REASONS TO CHOOSE DIRECT-TO-FILM PRINTING (DTF) 

    • Large volume printing box icon

      Ideal for Large Volume Printing. Need only 10 shirts? Need 1000? DTF printing is perfect for small or large batches, offering flexibility in the number of shirts you can order. Ask us about volume discounts for the best value.

    • Vibrant Full-Color Brilliance. DTF printing brings a rainbow of high-detail colors to life. Ideal for group and event shirts, it delivers bright, bold, and vibrant designs with unmatched brilliance.
  • Fast Turnaround. DTF print orders typically can be completed in less than two weeks, depending on the size of the order. So, DTF is much faster than most screen-printing orders.
  • High-Resolution Images. Want to print a funny photo of your brother on a birthday shirt? DTF printing is an ideal option for printing full color images and designs in high detail and high resolution.
  • Clean & Green. Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More of Asheville is committed to eco-friendly processes. Just like DTG printing, DTF printing is environmentally friendly and uses non-toxic, water-based ink for a clean and green approach.

MORE REASONS TO CHOOSE DIRECT-TO-FILM PRINTING (DTF)

  • Perfect for Dark Colors. DTF printing is an excellent choice for dark-colored apparel, allowing for the creation of bold, full color design and garment contrast.
  • Soft Feel. When you choose to decorate your custom apparel using DTF printing, you won’t be settling for anything less than a soft printed feel.
  • Hassel-Free Reordering. DTF printing uses specialty transfer sheets to decorate garments. We can save extra DTF sheets with your design for later use; this makes it easier to provide additional shirts later – just in case you forgot that one shirt for Uncle John.
  • Great for Onsite Printing at Events. DTF printing is a convenient solution for creating custom t-shirts and other decorated apparel at events, fundraisers, school functions, and other locations.

    My shirts turned out so well. It was a small order but they treated me like their most important customer. No job is too big or small for Big Frog.
    By Michelle Sullivan
    Amazing! Our local Buncombe County nonprofit is so impressed with Big Frog Custom T’s. The customer service and quality of the printing truly stand out—we are over the moon with the final product. The turnaround time was impeccable as well. After scouring large online printing companies and trying to understand the differences between print styles and materials, we quickly realized that in-person, local customer service was imperative for our order. David and Ashley were absolutely wonderful to work with. You can bet we’ll be back for more tees and merch!

    We reached out to several companies for custom printing on our hoodies, and Big Frog was one of the only ones that even got back to us and they responded quickly! They sent over a quote and an art mockup right away, and the whole process was super easy. Excellent communication, fast turnaround, and great service. Highly recommend Ashley at Big Frog Custom T-Shirts!
