3D Embroidery:

Bring your cap design to life with our 3D Embroidery. By adding foam or padding beneath the stitches, we achieve a dynamic, three-dimensional effect. This method accentuates certain parts of your design, giving it depth and a visually striking appeal.

Best For: Bold, thick fonts or lettering.

Placement: Ideal for the front branding of caps.

 

Flat Embroidery:
Dive into the world of classic cap embroidery with Flat Embroidery. Stitched straight onto the fabric, this method offers a sleek and neat finish without raised elements.

Placement: Versatile for front, back, and side cap branding.

 

  1. 3D Embroidery Badge:

    • Merging the allure of 3D embroidery with the adaptability of badges, the 3D Embroidery Badge technique embroiders designs onto a fabric piece, which is then affixed to the cap. These badges are created with a pronounced effect, courtesy of foam or padding.
    • Best For: Brands looking for depth in their design while retaining badge versatility.
    • Placement: Primarily for the front of the cap.
  2. Flat Embroidery Badge:

    • Experience the precision of the Flat Embroidery Badge. Designs are embroidered directly onto a fabric badge, which can then be either sewn or ironed onto the cap. This technique is the go-to for intricate logos, especially those that risk losing detail over a cap's center seam.
    • Best For: Detailed logos requiring pristine clarity.
    • Placement: Can be adjusted as per design preference.

 

Direct Transfer to Film (DTF) Technique:

Looking for a versatile cap printing method? The Direct Transfer to Film (DTF) approach prints designs first onto a special heat transfer film. By applying heat and pressure, your desired design seamlessly integrates onto the cap's fabric. Perfect for those intricate designs bursting with colors and even for those simple, clear-cut patterns.
