Key Advantages of DERFLEX DTF Textile Ink

Outstanding Color Vibrancy

DERFLEX DTF inks contain high-quality pigments that produce vibrant and saturated colors. This ensures that printed graphics maintain their visual impact even after repeated washing and long-term use.

Excellent Adhesion Performance

DTF textile inks are designed to work together with DTF adhesive powder and PET transfer films. This combination creates strong adhesion between the printed design and the fabric surface, ensuring durable prints on different textile materials.

Wide Fabric Compatibility

One of the biggest advantages of DTF printing is its compatibility with a wide range of fabrics. DERFLEX DTF inks can be used for cotton, polyester, nylon, canvas, denim, and many blended fabrics.

Smooth Printing Performance

Our inks are optimized for stable printing performance with minimal nozzle clogging. The carefully formulated ink viscosity ensures consistent ink flow during high-speed printing operations.

Excellent Washing Resistance

Printed designs created with DERFLEX DTF textile inks maintain strong color retention even after multiple washing cycles. This durability makes them ideal for fashion apparel, sportswear, and workwear.

DTF Printing Process Overview

The DTF printing process involves several key steps that transform digital artwork into durable fabric graphics. The process begins by printing the design onto a specialized PET film using DTF textile inks.

Step 1: Printing on PET Film

The digital design is printed onto a PET transfer film using CMYK and white DTF inks.

Step 2: Applying Adhesive Powder

After printing, a hot-melt adhesive powder is applied to the wet ink layer to create a bonding surface.

Step 3: Curing Process

The film is heated to cure the adhesive powder and stabilize the printed design.

Step 4: Heat Transfer

The printed film is placed onto the fabric and transferred using a heat press machine.

Step 5: Film Removal

After cooling, the PET film is peeled away, leaving the printed design firmly bonded to the fabric surface.
