Backside Craft Short Note of Embroidery Badge

Recently, we receive some friends’ message, they are curious about the backside craft of the embroidery badge. Therefore, we would like to talk about it.

Normally, we have 7 kinds of the backside craft of the embroidery badge, they are plastic (hard PVC) back, plain on back, iron-on back, self-adhesive tape + wax paper, Velcro on back, thin paper back, and thin cloth back. Here below are more detail information about different back methods.

Plastic (hard PVC) back — This would be generally suggested using for the patches as the uniform accessories for the police department or government as it can make the embroidery badge more stiff. The stiff looking of the badges would meet the image of the police officers or soldiers closer. Also, it can cover the thread ends on the backside so that the backside of the badge would look more flat and neat. Actually, the plastic back is also a kind of water-proof and been widely used for the patches like coaster.

Plastic (hard PVC) back

Iron-on back — It is the most popular backing method for the patches. It’s soft and smooth. The glue effect is stronger than the plastic back. We can assemble it with ironing on the clothes.

Self-adhesive tape + wax paper — We can use it repeatedly and randomly. You can use the alcohol to clean it after peeling off it from some places, then you can stick it to be new places wherever you like.

 Self-adhesive backing

Velcro on back — We need to stitch the hook piece on the backside of the embroidery badge, and then we stick the loop side on the hook, then we can pick it out. It can protect the patch very well from washing frequently.
