Which Embroidered Uniforms Suit Your Business?
The right embroidered uniforms depend on the job your team does. Polo shirts and work shirts suit customer-facing roles, softshells and fleeces suit outdoor trades, chef jackets and aprons suit kitchens, and smart jackets suit security staff. Every garment can carry your company logo, a name and a job title.
| Sector | Popular garments | Where the logo usually goes |
|---|---|---|
| Construction and trades | Softshells, fleeces, hoodies | Left chest; company name across the back |
| Hospitality and cafés | Chef jackets, aprons, tabards, polos | Left chest or apron bib |
| Healthcare and care | Tunics, polos, fleeces | Left chest with name below |
| Security | Jackets, shirts, jumpers | Left chest; "SECURITY" lettering |
| Offices and retail | Polos, work shirts | Left chest; small logo on sleeve |
Embroidered polo shirts are our most-ordered item in Chatham], because they look smart, wash well and suit almost every sector. We give guidance on fits and fabrics, because a polo that shrinks or fades after ten washes undoes the value of the embroidery. See the full garment range on our premium workwear embroidery page, or our uniform embroidery in Kent page for school and club uniforms.
Should You Choose Embroidery or Printing for Workwear?
Choose embroidery for garments that are washed often and need to look smart, such as polos, fleeces and jackets. Choose printing for large designs, full-colour artwork or lower-cost T-shirts for events. Embroidery lasts longer; printing handles detail and big areas better.
| Embroidery | Printing (DTF, vinyl, screen) | |
|---|---|---|
| Look | Raised, premium | Flat, smooth |
| Durability | Survives industrial washing | Good, can crack over time |
| Best for | Small logos, names, polos, jackets | Large back prints, photos, T-shirts |
| Detail | Limited on tiny text | Fine detail and gradients |
Many customers mix both: embroidered polos for staff and printed T-shirts for events. If custom workwear printing in Kent suits part of your order, see our custom T-shirt printing page.
How Much Does Business Uniform Embroidery Cost?
Business uniform embroidery at Print More starts custom price per logo, plus the cost of the garment. A one-off digitising fe converts your logo into a stitch file, and it is reused on every future order. Our prices dependon Order quantity.
The main cost drivers are stitch count (logo size and detail), the number of logo positions and the garment itself. Reorders cost less because your logo is already digitised, which is why it pays to use one supplier of branded workwear in Chatham rather than switching each time.
How Does Company Logo Embroidery Work?
Company logo embroidery follows four steps: send your logo, we digitise it and send a proof, we stitch a sample for approval, then we embroider the full order. Most orders are ready within 5 to 7 working days of sample approval.
- Send your logo: vector files (PDF, AI or EPS) give the cleanest result, but PNG and JPG work too.
- Digitising and proof: we convert the logo into a stitch file and confirm size, position and thread colours.
- Sample: we stitch one garment so you can check it in person.
- Production and collection: your full order is stitched, checked and ready to colle
In our experience, the most common problem is fine text below about 5mm high, which does not stitch cleanly. We tell you before we start and suggest a simpler version.
What Should You Check Before Ordering Professional Embroidered Uniforms?
Before ordering professional embroidered uniforms, check that the supplier stitches in-house, provides a physical sample, keeps your digitised logo on file, stocks garments that suit your work and confirms turnaround in writing. For hi-vis and protective clothing, check that the branding keeps the garment compliant.
Conclusion
For custom embroidered workwear in Chatham, choose a local supplier that stitches in-house, samples first and keeps your logo on file. Print More does all three from Luton High Street, for teams of any size across Medway and Kent.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you add staff names to embroidered workwear?
Yes. We can embroider individual names or job titles below your logo on each garment. Send us a spreadsheet of names and sizes with your order and we will match each name to the right garment, so every item is labelled and ready to hand out.
Do you supply personalised work clothing outside Kent?
Yes. Most of our customers are in Chatham, Medway and Kent. Your digitised logo stays on file, so repeat orders can be placed by phone, email or WhatsApp without visiting the shop.
How long does embroidery last on workwear?
Embroidery usually lasts as long as the garment itself, because the logo is stitched into the fabric rather than printed on top. To keep it looking sharp, wash garments inside out at 40°C, avoid bleach and do not iron directly over the stitching. Polyester threads hold their colour well, even with frequent washing.
