One of the most important decisions to
make when deciding how to add your logo to your order of custom company apparel
is whether to use screen printing or digitizing embroidery. Embroidery and screen printing are two great options for
customizing logo-branded merchandise, but which one should you choose? Check
out this blog post to learn more about the differences between these two
processes, as well as other factors you’ll want to consider when making your
decision.
Embroidery logos are created using embroidery
machines that stitch the design onto the product of your choice. Embroidery
patterns add a raised texture to your garment and are more durable and
resistant to damage than other decorating methods. Unlike many other decorating
methods, embroidery machines can be used for curved or non-flat items, such as
custom hats or custom backpacks.
Embroidered logos tend to look great
on custom work polo, and their durability makes them a great choice for logo
brand jackets and outerwear. There are many benefits to choosing an embroidered
logo, but how does it compare to screen printing?
Screen printing is a versatile and
simple decoration method for logo brand goods. When screen printing, use a
stencil to apply ink directly to the product of your choice. Some decorating
methods cannot handle logos or images with fine detail, but screen printing can
be used to apply almost any design and ink color.
The ink used in screen printing is
thicker than traditional digital printing, so your logo branded merchandise looks
more vibrant and easier to see on darker fabrics or surfaces. Screen printing
works well for clothing such as custom T-shirts and branded sportswear, and the
method is not limited to custom corporate clothing. This approach can also be
applied to classic corporate gifts, such as custom golf balls or logo branded
promotional pens.
When it comes to embroidery versus
screen printing costs, screen printing is the most cost-effective way to
decorate; Especially for larger orders. Both decorating methods have their
benefits, and both can be used to fit your budget!
