Great for – full colour images onto any garment.
Not so good for – one-offs, where a pantone matched print colour is needed or tight turnaround
DTF (direct to film) uses the latest technology to produce vibrant, durable prints onto almost any garments. They have a soft feel and can reproduce complex images in full colour.
As this is a digital process we can’t match specific pantone references but most colours re-produce fairly accurately. Although we can print just one item this way they are most cost effective on quantities of ten or above and smaller images will cost less than larger ones.
Lead time is usually one to two weeks.
Guide cost for 20 T-shirts with a left chest size print is £12 each. For 50, price per shirt is usually between £9.30 and £11.75 depending on the print size and there are further discounts for larger quantities.
Recent examples include 40 T-shirts for a promotional event for a local craft brewery, 20 sweatshirts for an amateur dramatic production and 80 staff T-shirts for one of the University museums.
