Before taking any step to understanding custom PVC patches, let’s see that what exactly are the PVC patches.

What Is PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)?

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) is a synthetic plastic polymer. PVC patches are durable, easy to clean, flexible, water proof and light-weight. PVC patches are a cool option for all kinds of uses like morale, tactical, airsoft or even business and promotional logos. Manufactured from flexible material which feels and bends like rubber, the look of your custom pvc patches is only limited by your imagination.

What Makes PVC Patches So Special?
PVC patches, unlike embroidery patch, are waterproof and will never fade, fray, crack or peel, making them ideal for military morale patches, outdoor use, and sporting events, among other things. Patches made of PVC will add depth and dimension to your design while being very simple to clean with a damp cloth. You are able to use PVC patches that come with a variety of backing options, but Velcro backing is the most common.

Things To Consider When Creating PVC Patches

• Sew-on patches: a permanent way to add them to your uniform, hats or clothing, you can sew it directly onto clothes, jackets, bags, etc.
• Velcro Patches: Add hook-and-loop fasteners. One part is on the back and the other gets sewn onto the garment. This allows for easy removal. They can be attached in a number of different ways.
• Adding glow in the dark color can allow your design to be seen at night and is a fun way to have parts of your logo stand out.
• Deciding on 2D vs 3D is one of the biggest questions asked as it will determine if your design will have a sculpted look or a two-dimensional look.
• Since there is a thin separation between each color the next question is choosing the colors by sizing and backing.
