Why Choose Custom Iron-On Embroidered Patches?
Embroidery gives a logo visible texture and dimension. In addition, sublimation can reproduce gradients and detailed color areas that embroidery alone may simplify.
- Premium stitched appearance: Embroidery adds texture to logos, lettering and borders.
- More flexible artwork: Sublimation detail works well for gradients and complex color transitions.
- Clean finished edge: A Merrow border gives round and regular shapes a defined embroidered edge.
- Easy garment application: Iron-on backing provides a practical attachment option for compatible fabrics.
- Full customization: Adjust the logo, size, shape, color and backing for your project.

Applications
These custom embroidered logo patches work well on caps, hats, jackets, sweatshirts, uniforms, outerwear and bags. For example, brands can use them for apparel collections, staff uniforms, promotional merchandise and resale patch programs.
However, the best construction depends on the final garment. Therefore, send us your artwork and application before production so we can review the patch size, border and backing together.
Production and Quality Confidence
For B2B buyers, consistent production matters as much as appearance. We review artwork, dimensions, colors, border construction and backing requirements before bulk production.
You can review DOY’s SGS verification information for supplier-assessment details. In addition, our production facility information provides more background on manufacturing and quality-control resources.
Before requesting a quote, send your logo or artwork, required size, quantity, Pantone references, backing preference, application and destination. This information helps us recommend a practical production solution and prepare a more accurate quotation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the MOQ for custom iron-on embroidered patches?
The standard MOQ is 100 pieces. Final order requirements may vary with patch size, artwork complexity and production specifications.
Can you customize the size and shape?
Yes. The sample shown is round, but we can review custom sizes and shapes based on your artwork and intended application.
Can embroidery and sublimation be combined?
Yes. This design combines embroidered areas with sublimation detail. As a result, the patch can keep stitched texture while reproducing selected gradients or more complex color areas.
What is a Merrow border?
A Merrow border is a raised embroidered edge commonly used around round and regular patch shapes. It creates a clean and clearly defined finish.
Can you match our brand colors?
Yes. Please provide Pantone references when possible. Because thread and sublimated areas reproduce color differently, we recommend confirming the final appearance before bulk production.
Is iron-on backing suitable for every fabric?
No. Iron-on backing works with many heat-compatible garments, but some fabrics are sensitive to heat. Therefore, confirm the garment material and application conditions before production.
What information should I send for a quotation?
Please send your artwork, patch size, required quantity, color references, backing preference, application, packaging requirements and destination country.
Can you provide certification or supplier verification information?
Yes. DOY can provide relevant company or supplier verification information. Product-level certification depends on the exact material, construction and applicable certificate scope, so we confirm it separately when required.
