Detailed description
Branding pieces are bought on how they survive the wash and the iron, not on how they look in a render. The specification that decides both is the material and the way it is attached.
Where it is used
It goes onto polyester sports fabric, cotton drill, nylon outerwear, canvas bags and caps. The one combination that fails most often is a heat transfer onto a coated or water-repellent fabric, because the coating releases before the adhesive cures.
The material question
The construction is embroidered, so the edge and the stitch density are the specification. A Merrowed edge holds a shape on a curved surface; a laser-cut edge sits flatter on fine fabric. Stitch count per centimetre decides both the look and the price.
How it is quoted
Minimum order is set by the sheet, not by the design: several small designs can share one run, which is how a club with six logos keeps the unit cost close to a single-logo order.
What ships with the goods
Each carton is marked with the design reference, size, quantity and lot, and the artwork reference is repeated on the packing list so a mixed shipment can be checked without opening every carton.
Checking it on arrival
Press one piece onto the actual fabric with your own settings before the run starts. The failure mode on transfers is almost always the press, not the film, and it is cheaper to find that on one piece than on five hundred.
If this is a repeat order, send the previous artwork reference and we will quote against the tooling already on file.
