This page answers common questions about DTF film, including coating, peel types, thickness, and production-related issues.
DTF film is commonly produced at around 75 microns (0.075 mm). This thickness provides a balance between handling strength and stability during curing.
DTF film can use standard, soft-touch, or hybrid coatings. The coating affects ink absorption, powder adhesion, and the final hand feel after transfer.
Double matte coating improves feeding stability and reduces slipping during printing. It does not mean both sides are printable.
DTF film is typically available in standard roll widths such as 30 cm, 37 cm, and 60 cm, as well as custom widths depending on production requirements.
Hot peel requires a short cooling time before removing the film. Cold peel requires full cooling. Any-time peel allows both immediate and delayed removal.
Press temperature is usually in the range of 135–150°C, depending on powder type, fabric, and workflow.
Yes, films are compatible with fine powder (such as 80–200 mesh, etc.), which is often used for smoother and softer results.
This is often caused by excess powder, large solid designs, or curing conditions rather than the film itself.
Softer results depend on coating type, powder size, curing conditions, and design coverage. Fine powder and controlled application usually help improve softness.
Not directly. Thickness affects handling and stability, while coating and process conditions have a greater impact on final feel.
DTF film should be stored in a cool, dry environment, away from heat and humidity. Keeping rolls sealed helps maintain consistent performance.

Yes, high humidity can affect powder adhesion, release behavior, and overall consistency during printing.
Peeling issues can be caused by incorrect temperature, curing conditions, or timing, rather than the film itself.
This is usually related to static, humidity, or uneven coating behavior.
Feeding issues can come from humidity, storage conditions, or differences in coating surface friction.
We are a direct manufacturer. Production is handled with controlled coating processes and quality checks to maintain consistency across batches.
OEM and private label supply is typically available depending on requirements.
Yes, sample rolls are usually tested under real production conditions before placing bulk orders.
SGS certification is commonly used. Other certifications, such as Oeko-Tex, can be arranged if required.
