embroidery

For a more professional image, your company logo can be applied to most garments. If required, in addition to your logo, you can also add the department, job title or name of individual wearers.

Depending on what garment you choose, the logo can be positioned in a choice of locations including chest, sleeve, back or trouser pocket.

Workwear embroidery enhances work clothes, providing you with a professional uniform that is consistent with your branding.

embroidered logos

Embroidery threads, available in a wide choice of colours including metallics, can be embroidered directly onto the garment or supplied on fabric backing for easy removal and re-use. Our embroidery machines can produce intricate stitch work in different colours for greater detail. FR garments requiring embroidery are sewn in Nomex FR thread.

heat-seal badges

Plastic coated for extra protection can be heat-applied directly to the garments, or onto a fabric backing that can be sewn on. These badges are ideal for food industry applications and garments intended for industrial laundering.

transfer badges

Supplied on a white or coloured fabric background and can be ironed or sewn onto the garment. FR badges are also available for FR garments.
