesive powder evenly over the back of the transfers. After this, an integrated drying unit dries the transfers &, just like that, we have a sheet of smart looking transfers ready to apply to our customers chosen garments.
