CUSTOMIZE
Make it custom
We offer a range of services to customize products with your company's signature logo or a personalized design. Each brings a special sentiment to gifts, rewards and incentives.
Embroidery
Available on our ballistic and leather products, each product
is embroidered individually to ensure the finest quality possible. Up to 8 colors
may be used.
The cost of embroidery depends on how many stitches are in the
design. Logos or designs need to be digitized and set-up (see set-up charge table).
This is a one time charge. Digitizing is the process by which an embroidery artist
turns a logo into stitches and creates instructions which tell an embroidery machine
what to stich on an item. Prices below are based on one logo embroidery up to 12,000
stitches (up to 8 colors) in one location. Multiple locations may require additional
running charges.
Minimum image area for
embroidery: 3.5" wide per location
Production time: 3-4 weeks
Debossing
In addition to logos and designs, full names can be
heat-stamped onto our leather products. This creates a permanent impression that
won't peel or flake off. Foil can also be used for added color.
Debossing:
The stock letter style for debossing is a 36 pt Times Roman
font. Other styles may be available, please call 1.800.669.3181 for details.
Laser Engraving
Etched into metal or plastic surfaces, the small size of the
beam allows for high levels of detail.
For Custom Laser Engraving call 1-800-669-3181
Monogramming
Done through the same process of debossing, monograms are
unique to each product. Depending on the size of the monogram patch, up to four
letters or initials may be featured.
Decorating Techniques Explained
Debossing: pressing an image into the surface of an item under
intense heat, creating depressions rather than raised impressions. This allows any
design, logo, or initials to leave a permanent impression that will never peel or
flake off.
Embroidery: is a process that starts with digitization. Digitization
translates a logo or design into instructions which tell the embroidery machine what
to stitch on an item. This is a fairly complex process which requires a one-time
setup charge.
Laser Engraving: is used to etch a logo or design into a metal or plastic
service. The small size of the beam lends itself in producing highly detailed logos
or designs.
