Screen Printed Embroidered Patches | Bold Colors with Embroidery Texture
Overview
Screen printed embroidered patches offer the best of both worlds: the vibrant, full-color capabilities of screen printing combined with the classic texture and durability of embroidery. This hybrid approach allows for bold color fills and intricate details, perfect for making logos and designs pop. With screen printing, you can achieve high-resolution images, while embroidery adds a raised, tactile element that brings designs to life.
These patches are an ideal choice for businesses, organizations, and teams looking to make a strong impression with branded apparel and accessories. Whether you need patches for uniforms, bags, or promotional items, screen printed embroidered patches are versatile, eye-catching, and built to last.

- Bags & Backpacks: Perfect for promotional tote bags, backpacks, and other accessories, giving them a high-quality branded touch.
- Promotional Items: Screen printed embroidered patches are great for giveaways and merchandise, combining color depth with durability for maximum impact.

Application Instructions (Sew-On Only)
Screen printed embroidered patches are designed to be sew-on only, providing a secure, lasting attachment for your garments and accessories. Here’s how to properly apply them:
- Position the Patch: Place the patch in your desired location on the fabric. Use pins or fabric tape to hold it securely in place, ensuring alignment.
- Sew Around the Edges: Using a needle and thread or a sewing machine, stitch around the edge of the patch. Choose a thread color that matches the edge or your design for a seamless look.
- Optional Reinforcement: For extra durability, especially on high-wear items like bags or jackets, consider adding additional stitches along any inner borders or design elements.
Note: Since these patches are sew-on only, they work well on materials that may not hold adhesives well, such as textured or thick fabrics. This makes them an ideal choice for long-lasting applications on a wide variety of garments and accessories.
Care Tips
To maintain the color vibrancy and texture of your screen printed embroidered patches, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Turn garments inside out and wash on a gentle cycle in cold water. Avoid bleach and harsh detergents, as these can weaken both the colors and stitching.
- Drying: Air drying is ideal to prevent damage to the patch and fabric. If using a dryer, select a low-heat setting to preserve color and stitching.
- Ironing: Avoid direct ironing on the patch, as it can affect the colors. If ironing is necessary, place a cloth over the patch or iron around it to protect the design.
Proper care will keep your patches looking vibrant and securely attached, ensuring a long lifespan even with frequent wear.
