Embroidery Halifax - Atlantic Canada Experts

Embroidery uses needle and thread to stitch your logo directly into fabric. Your design is first "digitized"—converted into a stitch file that tells our machines exactly where to place each stitch. The result is a premium, textured finish that's extremely durable and professional-looking.

Digitizing converts your logo into a stitch file—programming where every thread goes. This is skilled manual work that we include FREE with your order. Once digitized, your logo is saved forever for free reorders. Halifax businesses pay nothing extra for digitizing.

Embroidery pricing is based on stitch count (design complexity) and quantity. A simple left-chest logo (5,000-8,000 stitches) on 24+ polos might run $6-10 per location. Larger designs cost more. The more items you order, the lower your per-piece price.

Our embroidery minimum is 12 pieces—perfect for small Halifax businesses. You can mix styles (polos, jackets, hats) within your order as long as placement and logo stay the same. Single items available at higher per-piece rates.

Left chest logos are typically 3.5-4 inches wide (8,000-10,000 stitches). Hat logos are usually 2-2.5 inches. Back logos can go up to 12 inches. Very small text (under 0.25 inches) and fine details don't embroider well—we'll advise if adjustments are needed.

Embroidery works best with solid colours and clean lines. Gradients, photographs, and fine details don't translate well to thread. Our digitizing team will advise Halifax clients if simplification is needed and can help adapt your logo for best results.

Embroidery is the most durable decoration method. Thread won't crack, peel, or fade like prints can. Embroidered logos last the lifetime of the garment and actually look better after washing. Ideal for Halifax corporate uniforms worn daily.

Polos, dress shirts, jackets, and structured caps embroider beautifully. Tightly woven fabrics hold stitches best. Fleece and terry cloth are challenging. Very thin or stretchy fabrics may need backing. We'll guide you to the best garment choices.

We stock hundreds of thread colours and match most brand standards closely. Thread colour matching isn't exact to Pantone, but we get very close. Halifax businesses provide colour codes and we select the closest thread match.

Standard turnaround is 10-14 business days from artwork approval. First orders include digitizing time. Reorders are faster since your logo is saved. Rush orders available for urgent Halifax corporate needs.

Common placements: left chest (most popular), right chest, sleeves, upper back, and collar. Hat embroidery on front panels and sides. Multiple locations available—many Halifax clients do left chest logo plus name on right chest.
