Benefits Of Screen Printed Transfers
Screen printed transfers offer a host of advantages that can elevate the apparel decoration process and expand product offerings.
Soft hand feel: enjoy the soft hand, vintage feel of real plastisol ink, delivering the quality and durability of traditional screen printing without the complexities.
No messy setups: forget mixing inks and burning screens, screen printed transfers streamline the process, eliminating the need for messy setups.
Small footprint: with screen printed transfers, all that is needed is a heat press. There’s no need for bulky equipment or a large workspace, making it ideal for businesses of any size.
Cost-effective: perfect for single-colour designs, these transfers are especially cost-effective when ordered in bulk. This makes them a smart choice for businesses looking to maximise their profit margins.
Versatile applications: screen printed transfers aren’t just for T-shirts. Users can easily print on sleeves, bags, hats and a variety of other apparel items that are often challenging to screen print traditionally.

Inktra® transfers apply at a low temperature, making them suitable for a wide variety of fabrics, including Spandex and Nylon that other transfers struggle with.
Inktra® enables decorators to achieve a screen printed finish in as little as seven seconds using just a heat press — no additional equipment required.
Screen Printed Transfers Vs. DTF: What’s The Difference?
When it comes to decorating apparel, both screen printed transfers and Direct-To-Film (DTF) transfers offer unique benefits, but they serve different needs.
Screen printed Transfers are made by applying plastisol ink onto a release paper, which is then transferred onto the garment using a heat press. This method delivers a soft, durable finish that mimics traditional screen printing. These transfers are particularly cost-effective for single-colour designs and are great for bulk orders.
DTF transfers involve printing a design onto a special film, coating with it adhesive powder, and curing before pressing onto fabric. DTF is ideal for full-colour, intricate designs. They typically have a different texture and finish compared to screen printed transfers.
While screen printed transfers are perfect for those looking for a cost-effective and traditional screen print feel, DTF offers more flexibility for complex and multi-colour projects. The choice will depend on the specific needs of the design and application.
