Seamless. Flexible. Vibrant.
At The Pack Smart Group, we are constantly investing in ways to help your brand grow without the burden of excess inventory. That’s why we’ve brought advanced Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing capabilities entirely in-house.
Whether you are an independent band launching a merchandise line, a sports brand expanding your apparel range, or an e-commerce business testing new designs, our custom Print on Demand service allows you to scale effortlessly. No minimum order quantities, no wasted stock—just premium, retail-ready apparel printed and shipped exactly when your customers buy
What is DTF, and why is it better than DTG?
If you’ve used Print on Demand in the past, you are likely familiar with Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing. While DTG has its place, we chose to invest heavily in Direct-to-Film (DTF) technology because it delivers a vastly superior product for your brand and your customers.
Here is why DTF changes the game:
-
Unrivalled Vibrant Detail: Unlike DTG, where inks can sometimes sink into the fabric and look muted, DTF prints the design onto a specialised film first before transferring it to the garment. This creates incredibly sharp details, crisp fine lines, and brilliant, solid whites that truly pop on any colour fabric.
-
Ultimate Fabric Flexibility: DTG is largely limited to 100% cotton. DTF breaks down those barriers. Whether your brand sells lightweight polyester sportswear, rugged cotton hoodies, blends, or nylon jackets, DTF adheres perfectly to almost any material.
-
Built to Last (No Cracking or Fading): DTF prints are exceptionally durable and inherently stretchable. They won’t crack when the fabric pulls and hold up beautifully in the wash, ensuring your merchandise looks premium for the long haul.
-
A Soft, Retail-Quality Feel: Despite its incredible durability, the finish remains remarkably soft, flexible, and lightweight to wear, matching the high-end retail quality your customers expect.
Premium DTF printing meets seamless e-commerce fulfilment. No minimums, no inventory, just retail-quality apparel delivered worldwide.
The Importance of the Right Information
We want your products to look exactly as you want them to so in the set up phase we will ask for
- Confirmation of the location on the product
- The Size of print in CM/MM
- The distance from the Collar
- The location of the print on the garment
- The artwork file
We will then confirm which blanks to use so we can get working on your bespoke products
How the Process Works: Pick. Print. Pack. Post.
