Gang Sheet Pricing
The cost structure for DTF gang sheets, typically based on sheet dimensions rather than the number of individual designs on the sheet. Common gang sheet sizes include 22x24 inches, 22x48 inches, 22x72 inches, and 22x96 inches. Pricing scales with sheet area — larger sheets cost more per sheet but reduce the per-design cost when filled efficiently. Gang sheet pricing makes DTF transfers cost-effective for businesses that print multiple designs or copies by maximizing the usable area on each sheet of PET transfer film.
