DTF Inks and Powder for Textile Printing

What Are DTF Inks?

DTF inks (Direct to Film) are water-based pigment inks designed for transferring images from film to fabric using a heat press. They deliver bright, elastic, and long-lasting prints that maintain color quality even after multiple washes.

The Role of DTF Powder in Printing

For the design to bond securely with the fabric, DTF powder (adhesive powder) is applied together with the inks.

• Applied immediately after printing onto the film.

• Creates an adhesive layer for better fixation.

• During heat transfer, the powder melts and ensures strong adhesion of the inks to fabric fibers.

DTF powder is a crucial element of the process, guaranteeing wash resistance, UV stability, and durability under mechanical stress.

Benefits of DTF Inks and Powder
