Compared with dtf printing and screen printing, which one has higher washability?
We all know that dtf printing products prefer personalized customization and small batch customization. Screen printing is suitable for mass production, and the printing steps of screen printing are relatively complicated and require a large amount of labor and material costs. If the product is produced in large quantities, the price of the dtf process will definitely not be comparable. After all, the larger the production batch of the screen printing process, the lower the production price. As for the dtf process, the price of each piece of clothing and each product is similar, and there will not be much difference. However, the dtf process is more creative, trendy and far faster than screen printing in terms of production speed.
So which one is more effective and washable between dtf printing crafts and screen printing? Since all direct to fabric printers use water-based inks, prints should be compared to water-based screen printing products. The industry standard is 50 washes, and direct to film printing and screen printing using water-based inks will exceed this standard.
The dtf heat transfer printing process uses hot melt powder to heat and melt for bonding. Hot-melt powder is the bridge between the pattern and the fabric. When combined with appropriate curing, it can obtain excellent washability and its degree of washing higher. The dtf process is the most suitable for clothing printing in this era. The operation is mechanized and does not require much manual intervention. The printing pattern can be customized at will, and the color, shape, etc. can also be changed at will to meet the personalized needs of each customer and friend.
