Embroidery printing is a technique that uses a needle and thread to create a design or pattern on fabric. It can be done manually or with a computerized machine. 

 

Here are some things to know about embroidery printing: 

  • Process
    The design is first digitized using software and then transferred to the machine. The machine uses a hoop to hold the fabric in place and stitches the design. 
  • Appearance
    Embroidery is durable, eye-catching, and three dimensional. The design is often coated with a sheen to make the colors stand out. 
  • Cost
    The price of embroidery depends on the stitch count and the number of units ordered. 
  • Materials
    Embroidery can be used on a wide variety of materials, including thick materials like towels, canvas, and jeans, as well as synthetic materials. 
  • Suitability
    Embroidery is a good choice for business shirts, polo shirts, caps, jackets, and other cloth-based items. 
  • Color
    Embroidery can replicate most colors, but solid colors are ideal. Black, white, and red are the most common colors used.
