100% Embroidered Badge refers to the entire surface of the badge being made entirely of embroidery technology, without any other non embroidery materials (such as printing, heat transfer printing, etc.) participating in the presentation of the pattern. This badge has become a popular choice for various clothing, accessories, luggage and other decorations due to its exquisite craftsmanship, rich colors and three-dimensional sense.
2、 Characteristics of 100% Embroidered Badges
High quality and durability
Embroidery process advantages: Embroidery threads are usually made of high-strength fiber materials, such as polyester fibers, which have good wear resistance and fade resistance. Compared with printed badges, 100% embroidered badges are less prone to wear and fading during long-term use and cleaning, and can maintain their brightness and integrity for a longer period of time.
Structural stability: The embroidery thread is tightly interwoven on the base fabric, forming a stable structure that makes the badge less prone to deformation and unraveling, and has high durability.
Rich colors and three-dimensional sense
Color diversity: Embroidery threads come in a variety of colors to choose from, which can meet different design needs and achieve rich color combinations. Whether it's bright color combinations or soft tone transitions, they can be accurately presented through embroidery techniques.
Stereoscopic visual effect: Due to the three-dimensional stacking of embroidery threads on the base, the badge pattern has a clear sense of three dimensionality, making the pattern more vivid and realistic, enhancing the visual impact. For example, when embroidering a flower, the layered and three-dimensional feeling of the petals can make the flower look more delicate and juicy.
Personalized customization
Design flexibility: 100% embroidered badges can be personalized according to customers' specific needs, whether it is simple text, logos, or complex patterns and scenes, all can be achieved through embroidery technology. Customers can freely choose the shape, size, color, and pattern of the badge to create a unique one.
Small batch production: Compared to some large-scale badge making techniques, embroidery is more suitable for small batch production. Even if customers only need a small number of badges, they can still customize them to meet their personalized needs.

Choose the appropriate base fabric based on the usage scenario and design requirements of the badge.
Embroidery thread selection: As mentioned earlier, embroidery thread is usually made of high-strength materials such as polyester fibers. When choosing embroidery thread, factors such as color, thickness, and glossiness should be considered to ensure that it matches the color and effect of the design draft.

During the embroidery process, it is important to closely monitor the quality of the embroidery, adjust machine parameters in a timely manner, and ensure the uniformity, tightness, and accuracy of the embroidery lines and patterns.
Post processing
Trimming: After embroidery is completed, use scissors to trim the excess fabric around the badge neatly, making the shape of the badge more regular.
