DTF Printing in Toronto & the GTA
Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing is the core technology Get A Custom uses to decorate custom apparel. Artwork is printed onto a specialised film, prepared with adhesive powder, and transferred onto a suitable garment using heat and pressure. The result is a vivid, full-colour print applied directly to the garment — no traditional screen is required for each colour in the design. DTF printing supports detailed logos, illustrations, and photographic gradients on a range of cotton and polyester fabrics, which is why it is our chosen method for custom apparel across Toronto and the GTA.
What this service includes
- Full-colour, detailed artwork reproduction without per-colour screens
- Transfers on cotton, cotton-blend, and polyester garments and fleece
- Detailed gradients, fine lines, and small text reproduction
