About this product
Embroidery Heat Transfer Patches are embroidered fabric patches with a hot-melt backing that bonds to the garment under heat and pressure. They are used on uniforms, jackets, denim, teamwear, repair projects and cotton or polyester garments that require embroidered decoration without routine sewing.

Use details
The hot-melt backing allows embroidered patches to be applied by heat press or household iron, reducing sewing work on uniforms, denim and promotional apparel.

Dense thread coverage keeps logos and lettering visible on high-contact garment areas, so the embroidered face stays clear during daily use.

Full-back adhesive coverage and controlled edge finishing help the patch lie flat after pressing, reducing corner lifting on badges and shaped logo applications.

Questions before ordering
Q: Why do coated fabrics require a pressing test?
A: Waterproof and low-surface-energy coatings can block the hot-melt film from reaching the fabric fibers and reduce bond strength.
Q: What causes patch corners to lift after pressing?
A: Uneven pressure, insufficient heating, a contaminated fabric surface or an edge not fully covered by the press can cause lifting.
Q: Can a heat-transfer patch be applied across a seam?
A: Seams create uneven thickness and pressure, so the patch should be positioned on a flat panel whenever possible.
Q: Can a pressed patch be repositioned?
A: Heat-activated backing is not designed for repositioning; reheating and removal can distort the patch or leave adhesive on the garment.
