Pigment-based white ink for direct-to-film (DTF) printing. It prints the white underbase beneath the colour layer, giving strong colour and brighter prints on dark garments. This water-based textile ink is printed onto PET film, which is then powdered, cured and heat-pressed onto the garment. It suits DTF printing businesses, garment manufacturers, custom apparel shops and print-on-demand studios.
White ink needs regular care to prevent settling and clogging – see our DTF printer care guide.
