Snuggle, one of the UK’s most trusted garment printing and decoration companies, has launched Snuggle DTF, a new web-to-print platform designed exclusively for the commercial print trade and resellers. The service offers fast, high-quality Direct to Film (DTF) transfers with no equipment investment, no minimum order quantities — enabling trade customers to diversify, scale, and streamline their garment decoration offerings.
“There’s been a lot of noise around DTF — and for good reason,” said Shabbir Maimoon, Director at Snuggle. “It’s fast, flexible, and finally reliable for commercial workflows. Snuggle DTF gives print professionals a simple, scalable way to offer what their customers want — without changing how they work.”
Why Snuggle DTF?
Snuggle DTF is a purpose-built platform tailored to trade users, featuring:
- Easy web-to-print ordering for DTF transfers
- No minimum quantities — ideal for one-offs or high-volume jobs
- UK-based production for fast turnaround
- Highest quality technology used
Customers simply upload artwork and receive press-ready DTF film transfers — no machines, ink, or setup required. Whether you’re fulfilling custom merch, retail drops, or branded uniforms, Snuggle DTF makes production seamless and scalable.
A Booming Market Opportunity
The UK garment decoration market has an estimated value at $245 million, with 70 million T-Shirts alone attributed to customised printing. As demand for short-run, on-demand, and personalised apparel continues to grow, DTF has grown faster than any other technology for flexible garment decoration.
Industry forecasts show DTF is growing at over 40% annually across key metrics — including print volume and supply sales. This rapid growth reflects rising demand from creators, merch brands, agencies, and retail clients seeking high-quality customisation without setup costs or production bottlenecks.
With full-colour capability on cotton, polyester, blends, and more, DTF has become a modern, scalable solution for garment decoration.
Snuggle Removes the Barriers
Despite its clear advantages, many commercial printers have yet to adopt DTF due to barriers such as unfamiliarity with the process or print quality, existing investments in screen printing or DTG (Direct to Garment) equipment, concerns about consistency and reliability, and a lack of time or capacity to explore new workflows.
Snuggle DTF eliminates these hurdles. By offering production-grade transfers with zero technical overhead, Snuggle empowers trade customers to add DTF to their services instantly — no equipment, no training, no risk.
Key benefits include:
- No equipment investment – launch DTF with no new infrastructure
- Fast UK-based production – avoid shipping delays, duties, and import issues
- User-friendly platform – upload, order, dispatch — done
Whether you’re an established printer, a growing reseller, or managing merch for a brand, Snuggle DTF delivers speed, scale, and quality — without the overhead.
