Embroidery is a popular choice for corporate branding and promotional materials because it creates a professional and elegant look that cannot be achieved with heat transfer or screen printing. One of the unique features of embroidery is that each embroidered item is slightly different from the next, even when produced in large quantities. This gives the embroidered logo a hand-crafted appearance that conveys quality and value.
Provide us with your own design or choose from our extensive selection of existing logos. If you choose one of our existing logos, we can customize it to meet your specific requirements. Our team is skilled at using up to 14 colors in a single design, ensuring that your logo is vibrant and eye-catching. Whether you have a specific vision in mind or want to browse our pre-existing options, we can help bring your branding to life.
We understand that durability is just as important as aesthetics when it comes to embroidery. That's why we use high-quality polyester thread that is resistant to industrial washing, harsh detergents, bleaching, chlorine, and stonewashing. This makes our embroidery a great choice for a wide range of fabrics that may be exposed to strong chemicals and frequent washing, including workwear, bed sheets, children's clothing, outerwear, swimwear, towels, and more. With our embroidery, you can be confident that your design will not only look great, but also withstand the rigors of daily use.
We prioritize customer satisfaction and strive to deliver high-quality products. Before beginning any project, we send a digitized proof of the motif to you to ensure that you are happy with the finished design. Our team of skilled graphic designers is dedicated to working with you to create beautiful and effective embroideries that meet your needs and exceed your expectations. We look forward to collaborating with you to bring your vision to life.
We vouch 100% for the quality of our own embroidery
Many suppliers buy their products from external sources, which means losing grip of quality control. At Jet Sport we manufacture our own embroideries on our own machines.
We'll flawlessly digitize your design
The first step is always the bighgest, and the first step on the way to a perfect embroidery is the digitization of the motif. When Jet Sport digitizes your logo, we factor in the fabric onto which it is to be printed and in what environment it is to be used. When the logo has been digitized, we stitch and adjust until it is perfect.
We test all designs to ensure the best possible look on any fabric.
Not all fabrics are created equal. A design embroidered onto a marcella polo shirt needs a quite different design composition than one embroidered onto an Oxford shirt. At Jet Sport we sew a test embroidery on a fabric identical to yours and adjust as needed to ensure the best possible result.
We sweep nothing under the carpet.
At Jet Sport we submit our products to a strict quality control. There's no putting the bad print at the bottom of the box. If the product doesn't meet our high standards, we don't ship it.
You get your products on time.
Delivery delays is the biggest complaint with other printers. At Jet Sport we ship 99% of all orders on time, and 98% of these arrive no later than the following day - according to statistics from GLS.
We use extremely durable and glossy embroidery threads.
Not all embroidery threads are created equal. Some cheap threads cannot withstand repeat washing or tumble drying. Many printers producing large embroidery batches choose the cheap way out in the shape of nylon threads instead of the excellent polyester threads. At Jet Sport we exclusively use polyester threads for our embroidery solutions. We also make sure to match the thread weight to your logo's exact needs.
Your embroideries will match the clothing exactly.
Purchasing embroideries should not be a dice roll. At Jet Sport we thoroughly test every single embroidery we sell. We can tell you how it will fit, how it will feel, and how it should be washed.
'Good enough' is not good enough
The above are just some of the reasons Jet Sport has built a huge customer portfolio that understands the importance of image management and branding. Buying embroideries means wanting to look as good as possible. Don't gamble and settle for 'good enough.' The worst time to discover you have chosen the wrong embroidery is when opening the box.
History
Embroidery is a timeless art form with a rich history dating back thousands of years. Evidence of hand-embellished embroidery has been found dating back to 30,000 years ago, and the oldest surviving embroideries are of Scythian origin, dating to the 4th century BCE.
Throughout the centuries, embroidery has been used to create intricate and beautiful designs on a variety of materials, including the imperial court robes of the Qing dynasty (1644-1911). Despite the passage of time, the fundamental materials and techniques used in embroidery have remained unchanged, making it one of few technologies to be invented perfect.
Information
Embroidery is the most durable of all textile embellishments. The threads used in embroidery are often stronger than the fabric itself, which means that the longevity of the embroidery is largely determined by the durability of the fabric. This makes embroidery an excellent choice for decorating items that need to withstand wear and tear, such as clothing, bags, and accessories.
One of the key benefits of embroidery is the ability of the threads to retain their color and vibrancy over time. Because the threads are sewn directly into the fabric, they are able to withstand repeated washing and exposure to harsh chemicals such as chlorine. This means that embroidered items will maintain their original appearance and vibrancy, even after multiple boil washes or chlorine treatments.
With its strong seams and close threads, the embroidery is minimally stretchy and thus has the heaviest ‘hand’. An embroidery can always be felt by the fingers and in some cases — if applied to clothing — against the body.
Thread weight is a measurement used to indicate the thickness of a thread. It is measured on a scale that runs from 20 wt to 80 wt, with a lower number indicating a thicker, heavier thread and a higher number indicating a finer, thinner thread. The industry standard for thread weight is generally around 40 wt. In terms of stitch length, we recommend that individual stitches should be no fewer than 0.8 mm in length. For Sans Serif fonts, we recommend a minimum height of 4 mm.
Embroidery is an additive method of manufacture, which means that it involves adding materials rather than cutting or shaping them. This means that embroidery produces very little waste, making it an environmentally friendly and cost-effective option for many projects. At Jet Sport, we pride ourselves on our commitment to resource preservation and cost reduction. We carefully plan and optimize our processes to ensure that materials are used only where needed, maximizing efficiency and minimizing waste.
Modern, industrial embroidery is a mix of thousand-year-old sewing techniques and advanced electronic mechanics. The old-fashioned, texture-building sewing technique, by which patterns and colors are drafted onto textile surfaces by hand-sewn threads, are by SmartHead technology, LCD Touch Screen Displays, precision sewing, and intelligent tensioner systems promoted to a state-of-the-art instrument that begets exquisite logos for branding and other value-creating PR.
By far the most industrially manufactured embroideries today are made by digitized embroidery machines. Custom-made software dubbed DST files (Data Stitch Tajima, after Tajima Group, which initially developed the file type) contains digital instructions for which patterns and stitches are to embody the embroidery. These are read and employed by the machine to manufacture striking, consistent products.
DST-files are created through embroidery digitizing, a process by which illustrations are converted into a program the embroidery machine reads and converts into patterns and stitch types. These illustrations typically consist of either customer-submitted files or images we ourselves have created from scratch. For this, we prefer working with vector files rather than raster files. Find out why in our blog post about raster and vector files.
