Professional UV DTF printers, high-gloss UV inks, A and B films, printheads and maintenance accessories — Créadhésif offers you the complete equipment to start personalizing rigid objects with UV DTF, with technical support from A to Z.
The technique
Direct-to-film UV (DTF UV) technology allows the production of permanent adhesive stickers applicable to a very wide range of rigid substrates. The technology is based on two complementary films:
The DTF UV printer prints your image onto Film A, which has an adhesive top layer. The UV inks cure instantly under the integrated UV lamps — resulting in a crisp, precise print that's ready to handle immediately after printing.
Film B is laminated onto Film A. The adhesive on Film A only adheres to Film B in the printed areas — creating a sticker perfectly cut to the shape of the image, with no background, ready to be applied cold.
DTF UV transfer is applied cold, without a press or heat. It adheres directly to metal, plastic, wood, glass, ceramic, leather — virtually any smooth and rigid surface.
Our range
Professional printers selected for print quality, robustness and printhead precision — vibrant colors and sharp details.
UV inks formulated for an ultra-glossy finish and captivating 3D effects. Instant UV curing — ready to handle immediately. CMYK colors + white + varnish.
Film A receives the printing (top adhesive layer), Film B is laminated to create the self-adhesive transfer, ready for cold application. Compatible with all our printers.

Frequently Asked Questions
(DTF ) textile printing uses pigmented inks and a hot-melt powder to transfer designs onto fabric using a heat press (130–160°C). UV DTF uses ultraviolet-cured inks to create a permanent adhesive sticker on A+B film, which can be cold-applied to any smooth, rigid surface. No heat press is required for UV DTF application.
To get started, we recommend the Epson I1600 30cm dual-head printer (€6,583 excluding VAT) . It offers excellent value for money for small to medium print runs. If your business is focused on high-volume production or if you work with large objects, the I3200 60cm triple-head printer (€12,083 excluding VAT) will be more suitable.

Cured UV inks offer excellent resistance to UV rays, scratches, and moisture. On smooth, rigid surfaces (metal, glass, plastic), the durability far surpasses that of simple printing. The ultra-gloss finish remains intact over time. For objects subjected to high mechanical stress, an additional protective varnish is recommended.
