DEFINITION
What is a DTF transfer?
DTF, or Direct To Film, is a digital textile transfer printing technique.
The design is printed directly onto a transfer film using a DTF printer. A heat-activated powder is then applied before passing through an oven. The transfer is then ready to be applied to the textile with a heat press.
This technology enables:
- Highly detailed DTF printing
- Vibrant and precise colors
- Excellent wash durability
- Soft feel
- Quick application
- Compatibility with most textiles
DTF transfer has become the standard for professional textile marking today.

How do you apply a DTF print on textile?
DTF transfers are applied very simply using a heat press.
To learn more, visit our page: DTF transfer application conditions
To ensure optimal DTF transfer, adjust your settings based on the type of textile used.
Thick fabric, such as a sweatshirt or tote bag, will often require higher temperature or stronger pressure.
For sensitive textiles, such as sublimated polyester, it is highly recommended to perform a preliminary test: pigment migration may appear several days after application and affect the visual.
Finally, keep in mind that each press may react differently, so don't hesitate to slightly adjust your parameters based on your equipment and tests. Good preparation beforehand is the key to a clean, durable, and professional result.
