DTF Gang Sheets Europe: Complete Pricing, Sizing & Bulk Order Guide (2026)

Last updated: 2026-05-23

If you run a print shop, apparel brand, or Etsy store anywhere in the European Union, the cheapest way to print custom designs in volume is a DTF gang sheet. This guide explains exactly what a gang sheet is, how DTF gang sheet pricing works in Europe, what sizes you can order, and how to get bulk DTF transfers delivered across the EU via DHL Express in 1–2 business days.

What is a DTF gang sheet?

A DTF gang sheet is a single sheet of PET film printed with multiple separate designs nested together to fill the printable area as efficiently as possible. Instead of paying for one transfer at a time, you pay for one metre of printed film and squeeze in as many designs as fit within the standard 56 cm wide print zone.

The gang sheet is delivered as one continuous roll segment that you cut into individual transfers, then heat-press onto T-shirts, hoodies, or any other compatible fabric using a standard heat press at 150°C (302°F) for 8 seconds.

DTF gang sheet pricing in Europe (2026)

At RoyalDTF (an Estonia-based supplier shipping across the EU via DHL Express), bulk DTF gang sheet pricing can start from €5.50 per linear metre at our highest volume tier. Final tier pricing depends on total order metres, design density, and live checkout rules.

Typical European DTF gang sheet pricing breakdown:

  • Single metres — best for small print shops and Etsy sellers (highest €/m)
  • 5–10 metres — break-even point for most apparel brands
  • 10+ metres — bulk tier territory; per-shirt cost drops sharply
  • Wholesale volumes — best €/m, suitable for full-time print shops

How to choose between a gang sheet and individual transfers

If you're printing more than five designs in a single order, a gang sheet is almost always cheaper than individual transfers. We've broken down the exact math in DTF gang sheets vs single transfers: cost calculator →.

How to design a DTF gang sheet

Designing a gang sheet is straightforward if you follow the right file specs. Use 300 DPI, RGB color mode, transparent PNG or PDF, with each design separated by 5 mm of empty space to allow clean cutting. Maximum print width per metre is 56 cm.
