Pure & Vivid Colors
Our specially formulated DTF inks enable us to print deeper colors and a wider color gamut on our custom DTF transfers. Our color registration is performed to G7 Color Standards certified on a weekly basis for near-perfect machine linearization.
The DTF transfers industry’s brightest white ink with incredible stretchability. In fact every design, regardless if there is white in it, is underbased with white to ensure that there is never any dye migration — not even on nylon, polyester, or spandex.
The DTF transfer above is a 4 inch wide print. Look at the incredible detail you can achieve with any design without any connecting background or border on your design. Use DTF transfers in place of vinyl, screen printing, sublimation, and more.
