What is DTF printing?
DTF printing is Digital Printing, which is a digital printing technology that is widely used in various fields. DTF printing uses transfer paper with a release type, and uses the characteristics of the hot melt adhesive powder to adhere to the ink to automatically position the hot melt adhesive powder to create a printing method that requires no cutting and no picking. The graphics on the transfer paper can be transferred to clothes through a heat transfer machine.
DTF printing has the following advantages:
- Wide color gamut and bright colors: DTF printing can provide a wide color gamut to achieve vibrant and vivid printing effects. DTF’s printing inks are professionally formulated to provide rich, saturated colors for print display, supporting everyday fashion brands and promotional items.
- Soft and breathable: DTF ink is absorbed into the fabric fibers to keep the clothes or fabrics with their original texture and feel, so DTF printing can retain the softness and breathability of the fabric. This is very important for clothing and home textiles, as good comfort and breathability make the customer feel good.
- High color fastness: DTF printing has excellent adhesion to textiles, leather, synthetic materials, etc. The addition of DTF hot melt adhesive powder during the printing process helps the ink adhere firmly to these surfaces, ensuring the durability of the finished print.
- Low cost: The printer equipment and consumables required for DTF printing are less expensive than other printing methods, but the economic benefits are very high. DTF printing is different from traditional printing. It does not require a lot of inventory. It supports on-demand printing and small batch production, which can save costs.
