Your production partner for premium DTF transfers.
Premium DTF transfers for print shops, branding companies and apparel decorators who need to get the job right.
Powered by Designashirt, DTF Africa brings more than 20 years of apparel decoration experience to a wholesale platform built around your business. Order online, see your pricing upfront and access professional production without investing in your own DTF equipment.
Built by people who understand your business.
When a customer trusts you with their branding, your reputation is on the line.
The artwork needs to look sharp. The colours need to make an impact. The finished garment needs to reflect the quality you promised.
We understand that responsibility because we have been delivering apparel branding since 2005.
DTF Africa gives you access to that experience, whether you are printing for a local business, supplying a team or fulfilling a larger branded apparel order. You handle the customer and the pressing. We produce the transfers that help you deliver.
Over 20 years of experience behind every transfer.
DTF Africa is powered by Designashirt, one of Southern Africa’s most experienced apparel decoration businesses.
Our work has included multiple FIFA World Cups and ICC Cricket World Cups, leading clubs such as Orlando Pirates, Mamelodi Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs, national teams including Bafana Bafana, the Proteas and the Springboks, and global brands such as Nike, Adidas, Puma and Kappa.
These projects demand attention to detail, production expertise and respect for the brand on the garment.
That experience informs how we approach every DTF Africa order. Your business deserves the same care, whatever the size of the job.
Brands we print for: Adidas, Blue Bulls, Standard Bank, Bafana Bafana, Puma, DHL Stormers, Qatar Foundation, Orlando Pirates, Kappa, Basketball Africa League, City of Cape Town, Cape Town Trail Marathon, South African Football Association, South African National Parks, Otter The Grail of Trail, World Trail Majors.
Grow your printing business without buying another printer.
DTF opens up more possibilities for your business: full-colour logos, detailed artwork and short runs without the setup required for screen printing.
Producing it yourself also means managing equipment, ink, powder, curing, maintenance and downtime.
With DTF Africa, you can offer premium DTF printing while keeping your focus on winning customers and delivering finished garments.
