If you have a badge or patch requirement, no matter what the industry, then we are happy to quote and produce samples.

In the military, badges are used to denote the unit or arm to which the wearer belongs, and also qualifications received through military training, rank, etc. Similarly, para-military and youth organizations such as cadets, scouts and guides use them to show group membership, awards and ranks. This category host badges made from metal, plastic, leather, textile and rubber which are commonly attached to clothing and vehicles. Textile badges or patches can be either woven or embroidered, and can be attached by gluing, ironing-on, sewing or applique.

There are three main ways to produce a badge, each of which has its own merits and suitability for a project.

 

Machine Embroidered Badges

As the name suggests, machine embroidered badges are produced by machine stitching a complex pattern onto a large piece of backing material, before each individual badge is cut out.

Machine embroidery is appropriate when a badge needs to be mass-produced cheaply in large quantities.

The quality of the badges is extremely consistent and uniform, and large quantities can be manufactured very quickly.

 

Hand Embroidered Badges

Hand embroidered badges are manufactured by stretching a piece of material over a frame and stitching threads through purls.

Hand embroidery is a slower and more time-consuming process with every stitch carefully embroidered by hand.

Every hand embroidered badge is unique, and the process can be lengthy depending on the complexity of the pattern.

 

Woven Badges

Woven badges are machine produced by weaving the backing and the badge design simultaneously into one single piece.

Woven badges tend to be thinner and flatter than their embroidered counterparts due to their construction, and are a cheap, quick-to-produce option for large quantities.
