Premium Sticker Production Now Available
We're pleased to announce the addition of a Funsun DTF (Direct-To-Film) printer to our production facility. This specialized equipment brings a new dimension to our made-to-order services, enabling us to produce high-quality glossy stickers and labels for a wide range of applications—from product branding to promotional items and decorative accents.
For businesses looking for premium-looking labels without the complexity or cost of traditional printing methods, DTF printing offers an excellent solution. The technology creates distinctive raised, crystal-clear stickers that instantly elevate product presentation and brand perception.
Direct-To-Film printing is a UV-curable process specifically designed for hard, non-porous surfaces. Unlike traditional vinyl cutting or screen printing, DTF creates a unique domed effect with a glossy finish that gives stickers and labels a premium, three-dimensional appearance.
The process works by printing full-color designs with white ink backing onto a transparent film using UV LED curing technology. The result is a durable, waterproof sticker that bonds excellently to glass, metal, acrylic, wood, ceramic, and plastic surfaces. The raised profile and crystal-clear finish create an eye-catching effect that's particularly effective for branding applications.
Key advantages of our DTF printing service:
- Premium Appearance: The glossy, domed finish creates a high-end look that enhances perceived product value
- Vibrant Colors: CMYK + White ink system delivers rich, saturated colors with excellent detail reproduction
- Excellent Durability: UV-resistant and waterproof properties suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications
- Strong Adhesion: Bonds securely to smooth, hard surfaces without peeling or lifting
- Quick Application: Simple peel-and-stick process requires no special equipment or heating
- Low Minimum Orders: Start from just 1 piece, making it practical for prototypes, small batches, and custom projects
Our Funsun DTF printer is equipped with an Epson I3200 industrial print head, delivering exceptional print quality at 1440 dpi resolution. This level of detail ensures that fine text, intricate logos, and subtle gradients reproduce accurately with sharp edges and smooth color transitions.
The 300mm maximum printing width accommodates a wide range of product label sizes and allows for efficient batch production of smaller stickers. The CMYK + White ink configuration enables vibrant colors on transparent backgrounds while providing the necessary opacity for application on any surface color.
The UV LED curing system offers several advantages over traditional drying methods. Instant curing eliminates waiting time, prevents smudging, and creates a harder, more scratch-resistant surface. The UV-cured coating also provides excellent resistance to fading, moisture, and environmental wear—critical factors for product labels that need to maintain appearance over time.
DTF stickers excel in applications where premium appearance and durability matter:
Product Branding and Labels: Create professional-looking labels for bottles, jars, containers, and packaging. The glossy finish and raised profile make your brand stand out on retail shelves. Perfect for cosmetics, food products, craft goods, and specialty items where presentation drives purchasing decisions.
Promotional Items: Add branded stickers to giveaway items like water bottles, phone cases, notebooks, or keychains. The premium look elevates perceived value while the durability ensures your brand message lasts.
Gift Decoration and Personalization: Custom stickers for gift packaging, special events, or personalized items. The crystal-clear finish adds a sophisticated touch that plain printed labels can't match.
Equipment and Asset Labeling: Durable identification labels for equipment, tools, or inventory that need to withstand handling and environmental exposure while maintaining professional appearance.
Point-of-Purchase Displays: Eye-catching stickers for product displays, demonstrations, or promotional materials where visual impact drives engagement.
One of the advantages of DTF stickers is the straightforward application process that requires no special equipment:
- Prepare the Surface: Clean and dry the target surface thoroughly to ensure optimal adhesion
- Position the Sticker: The backing film allows you to preview placement before committing
- Apply and Press: Press the sticker firmly onto the surface, working from center outward to eliminate air bubbles
- Remove Carrier Film: Peel away the top film to reveal the glossy, domed finish
- Finished: The sticker is immediately ready for use with no curing time required
The process is forgiving enough for manual application while delivering consistent professional results. For businesses applying labels to products, this simplicity translates to faster production and lower labor costs compared to methods requiring heat presses or special tools.
To achieve the best results with DTF printing, we recommend several design guidelines:
Vector Graphics for Logos: Provide logos and text in vector format (CorelDRAW, Adobe Illustrator, or PDF) when possible. Vector files ensure crisp edges at any size and allow us to optimize paths for clean printing.
High-Resolution Images: For photographic elements or raster graphics, provide files at 300 dpi or higher at the intended print size. This ensures smooth gradients and detailed reproduction.
Color Management: While we can match colors closely, be aware that printed colors may vary slightly from screen display. For critical color matching, we can provide printed samples for approval before full production.
White Ink Backing: The white ink layer provides opacity and prevents the underlying surface from showing through. For designs with subtle colors or transparency effects, we'll work with you to optimize the white ink coverage.
Size and Shape: Maximum width is 300mm, with custom lengths as needed. We can cut stickers to any shape, though simple shapes with rounded corners tend to have better durability than sharp points or thin extensions.
Understanding that many businesses need flexibility for testing designs or producing small batches, we've structured our DTF printing service to accommodate projects of all sizes.
Minimum Order: Just 1 piece. This makes DTF printing practical for prototypes, samples, limited editions, or truly custom one-off items. Test your design before committing to larger quantities, or create personalized products without inventory risk.
Setup Fee: Starting at 1,000 baht per design. The setup fee covers design optimization, test printing, and machine preparation. For repeat orders of the same design, setup fees are waived, making reordering efficient and economical.
Volume Pricing: Larger quantities benefit from economies of scale. Contact us with your project details for specific pricing based on size, quantity, and complexity.
This pricing structure is designed to support Bangkok and Samutprakan area businesses at every stage—from entrepreneurs testing new product concepts to established brands maintaining inventory of proven designs.
DTF printing complements our existing capabilities in several ways:
Laser Cutting: Combine DTF stickers with laser-cut acrylic products for branded keychains, awards, or promotional items. The pairing of precise cutting with premium stickers creates high-perceived-value products.
UV Printing: For projects requiring both flat printing and domed stickers, we can coordinate production to ensure color consistency and design coherence across different printing methods.
CNC Routing: Apply DTF labels to CNC-routed components, signage, or display pieces for professional finishing and branding.
Quality Control: Our 2D vision measuring system can verify sticker dimensions and positioning accuracy for projects requiring precise placement tolerances.
The addition of DTF printing capability reflects our commitment to offering comprehensive made-to-order solutions under one roof. By expanding our equipment portfolio, we can serve more of your production needs directly, reducing your need to coordinate with multiple vendors and ensuring better quality control across your project.
We're particularly excited about the opportunities this opens for small businesses and startups. The low minimum order quantity removes barriers to entry for product branding, allowing entrepreneurs to create professional-looking products without large upfront investments in inventory or tooling.
As we gain experience with this technology and learn from your projects, we expect to discover new applications and techniques that push the boundaries of what's possible with DTF printing. We welcome creative challenges and look forward to helping you bring your branding ideas to life.
If you're interested in exploring DTF printing for your products or projects, we invite you to reach out with your ideas. We're happy to discuss design possibilities, provide samples of the finish quality, and develop pricing specific to your needs.
For the best results, share your design files (or concepts if you're still in development), target dimensions, quantity requirements, and application surface. This information helps us provide accurate quotes and recommendations for optimizing your design for the DTF process.
Thank you for your continued partnership with Siam P&W Technic. We're excited to add this new capability to our service offering and look forward to helping you create premium branded products.
