BRIDGEWATER, N.J. — Brother International Corporation, on July 17, officially announced the U.S. market launch of the GTX300 Hybrid Garment Printer, a professional-grade solution engineered to streamline production by combining Direct-to-Garment (DTG) and Direct-to-Film (DTF) capabilities into a single, compact unit.
Expanding Production Flexibility
The GTX300 is designed to provide apparel decorators with greater versatility, allowing users to switch seamlessly between DTG and DTF workflows without requiring additional equipment.
- DTG Mode: Produces high-resolution, soft-hand prints ideal for cotton and natural fabrics.
- DTF Mode: Expands capabilities to include polyester, performance blends, and non-traditional print locations or oversized graphics.
“The GTX300 is designed to help decorators say ‘yes’ to more jobs without overhauling their production setup,” said Lawrence Davenport, Vice President of the Industrial Products Division at Brother International Corporation. “By combining DTG and DTF into one professional platform, we’re giving print businesses a practical way to expand their offerings, improve operational efficiency, and grow with confidence.”
Technical Specifications and Performance
Built for high-demand production environments, the GTX300 focuses on detail and reliability:
- Advanced Ink Technology: Features precise ink flow for smooth gradients and sharp detail.
- Certified Inks: Utilizes Brother Innobella™ textile inks, which are GOTS 7.0 and OEKO-TEX® ECO PASSPORT certified, and CPSIA compliant.
- Simplified Operations: Includes a 7-inch touchscreen control panel and integrated GTX Graphics Lab software to streamline workflows.
- Automated Maintenance: Features continuous white ink circulation to reduce downtime and simplify maintenance routines.
Compact Design and Support
The machine’s compact footprint allows for integration into diverse spaces, from professional print shops to classrooms. Every unit is backed by the “Brother At Your Side” commitment, which includes professional onboarding, guided installation, and a one-year limited warranty that covers print heads.
This launch marks a significant addition to the product lineup from the Japan-based Brother Industries, Ltd., which recently reported global annual sales of approximately $6 billion.
