Custom Patch Design & Digitizing Services

Do you need custom patches but don't have the production-ready artwork your manufacturer requires? Neon Digitizing turns your logos, artwork, and sketches into clean, production-ready files for embroidered, PVC, woven, and other custom patch applications. We handle patch layout, artwork preparation, and embroidery digitizing with attention to the technical requirements of your chosen patch type.

For embroidered patches, we prepare stitch-ready files with appropriate stitch directions, density, underlay, and border details. For PVC, woven, and other patch applications, we create clean vector artwork that can be supplied directly to your manufacturer.

If you need a complete apparel setup, explore our Embroidery Digitizing service. If your original logo or artwork is blurry or low resolution, our Vector Art Services can help recreate it with clean, scalable artwork before the patch design process begins.

Technical Things

Technical Patch Preparation

Tell us how your patches will be produced and finished so we can prepare the artwork and files according to your manufacturer's requirements.

Merrowed vs. Laser-Cut Borders

We prepare the artwork outline and cut-line according to your required border style, whether your manufacturer uses a traditional merrowed edge or a laser-cut border.

Patch Backing Options

We account for common backing options such as Iron-on (Heat Seal), Velcro (Hook & Loop), and Sew-on backing when preparing the artwork and required edge clearance.

Workflow

Our Custom Patch Design Workflow

Step 1

Submit Your Logo or Artwork

Send us your logo, sketch, photograph, or existing artwork along with your preferred patch type, size, and any manufacturer requirements. If the artwork is low resolution, we can clean and recreate it through our Vector Art Service.

Step 2

Artwork & Technical Preparation

We prepare your artwork according to the selected patch type. For embroidered patches, our digitizers define stitch direction, density, underlay, sequencing, and borders. For PVC, woven, rubber, or leather patches, we prepare the required vector artwork.

Step 3

Design Review

We review the completed artwork to check the details, proportions, borders, and file preparation before delivery. If you have specific manufacturer requirements, we use them as part of the review process.

Step 4

Production-Ready File Delivery

Once the design is finalized, we deliver the required production files in the appropriate formats, such as DST, EMB, PES, AI, or EPS, depending on your patch type and manufacturer's requirements. You can then send the files directly to your patch manufacturer.

We provide all major industry formats including DST, EMB, PES, CND, EXP, and HUS. If your specific factory requires a unique format, just let us know and we will format it accordingly.
