How It Works

Computerised Embroidery —
The Professional Finish

Embroidery is the art of stitching your design directly onto garments, caps, bags, and accessories using our high-tech computerised embroidery machines. It delivers a sleek, professional, hardwearing, and durable finish that is widely considered the gold standard for workwear, sports kits, and uniforms.

Embroidery is almost always the first choice when a truly professional appearance is required — the raised, textured finish of embroidery conveys quality that print alone cannot replicate.

How Our Embroidery Process Works

1

Submit Your Artwork

Upload your logo in any format — AI, EPS, SVG, PDF, PNG, or JPG. Our team will assess and advise if any artwork preparation is needed.

2

Digitisation — One-Off €35 Charge

Our specialist team uses professional software to convert (digitise) your artwork into a format our embroidery machines can read. This one-off €35 charge covers all future orders — once digitised, your file is stored permanently on our system.

3

Digital Proof & Swatch Approval

We send you a digital mock-up and, where relevant, an embroidery thread swatch for your approval. We will never produce your order without your explicit sign-off.

4

In-House Production

Your garments are embroidered on-site in our Dublin facility using industrial multi-head embroidery machines. Every item is quality-checked individually before dispatch.

5

Delivery & Easy Reordering

Dispatched to your door within 3–5 working days of proof approval. Your digitised artwork is permanently saved — repeat orders skip the €35 setup, making reordering faster and more economical.

Embroidery Artwork Tips

Every design is digitised, regardless of format

Unlike print, embroidery always requires your file to be converted into a stitch file by our team — this is the €35 digitisation charge, a one-off cost per design.

Avoid very small text or fine detail

Thread has a minimum practical stitch width. Text below roughly 5-6mm tall or very fine linework may not embroider cleanly — we'll flag this and suggest an alternative.

Thread colours are matched, not identical

Embroidery thread comes in a fixed colour range. We match your artwork or Pantone reference to the closest available thread and confirm on your digital proof.

Solid blocks of colour stitch best

Gradients and photographic detail don't translate well to thread. Bold, simplified logos with clear colour blocks produce the strongest embroidered result.

Embroidery Format Suitability
Format Suitability Notes
AI / EPS / SVG Ideal Cleanest digitisation, any size
PDF Acceptable Vector PDFs work well
PNG / JPG (300 DPI+) Acceptable Fine for simple logos
PNG / JPG (low res) Recreation needed May incur a redraw fee
Photographs / gradients Not suitable Consider print instead
Every embroidery order includes a digital proof and, where useful, a stitched thread swatch — nothing goes to production without your written approval.
