DTF 3D

Enhanced DTF with additional layered thickness, creating subtle dimensional texture you can feel. The premium upgrade when a flat print won't carry the brand.

3D DTF builds on standard DTF with a foaming powder layer between the film and ink. Under heat, the layer lifts the print up off the fabric in a dimensional, raised emboss — closer to an embroidered patch than a flat print. Premium tactile look at a fraction of the cost of patch-making, and you keep DTF's full-color photo-detail capability.
