In recent years, shifting international trade policies and rising tariffs have significantly impacted the global supply chain. For industries reliant on imported equipment and materials—like Direct to Film (DTF) printing—this has created both uncertainty and new opportunities.

For U.S. businesses, one solution is gaining traction: sourcing DTF equipment and supplies locally.

The Tariff Challenge: Higher Costs and Delays

Ongoing tariffs on products imported affect key components in the DTF workflow, including:

• DTF printers and parts

• Heat transfer film

• Specialized inks and hot melt powders

These tariffs result in higher landed costs, unpredictable delivery times, and added customs paperwork for U.S.-based print shops, apparel brands, and creators.

As a result, more businesses are turning to American suppliers to stabilize their production pipelines.
