Let's work together to stop the mis-information and advance the DTF industry.
DTF Tech Gurus and Imperial DTF have joined forces to create valuable, insightful content for the Direct-to-Film (DTF) Community. We're committed to transparency and innovation—unlike some large distributors and manufacturers who profit from keeping consumers in the dark. Our focus isn’t on becoming a massive corporation, but on pushing the boundaries of DTF technology and sharing that knowledge with the people who need it most.
