Puff Embroidery
Puff embroidery is done by placing a foam pad, or “puff,” onto your products and then having your embroidery machine sew an outline of your logo or design. Once this is complete you simply remove the excess puff around the outside of the embroidered outline and you’ve got a 3D design.
Puff embroidery is used almost exclusively on custom hats and caps to give your logo or design depth and height. Outside of headwear, Puff Embroidery is used on other heavy-fabric items like sweatshirts, hoodies, and workwear.
Benefits of Puff Embroidery at a Decoration Method
- Extremely durable – the design should outlast the garment itself.
- Your logo is more noticeable because of the 3D design, allowing you to truly stand out from the crowd!
Considerations for Puff Embroidery as a Decoration Method
- Puff Embroidery is not ideal for intricate designs because of the thickness necessary to achieve the 3D appearance.
- Puff embroidery can be more expensive than traditional embroidery because of the extra thread used.
