Embroidery onto waterproof Garments

Many companies have now acknowledged that embroidery onto water proof garments causes the garment to fail and allows wet patches to form.

At ETC Supplies we have been very Pro-active in this field. We are the ONLY company to develop solutions to these problems and offer our customers ways of preventing these problems occurring.

This is a very important factor as many quality customers now state in their purchase orders that waterproof garments should not be compromised in their performance by the addition of embroidery.

We can offer you a selection of ways to overcome these issues including waterproofing the embroidery.

The other factor that you should consider is to purchase our embroidered badges with a heat press coating already applied to them.

We can supply any type of badge with a Merrowed edge for the traditional look or with a laser Cut edge which makes the badge look like embroidered onto the fabric.

These badges can be finished with a range of adhesive coatings that will allow the badge to be permanently fixed onto a range of fabrics including Gore-Tex etc. for which we have developed special machine adhesive coatings.

In addition to these special adhesive coatings we can also supply the badges waterproofed from the front so the thread does not get wet and deteriorate.

Another great use for these heat pressed embroidered badges is for use on Bags, Caps, Polo Shirts and Fleece fabrics. All these present their own problems with traditional direct embroidery. By using our heat pressed embroidered badges you can acheive the same consistant logo on everything you produce!

At ETC Supplies we have can work with you to get the perfect end result that you and your customer requires. Give us a call today to discuss your requirements.

You can see the front and back of waterproof fabrics with the embroidered badges heat pressed on using our special machine applied adhesive.
