What embroidery backings does PODpartner use?
PODpartner uses two types of embroidery backings to ensure high quality and comfort for our clients. Both backings are environmentally certified, showcasing our commitment to sustainability.
Paper backing: This is a layer of material that is placed under the fabric during the embroidery process. It acts as a stabilizer, supporting the fabric and stitches to prevent puckering. This backing also helps to improve the smoothness of the finished embroidery.
Comfort cover backing: After the embroidery is complete, we apply a layer of comfort cover backing to the back of the embroidery. This backing material is designed to provide comfort and protection against skin irritation. Applying the comfort cover backing is one of the unique services we offer.
Will adding DTG printing to my custom embroidery order increase the production time?
Absolutely not! Integrating DTG printing into your custom embroidery order won't extend the production time. For detailed shipping information, please visit the "Shipping" section in the navigation bar on our website.
What are the stitch types of embroidery PODpartner offers?
PODpartner currently only offers flat embroidery, also known as satin stitch embroidery. This method involves stitching parallel stitches closely together to achieve a smooth, solid surface. It's highly versatile, allowing for various designs ranging from simple text to intricate patterns and even photorealistic images.
What embroidery machine do you use for embroidery?
The Tajima TMEZ-S1501C is a high-quality commercial embroidery machine used by PODpartner. Known for its reliability and excellent embroidery quality, it's designed for fast and efficient production of intricate designs.
Can embroidery be combined with DTG？
Yes, embroidery can be combined with DTG to create unique and eye-catching designs on garments on PODpartner. When using both DTG printing and embroidery on a single garment, an additional multi-process fee of $2.99 applies due to increased production complexity.

Can I have garments embroidered in more than one location?
