Artwork Requirements
Please upload your artwork at the size you have ordered. While PDFs are preferred for DTF Printing, TIF and PNG files with transparent backgrounds are also acceptable.
Since JPEGs do not support transparency, we'll attempt to remove the sheet color, but this may lead to unpredictable results. Therefore, it's best to use PDF/PNG/SVG when possible.
For optimal colour accuracy, use CMYK artwork.
If you have any questions about the artwork requirements, please contact us at info@dtfpro.co.uk
What are DTF Transfers?
UV DTF (direct to film) transfers are one of the latest innovations in custom printing technology, making it easy to decorate a wide range of hard surfaces with vibrant, durable designs. Unlike traditional vinyl decals or stickers, UV DTF transfers provide a premium finish without the need for weeding, laminating, or a heat press.
Using an industrial UV printer, designs are printed onto a specialist transfer film with premium UV-curable inks and an adhesive layer. The inks are instantly cured with ultraviolet light, creating a durable, full-colour transfer that is ready to apply straight away.
The result is a simple peel-and-stick transfer that delivers sharp detail, vibrant colours, and excellent adhesion to smooth surfaces including glass, metal, plastic, wood, acrylic, ceramic, and more.
UV DTF transfers are waterproof, scratch-resistant, and designed to withstand everyday use, making them ideal for personalised gifts, branded merchandise, drinkware, signage, and retail products.
Our UV DTF transfer sheets are available in a range of sizes, with significant discounts for larger orders and regular customers.
How to Press DTF Transfers
Our UV DTF transfers arrive ready to apply, with no heat press or additional adhesive required. Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before application.
Carefully peel the design from the backing film, position it onto your chosen hard surface, and press firmly using a squeegee or your fingers to remove any air bubbles and ensure full adhesion.
Once the design has bonded to the surface, slowly peel away the top carrier film, leaving the printed design in place. For the best results, apply UV DTF transfers only to smooth, hard surfaces such as glass, metal, plastic, acrylic, wood, and ceramic. Avoid applying to fabrics, silicone, or heavily textured surfaces.
