Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More Announces Partnership with Axiom America for Direct-to-Film (DTF) Printers

Axiom and Big Frog will be able to offer custom apparel prints in their stores, while also expanding Big Frog’s capabilities.

DUNEDIN, Fla., Sept. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More and Axiom America have formed a partnership to introduce Axiom’s state-of-the-art Arcus Direct-to-Film (DTF) printers to nearly 100 Big Frog shops. The agreement will allow Big Frog the opportunity to print apparel in-house, and offer its customers the most advanced garment printing technology.

“Our store owners have put the DTF machines to the test in almost every situation that can be imagined,” said Ron DeFrece. “Axiom won both on the technical side and for their customer service.”

Big Frog was the first to introduce direct-to garment (DTG), allowing stores to fulfill many custom orders while the customers wait. DTF printing offers consumers an eco-friendly option for apparel decoration. Screen printers are not required to produce large quantities of orders. This saves time and money for the store and offers greater convenience.

DTF is a process that involves printing on a film, then applying it to clothing items. This produces bright, full-color images with high resolution. This is a water-based, more environmentally friendly technique which eliminates harsh chemicals that are used in screen printing. A 14-inch machine is ideal for small shops with a 3 foot by 6 foot footprint. A larger 24-inch machine offers more capacity with a footprint of 4 feet by 9 ft.

Big Frog CEO, co-founder and president Tina Bacon DeFreceThe partnership has been a great success. Bacon DeFrece, Ph.D. said that they are constantly looking for ways to expand their printing capabilities and provide more deco options to customers. DTF printing has a lower environmental impact and aligns with Big Frog’s commitment for ‘green production’ processes.
