At some point in our lives, either young or old, we’ve all wanted to create custom t-shirts in Australia for various reasons, whether hilarious, practical or business-related. It could be to annoy family members with hideous matching Christmas outfits or even promote a cause or event. And for businesses, custom shirts offer a golden opportunity for branding and promotion.
But what is the best method for custom shirt printing? You ask.
Our noble quest for custom-printed t-shirts for our fabric textiles company, Mereton, started by checking out many different methods. From traditional screen printing to vinyl transfer, we encountered limitations and costly frustrations – like our iconic “M” peeling off after just a couple of washes.
Then, finally, we stumbled upon a method that completely altered our brain chemistry: Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing. It is the process of printing onto high-quality films, which you then just use a heat press to transfer onto finished garments! How amazing.
This snazzy technique makes it super simple and easy to put your custom designs on various items like t-shirts, tote bags, hats, socks, hoodies, leggings, stubbie holders, gloves, flags, banners, lanyards, mousepads and more.
When we saw it in action, we couldn’t believe the quality. We even tried to really break the transfer apart – but we couldn’t.
Now we are proud to offer the absolute best method for custom t-shirt printing out there – DTF printing.
We named our new product “Press & Peel” because the process is that simple.
