Direct to Film blends the durability of heat transfer with the artwork accuracy of Direct to Garment (DTG). We print your design onto a special film (PET, or Polyethylene Terephthalate) which is then applied with heat and pressure onto your apparel. This process delivers color without compromise.
DTF outputs crisp, clear, high quality prints, and vibrant colors that appear true-to-life.
Currently, the areas of a product you can design vary by product and material type. Areas we offer for printing are the front, back, right and left upper sleeve and left and right chest for embroidery. For products such as masks or hats, the areas available are limited because of less surface area. Currently, some jacket materials are only available for embroidery customization.
Slaite uses water-based inks to custom print on the garments.
The number of Dots Per Inch (dpi) is important to consider when you upload artwork to include in your Slaite collection. A printed image and an image viewed on a digital display vary in the number of dpi to showcase high quality and image integrity. A lower dpi will appear pixelated or will have other quality issues when its printed on a garment. At Slaite, we provide low quality warnings to avoid any low-quality printing.
If you are creating your artwork in Adobe, please do not save your file as “Save for Web”. This will reduce the resolution and may cause printing quality issues.
Your file size cannot be larger than 25MB.
DPI stands for Dots Per Inch and resolution of a digital photo refers to the photo’s pixels. Slaite uses digital printing to customize your products. When printing digital artwork onto a garment, the dpi must be considerably higher than the pixels per inch (ppi) to produce similar quality to the video display of the artwork.
Your artwork must be a minimum of 300dpi to ensure your logo or design is rendered in high quality.
Slaite currently offers Direct to Film (DTF) and embroidery customization services.
When using custom embroidery in your branded apparel, your design is sewn onto your chosen garment using a needle and polyester thread. A backing is placed on the inner portion of the garment to keep the stitches together to ensure the design does not unravel. Embroidery is a fully automated process wherein machines read a digitized pattern from a file to reproduce pattern.
Yes! We offer samples. To order a sample, simply follow the instructions below:
Please note that samples are not provided for free. You are responsible for covering the cost of the product and the shipping charges.
Our printing methods ensure that your ink will not rub off, crack or peel.
We can have nearly all artwork recreated or digitized where necessary, however we prefer vector files. Below are the following artwork formats we accept: Max file size of a print file is 25MB.
When you upload an image, you will be provided with a print quality check under the product you are designing. If a low print quality is indicated, please update your file image with a higher dpi and continue to upload your image until you are provided with the good print quality check indicated by the green check mark.
