Are your products listed anywhere else for sale?
No, our products are only available from here on our online store.
I have an idea I'd like to discuss with you, when is the best time to call?

What are DTF Transfers?
Direct to film transfers, otherwise known as DTF Transfers, are a great way to create fashionable and long lasting garments. They involve taking a design and printing it onto a special film material that is then ready to press onto T-Shirts, sweatshirts and other garments by using a heat press. Read more.
What are UV DTF Transfers?
UV DTF (Ultraviolet Direct to Film) transfers are a cutting-edge printing technology used to apply designs, logos, and graphics onto hard, flat surfaces. The design is printed onto the film using UV ink and is then cured using UV light, making it durable and resistant to fading, scratching, and water damage. The film is then applied to the desired surface, creating a high-quality, vibrant, and long-lasting print. UV DTF transfers are versatile and can be used on various materials like glass, metal, and ceramics, making them popular for creating personalised gifts, promotional items, and branded products. Read more.
Do you print custom DTF and UV DTF Transfers?
Yes we do! We've outlined all the details for each transfer method here:
- Custom DTF Transfers
- Custom UV DTF Transfers
Can you match my brand colours?
Unfortunately we're unable to match your colour. The current DTF and UV DTF printers are very temperamental and dont make adjustments easy or quick. There are also many factors like temperature and humidity that can change the print results significantly. We hope to be able to offer this in the future as the technology evolves.
Do you offer heat pressing services?
Yes absolutely! If you cant DIY, we can do it for you. 
We have a sister site that is focused on this service, producing the final product for you. 
Please get in touch to discuss or visit our website at www.custommerch.co.nz
Can you source blank apparel for me?
Yes we can. We have accounts with several suppliers including AS Colour, Gildan, Cloke and more.
