Make That Logo Last Longer by Investing in Embroidery Digitizing Services

Every firm seeks to reinstate the faith of its employees, time and again, to make them feel valued and a special part of the organization. For this, companies arrange for annual days, movie days and other expensive employee engagement programs. However, usually it is the simple things that count for any employer to earn that special place amongst its employees. For instance; having a uniform in the organization does wonders for the self esteem of employees, even as it makes them the brand ambassadors of that particular firm. A small logo on the uniform that speaks of the organization is of great worth to employees, making them feel a sense of belonging and much valued. And, this is where embroidery digitizing services come into the picture.

More often than not, companies choose to get their logos printed onto the fabric. While this seems to be a quick solution, these logos tend to fade away with time. Also, in other cases companies choose to get the logos embossed onto uniforms. But the downside of this type of printing is that although it sticks to the fabric for a longer time, the color starts to chip off even as the texture of the fabric continues to look swell. Choosing to invest in an embroidery digitizing service helps overcome both these drawbacks.

Embroidery digitizing service as a process, converts simple designs into digital files, which can be easily read by embroidery machines and is then stitched onto different types of fabrics. An embroidery digitizing service is a viable option and proves to be a sound investment, since it not only makes the logo last longer, but also allows the design to be stitched onto any kind of merchandise. Be it a cap, a jacket, a shirt or a bag, digitization helps get the designs onto a range of fabrics in no time, and the results are always flattering, giving your employees the liberty to flaunt their logos in a number of ways.

Taking your Fashion House Places with a Dedicated Embroidery Digitizer

Every season brings with it a whole new range of fresh fashion trends. With the western fashion market having a huge influence on the orient, every year one gets to sport varied kinds of trends. However, if we talk about one fashion trend that has maintained its worth down the ages and has continued to earn a coveted space in wardrobes all across the globe, it is embroidery. Be it scarves, overcoats, hats, sweaters or even handbags, elegant embroidery is something that has been a thing of fancy for generations of mothers, grandmothers and daughters alike. With this trend attaining a global stature, the embroidery digitizer has also gained prime importance in the fashion market.

An embroidery digitizer is responsible for converting your designs into digitized formats, which are then read by smart embroidery machines that stitch the artwork onto the fabric. This method is highly convenient and serves a great deal of purposes for fashion houses and apparel brands. While you may find a plethora of embroidery digitizers operating in a singular capacity, you would benefit from collaborating with a digitization company that hosts a team of embroidery digitizers, so that you can benefit from the collective experience and professional touch that comes with having a dedicated professional allocated for your work. There can also be times when a particular design is not embroidery friendly and cannot be stitched onto a particular fabric. At such times, a professional embroidery digitizer fine-tunes the design to make it ‘stitch friendly’ and fit for production.

At Express Digitising, we make sure that your fashion house rolls out trendy embroidery merchandise, season after season, to impress loyalists from across the world. Backed with a highly skilled team, we provide affordable services to our clients with a quick turnaround time and optimized processes.

The Embroidery Digitizer Factsheet

At Express Digitising, we make sure that you get the best possible digitization service in the industry. However, that is made possible only with the help of a talented team of embroidery digitizers that work behind the scenes to make your vision come alive on fabric. While software skills and a keen understanding of embroidery practices is what everyone primarily looks for before hiring an embroidery digitizer, we go ahead to ensure the following traits as well for our team members:
  • Analysis: Digitization not only uses software, but is also affected by the dynamics of thread, stitch and fabric. We make sure that the embroidery digitizer hired by us has the right analytical skills to effectively use the synergies of software and machine in order to produce the desired results.
  • Investigation: We only hire such embroidery digitizers who have a knack for research and investigation, as we believe to get the right output a digitizer will have to go through a number of stitch styles, font types, color combinations and more before he can begin replicating your creation in code.
  • Foresight: An embroidery digitizer should be able to have enough foresight, so that he can pre-conceive the consequences of a particular change, rather than always rely on the time-consuming trial and error method. He should also have enough experience to be able to look at a design and judge whether it is embroidery-friendly or not, and what kind of changes can help it retain its identity, while making it more stitchable.
  • Troubleshoot: One of the major responsibilities of an Embroidery Digitiser is to be quick with issue resolutions. We ensure that each of our talented team members work with a solution-oriented approach, so that they can replicate your artwork to the tee, while ensuring seamless production runs later.

Why Outsourcing Your Embroidery Digitizing Makes Sense?

Growth and ambition are the only two constants that ensure the survival of a business in a competitive economy like todays. Given the amount of time and energy it takes to keep up growth initiatives, it makes one wish that there’d be more than 24 hours in a day to accomplish tasks. However, since that’s something unlikely to happen, it only makes sense to outsource a few specialized tasks such as embroidery digitizing to a professional agency that can deliver high quality output at a much lower cost than it would take to run the same in-house.

Cost saving is one of the foremost motivators that has made our clients take the decision to outsource their Digitizing Embroidery. It is not only due to our competitive pricing, but also since they end up saving on infrastructure costs, costs related to acquiring talent, retaining and nurturing this talent, as well as other auxiliary costs like paying for initial and subsequent upgrades of digitization software. Also, having professional embroidery digitizing service partner on call gives you the flexibility to deal with varying workloads and automatically downsize or upgrade according to your needs, without worrying much about how those numbers would look on your annual report.

The second most important factor that makes it worth your while to outsource the embroidery digitizing part of your business is saving time. Since running an additional department takes a considerable time investment, from delegating tasks to supervising productivity and everything in between, by outsourcing it you could utilize such free time to strategize and work on moving ahead. You could use this time to rather concentrate on your core business and let professional embroidery digitizing service provider handle the rest. Also, needless to say, since you will be entrusting a professional company in the field of embroidery digitizing, you can also expect to receive output that ranks high on quality and is delivered well within the framework of your timelines.

Digitising Embroidery and Tattoo Art: A Comparison

We believe that embroidery has always been a way of preserving memories and self expression much like any other artistic endeavor such as getting tattoos. Both arts have given communities a way of preserving elements symbolic of their culture and passing them down to generations. Just like tattoo parlors have become the next step to elders of the tribe imprinting the young, digitising embroidery is the next step to what we have been used to seeing our grandmothers labor over.

Much like getting a tattoo, digitising embroidery involves a process. Just like you would walk over to a tattoo artist with your vision and ask how it can be best brought to life on your body, similarly a digitising embroidery professional or digitizer is the person who lets you know about the “sewability” of your design.

The nest step involves the collaboration. In case your artwork is deemed embroidery-friendly, our team of artists begins developing the design as a digital file using embroidery software. However, just as a tattoo artist may at times come back with modifications to help deliver a design that is both executable and yet, evokes the same emotion as the original; in the process of digitising embroidery, our digitizers may get back to you with an alternate that would be stitch-friendly, without losing out on the essence of your design. The aim being to deliver an end product that takes your artwork or philosophy and puts it onto a completely different medium to convey the message in a manner that is admired by one and all.

While in terms of execution the similarities between tattoo art and digitising embroidery seem to end here, the essence remains the same. With clients coming to us with requests for left chest, portrait and full back designs, we could not help but draw a comparison. However, choosing embroidery to preserve your memories or values for life does prove to be an absolutely painless way of self-expression. And, not to mention, the benefit of flat rates makes digitising embroidery all the more charming.
