When you want custom apparel that looks premium, feels premium, and holds up over time, embroidery is the answer. Stitched directly into the fabric with durable thread, an embroidered logo doesn't peel, crack, or fade — it simply lasts. At PrintPress in Drummondville, QC, our embroidery department handles everything from corporate polos to branded caps, delivering consistent results that reflect the quality of your brand.
Why Embroidery Stands Out
- Prestige and professionalism: embroidery has a texture and depth that signals quality the moment someone sees it — or touches it. It elevates any garment from standard to exceptional.
- Exceptional durability: thread doesn't fade with UV exposure the way inks can. An embroidered polo can be washed hundreds of times and still look sharp. This makes embroidery the preferred choice for long-term uniforms.
- Rich color options: thread comes in thousands of colors, and our team can match your brand palette closely — including Pantone-equivalent colors — for consistency across all your branded items.
- Works on structured fabrics: polo shirts, fleece jackets, softshell vests, work shirts, and hats all take embroidery beautifully.
Best Garments for Embroidery
Polo shirts are the most popular garment for embroidered logos — the chest placement is standard, and the piqué fabric holds stitching perfectly. Structured caps and baseball hats are a close second: a raised logo on a quality cap is one of the most effective branding tools available. Other great candidates include fleece jackets, button-down shirts, aprons, and tote bags.
Embroidery is less ideal for very thin or stretchy fabrics like athletic wear, where the backing and stitching can create stiffness or distortion.
From Logo to Finished Garment
The process starts with digitizing your artwork — converting it into a stitch file that our embroidery machines can read. This is a skilled process that determines the stitch type, density, and direction for every element of your design. Our team handles all digitizing in-house and will send you a proof before production begins.
Once approved, your garments are hooped and run through our commercial embroidery machines with precision. Quality control is performed on every piece before shipping.
3D Embroidery Option
For an even more dramatic look, ask about our 3D puff embroidery, which uses a foam underlayer to create a raised, three-dimensional logo. It's especially popular on structured caps and creates a standout effect that can't be achieved any other way.
