What is the difference between DTG and DTF printing?

DTG printing

With advancements in technology, the printing industry has witnessed a significate transformation in recent years. Traditional printing methods have made way for more innovative techniques, such as DTG (Direct-to-Garment) and DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing. These methods have revolutionised the way we print designs onto fabric, making the process more efficient and cost-effective. While both techniques share similarities, they also have distinct differences that set them apart.

So what is DTG (Direct-to-Garment) printing?

DTG printing, as the name suggests, is a process where ink is directly printing onto fabric using a specialised inkjet printer. This technique is best suited for small-scale orders or personalised prints. DTG printing offers numerous advantages, such as the ability to print intricate designs with a wide range of colours and gradients. It is also great for designs that require a high level of detail. Moreover, the final print feels soft to touch as the ink is absorbed into the fabric.

DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing

DTF printing involves transferring the design onto a specialised film, which is then heat transferred onto the fabric. This method is primarily used for bulk printing due to its cost-effectiveness and time-efficiency. DTF printing allows for greater flexibility in terms of the types of fabrics that can be printed on, including polyester, nylon, and leather. It is particularly popular for printing sportswear, custom designs and large scale orders. Compared to DTG printing, DTF printing offers vibrant and long-lasting printed with excellent colour saturation and opacity.

What are the differences?

One significant difference between DTG and DTF printing lies in the colour capabilities. DTG printing allows for a broader spectrum of colours, including gradiants and various shades. This is because the ink is directly printed onto the fabric, allowing for precise colour application. In contrast, DTF printing may struggle with colour reproduction, primarily if the design includes intriciate details or a wide range of colours.

Another factor to consider is the durability of the prints. DTG prints tend to be more prone to fading after repeated washes, especially if they are not cared for properly. DTF prints are more durable and resistant to fading, making them ideal for garments that undergo regular washing or high levels of wear and tear.

Production speed

DTF printing  generally takes less time compared to DTG printing. This is because DTF requires less preparation and can be used for mass production, allowing for quicker turnaround times. DTG printing, however, requires more times for set up, as the printer needs to precieslt algin the desgin onto the fabric.

Both DTG and DTF printing techniques have their advantages and limitations, and the choice between the two largely depends on the specific requirements of the print order. DTG is better suited for small scale orders that require intricate designs and a wide range of colours. DTF, on the other hand, is the go to option for bulk prints, offering vibrant and long-lasting prints on a variety of fabrics.

Ultimately, it is essential to consider factors such as design complexity, colour requirements, durability and production speed to determine which method best suits your printing needs.

Portishead Skatepark Crowdfunding

Portishead WASP merchandise

Teepig is proud to support the campaign to get Portishead a new skatepark.
As of July 2022 planning permission for the skatepark has been granted by North Somerset Council. Great, that’s the hard bit done. Now it’s time to get the funding. This is where Teepig is here to help the community.
An online Portishead Skatepark Crowdfunding page is set up to collect the generous contributions from members of the community.  The page, as well as the campaign, is managed by the Portishead WASP group. WASP is the acronym for Wheels And Skate Park.
With each significant contribution comes a reward. So  a £25 donation can reward the contributor with a printed Trucker cap or T-shirt with the WASP logo or the ‘Portishred’ logo. The latter designed by Sam Roberts. Sam, a graphic designer now living locally in Clevedon, won a design competition to come up with the apparel logo for the campaign. By wearing your WASP hoodie, caps beanie and T-shirt you will help spread the word.
It’s been a long time coming and now closer than ever. Along with community funding the WASP group is applying for grants to push the project over the line.

If you would like to make a donation to the skatepark Crowdfunder you can do so here. Once you have chosen your reward it will be processed at Teepig. Then available for collection at SK8 or Die skate shop, Portishead. Where you can also find some of the cheapest, or should I say ‘best priced’ skateboards, scooters and roller skates in the whole of the UK.

Recommended T-shirts 2021

recommended T-shirt 2021

We all have our favourite T-shirts. Sometimes it’s a sentimental thing or possibly the design on the front but most of the time it’s what feels good. This is Teepig’s shortlist of recommended T-shirts for 2021.

The Premium T-shirt

The old classic. Thicker, ringspun cotton from around 180gsm. Most popular brands have their version of a premium T-shirt. Fruit of the Loom, Gildan, Russell to name a few. The premium T-shirt is a classic fit. This means it’s casual, not tight, not baggy, a little room, super comfortable and you’ll definitely notice the better quality. With some of these brands you’ll be able to wash the t-shirt at higher temperatures with little or no shrinkage. Another benefit is durability. You can use a premium T-shirt for manual work and go meet your mates for a beer in it after. Always a recommended T-shirt
From Teepig’s angle they are great for printing on too. Because of the premium t-shirt being a bit thicker it’s also good for embroidery.
As the premium T-shirt is offered by different brands there will also be a huge range of colours to choose from.
One other style worth mentioning is Sol’s Imperial. A brand that Teepig uses a lot for its colour range and quality. Secondly, the price point is agreeable. One slight drawback is the sizing is on the small side.

The Basic T-shirt

There is always a reason to include the basic T-shirt in this list. Primarily because of price. The basic T-shirt won’t compare with the quality of a premium or the cut of a fashion fit but sometimes you just need a cheap T-shirt for a one off. Basic T-shirts are perfect for ‘one-day’ promotions or joke presents. Teepig prints many a funny T-shirts for joke presents.
Don’t expect too much with a basic. The fit may not be right, it could be on the thin side, it may shrink. Saying that, it might be perfect for a warm summer’s day pottering around the garden or going crabbing, whatever you do.
Teepig tends to use Sol’s Regent T-shirts for its basic range so we can keep the price of a custom T-shirt low. £10 for a custom printed white T-shirt can’t be beaten. Especially when you’re still getting a soft ringspun T-shirt that adds comfort for the wearer.
The Regent style is probably closest to Fruit of the Loom’s Iconic range. So save yourself a few pence and go for the basic!

Best All-Rounder

Teepig’s number one recommended T-shirt for 2021 is…. Anthem Organic.
The Anthem organic T-shirt ticks most boxes for what you want out of a T-shirt. Its main attributes are the quality feel and comfort and the amazing fit. At 145gsm it is on the lighter/ thinner side so perfect for warmer days or for wearing as a base layer under a sweater.
This is the type of T-shirt you can workout in or go running in as well as going out for cocktails in. The fit around the arms is perfect and it’s neither too tight nor too baggy around the body.
From Teepig’s point of view it’s a great T-shirt for printing on. The Anthem T-shirt can be customised for your own wardrobe, for your own brand, for your business, for your gym and activewear… the list is long. Also, with eighteen colours to choose from there is bound to be something that suits your style.

Anthem is the brand to take a closer look at. The hoodies are also recommended.

Teepig offers a vast range of personalised T-shirts, hoodies, sweaters, you name it. Some brands mentioned may not feature directly on our online design feature so it’s best to contact us directly and tell us what you want and how we can help you.
