How do you get my logo on clothing?

With hand embroidery its pretty simple, they knit your design into the material. But with machine embroidery it is a lot more complicated. Embroidery machines are not capable of reading the same files that a computer can, so often customers will send us an image in a file that the computer can read (JPG or PNG) and we will convert into a format the embroidery machine can read for you. This way the machine can knit the image onto the clothing with no problems.

Can you embroider specialist protective garments?

When you want to customize your protective clothing, the normal embroidering isn’t the best way to go as it is sometimes difficult for the needles to penetrate it. The best way to do it is heat sealing and luckily, we do this too. Heat sealing is the process of using a high temperature and a lot of pressure to weld the image onto the piece of clothing. We can do this with a variety of different colours and shapes. Unfortunately, we are unable to customize waterproof garments as all methods create holes in the clothing which allows liquids to pass through it.
