Amazing documentary. I just started my business with a new Barudan pro3 for embroidery and a Brother GTX pro printer which can do Dtg and Dtf plus my Hotronix press and Schultz pretreatment machine, I feel really motivated with my small business and first GOD it will grow. Thanks for such amazing video.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed our video. It sounds like you have an impressive setup. Can't go wrong with a Hotronix press! With your passion and the right tools, your business will grow and succeed. If you ever have any questions or need further advice, feel free to reach out. Best of luck, and thanks again for watching!
This is fantastic information! I’m so glad I came across your video! It would’ve been nice to show a visual comparison of the design, for each print style. Nevertheless, thank you for educating us on the differences!
Great question! In terms of longevity and stretch, Screen Print and our UltraColour transfers are more durable due to the white vinyl base layer, whereas DTF and DTG use pigment inks which aren't as solid. Longevity depends on how much wear the garment gets, how often it goes through the wash and the quality of the transfer press onto the garment. Screen print and UltraColour usually lasts 50+ washes. DTG and DTF are wash tested for a little less than that but you can still typically expect them to last as long as the garment.
@@velflex.australia Irrespective of qty, screen printing doesn’t support designs with gradients and shading, i mean only few manufacturers can pull off those types of complexities. Is there anyway to use ultra colour transfers with dtg to make it last longer as screen p?
Hi @@abhishekagarwal7108, you are correct in the sense that traditional screen print doesn't typically allow for gradients etc. Our flagship UltraColour transfers however are a hybrid digitally printed and screen printed transfer. The design is digitally printed onto a transfer film allowing for full colour, complex prints including vibrant gradients. And then a thick polyurethane vinyl layer is screen printed onto the design area giving you a transfer with the colour capability of DTG/DTF and the durability and stretch of traditional screen printing.
Excellent introduction and demonstration of the three printing processes!

Sounds like we have the exact same setup! Did you get them from Embroidery Source?

Great explanation Ben.
great video, really interesting, just wondering how the longevity/stretch compares for each
