Choose a garment panel before artwork sizing
Use a flat area away from apron pockets, polo plackets and chef jacket fastenings. Test at the smallest size. For embroidery on piqué, ask the decorator to test backing, topping and lettering at actual size.
Check decoration and laundry together
For transfers follow your supplier’s pressure, peel and cure instructions. Test on the chosen fabric and colour before bulk work. Check press marks, colour migration, loose thread ends and edge lift after the agreed wash cycle.
