Ecofreen Hot Melt Powder (DTF Powder)

Ecofreen Hot Melt Powder – an essential component of the Direct to Film transfer process:

Available in both white and black, the Ecofreen DTF Powders are of a medium-fine, consistent ground, allowing for great adhesion on even the finest of detailed images.  Made of a quality TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane), the Ecofreen DTF Hot Melt Powders offer excellent flexibility, stretch, and adhesion.

Sprinkle powder evenly over the printed DTF film, shake or flick off excess powder, and then “bake” the film to cure the ink and melt the powder to a solid, even layer across the printed areas. Check out our Ecofreen DTF Guide for more details

Important SAFETY PRECAUTIONS when handling (any brand of) TPU DTF Hot Melt Powders:

• Fumes from the powder could cause an allergic reaction (due to irritation of the throat, lungs and/or eyes). Always work in a well-ventilated area and wear personal protective equipment (ie an N95 mask, safety goggles and gloves) when handling or working with DTF TPU Hot Melt Powders.
• DO NOT apply hot melt powders on or near the printer platen, application MUST occur away from the printer (we recommend at least 5 metres). If the printer was to ‘breathe’ in the powder via its intake fan, there is a risk damage to the printer could occur (and this will not be covered under your warranty).
• Low humidity and stable temperatures are required for the powder and films to work at their optimum.
• TPU powders (all brands) are very sensitive to moisture, it is important to store hot melt powders in air tight packaging when not in immediate use.  Store with a desicant if needed.
• If DTF materials are exposed to high humidity, it can cause the Transfer  film and hot melt powder to absorb moisture. Excess moisture will cause excess hot melt powder to remain on the film during the process of dusting and shaking, which will affect the effect of the finished product.
