Direct-To-Film (DTF) Printing

Experience High Quality Graphics

The Direct-To-Film Transfer printing process, used by SonBurst Graphics LLC in Fort Gibson, OK, has surged in popularity and surpassed traditional methods like screen printing and heat transfer vinyl for several reasons:

Speed and Efficiency: Direct-To-Film Transfer significantly reduces production time and speeds up turnaround time compared to screen printing and heat transfer vinyl. With an average printing time of around 10 seconds per garment, it offers unmatched speed and efficiency, enabling quicker order fulfillment and turnaround times.

Versatility in Design: Unlike screen printing, which may be limited in the number of colors and complexity of designs, Direct-To-Film Transfer allows for the use of multiple colors and intricate details without additional setup or costs. This versatility in design makes it particularly appealing for customers seeking vibrant and visually striking clothing or promotional products.

Durability: Direct-To-Film Transfer produces designs that are durable and long-lasting, capable of withstanding dozens of washes without fading or deteriorating. In contrast, heat transfer vinyl may peel or crack over time, especially after repeated washings, while screen printing may fade with frequent laundering.

Ease of Customization: Direct-To-Film Transfer offers greater versatility in customization compared to screen printing and heat transfer vinyl. It allows for easy and cost-effective production of small batch orders and one-off designs, making it ideal for personalized apparel and promotional merchandise.

Consistency in Quality: The modern printing process of Direct-To-Film Transfer ensures consistent quality and precision across each garment, with minimal variation between prints. This level of consistency is challenging to achieve with screen printing, where factors like ink viscosity and screen tension can affect print quality, or with heat transfer vinyl, where the proper application requires skill and experience.

Adaptability to Any Fabric: Direct-To-Film Transfer can be applied to virtually any type of fabric, including cotton, polyester, blends, and even performance fabrics. This versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of apparel and accessories, from t-shirts and hoodies to bags and hats.

Overall, SonBurst Graphics LLC's Direct-To-Film Transfer printing process has surpassed the popularity of screen printing and heat transfer vinyl by offering unparalleled speed, versatility, durability, and consistency in quality, making it one of the preferred choices for businesses and customers in the garment decoration industry.
