Embroidery

Embroidery is an excellent way of branding bags, apparel, and other textile products. It offers higher perceived value and a depth of branding quality which other processes cannot match. Embroidery uses rayon thread which is stitched into the product and has a slightly raised effect.

Advantages

Only one setup charge applies per position for up to 12 thread colours.

Limitations

• Only approximate PMS colour matches are possible – the threads to be used are chosen from those available to give the closest possible match. See our thread colour chart for the colours available.
• Unable to print variable data such as individual naming.
• Metallic embroidery colours have special pricing.

Artwork Requirements

• Vector artwork is preferred.
• Fonts are advised to be converted to outlines/objects to avoid font conflicts.
• We recommend avoiding fine detail – the minimum text heights for embroidered artworks are:
  • 4.5mm for Sans Serif fonts
  • 5.5mm for Serif fonts
