Orbit International in-house embroidery

Embroidery and embellishment, done in house

Our in-house embroidery facility gives you control over both numbers and complexity, on any garment in the Orbit range. Heat seal logos and badges are added here too, in large or small runs.

From your image or file we create the artwork and a sample for your approval, then store it for your exclusive use.
