Printing Methods & Quality
We specialize in DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing, which produces vibrant, full-color designs on any fabric type. We also offer embroidery for a premium, professional look, and 3D silicon patches for unique branding. Each method has specific advantages depending on your needs.
DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing transfers designs from a special film onto fabric using heat and adhesive powder. It's superior because it works on ANY fabric (cotton, polyester, blends), produces vibrant full-color prints, requires no pre-treatment, has no minimums, and lasts 50+ washes.
Yes! Our DTF printing technology works perfectly on any color fabric, including black and dark colors. The white ink underlayer ensures your designs look vibrant and true to color on any shirt color.
Our DTF prints are extremely durable, lasting 50+ wash cycles while maintaining vibrant colors. The prints are soft, flexible, and won't crack or peel when properly cared for. We use eco-friendly, water-based inks for long-lasting results.
We can print on t-shirts, hoodies, polo shirts, sweatshirts, tank tops, long sleeves, jerseys, and more. Our DTF printing works on cotton, polyester, tri-blends, performance fabrics, and even leather—all without any pre-treatment.
We can do both! We offer a wide selection of quality blank apparel from trusted brands, or you can provide your own garments if you prefer. Just let us know your preference when requesting a quote.
