Textile transfer explained Textile transfer is much more than a simple printing method. It combines limitless creativity with high-quality textile printing. Let’s take a closer look at this technique that is transforming the way we bring ideas to life.
DTF technology can be applied to almost any type of textile, as long as the material can withstand temperatures of around 150°C. The ink used is also described as “elastic”, making it highly resistant. Finally, DTF heat transfer allows an unlimited number of colours to be printed, unlike traditional flex.
DTF marking is one of the best solutions for achieving high-quality textile printing, whether for clothing, tote bags, shoes and more.
