DTF (direct to film)
DTF prints the design onto a film and heat-presses it onto the fabric. It handles photos, gradients and many colours, works on cotton and polyester, and suits orders from a single piece upwards.
GUIDE
T-shirt printing in Dodoma: DTF, screen printing or embroidery?
For T-shirt printing in Dodoma there are three main methods: DTF for full-colour designs and smaller orders, screen printing for larger runs of a simple design, and embroidery for uniforms that need to look professional for a long time. The right choice depends on your design, quantity and how long the garment must last.
Screen printing
Screen printing pushes ink through a stencil, one screen per colour. Setup takes longer, so it pays off on larger quantities of a design with few colours, such as campaign or event T-shirts.
Embroidery
Embroidery stitches the logo into the fabric. It is the most durable finish and the usual choice for polo shirts, caps, jackets and staff uniforms.
Quick rule of thumb
- A few pieces or a full-colour design: DTF
- Many pieces, one or two colours: screen printing
- Corporate uniforms, polos and caps: embroidery
