But not all printing methods are created equal. That’s where DTF (Direct to Film) Transfers come in—offering a flexible, affordable solution that’s quickly becoming the favourite for businesses of all sizes.

4. Works on Any Fabric

DTF transfers are incredibly versatile and can be applied to a wide variety of materials including cotton, polyester, blends, hoodies, tote bags, hats, and more. This gives small businesses the freedom to offer a range of products without worrying about fabric limitations.
