2D PVC Patches
Full Details: 2D PVC patches feature a clean, flat construction with defined layers and smooth PVC surfaces. This style provides a modern and durable appearance while keeping the artwork clear and easy to recognize.
2D PVC is an excellent choice for logos, lettering, numbers, symbols, badges, outdoor graphics, team designs and other artwork where a clean profile is preferred.
PVC material is resistant to moisture and is suitable for many applications including uniforms, jackets, bags, caps, outdoor gear, workwear and branded products.
Customers can choose the patch size, shape, colors, border style, thickness and backing option according to the final application and artwork requirements.
3D PVC Patches
Full Details: 3D PVC patches use raised PVC elements to create visible depth and dimension within the patch design. The raised areas give the artwork a bold and premium appearance.
This style is ideal for logos, lettering, numbers, emblems, symbols and designs where selected elements need to stand out from the main patch surface.
Different raised levels can be incorporated into suitable artwork to create a dimensional effect while maintaining the durable characteristics of PVC.
3D PVC patches are commonly used for outdoor gear, tactical-style apparel, uniforms, clubs, teams, jackets, bags, caps and branded products.
2D + 3D PVC Patches
Full Details: 2D + 3D PVC patches combine flat PVC areas with raised 3D elements in one custom design. This combination creates stronger visual contrast, depth and dimension.
Flat 2D sections can be used for backgrounds, borders and detailed artwork, while selected lettering, logos or symbols can be raised to create a 3D effect.
This style is ideal for complex logos, brand marks, team badges, outdoor designs, club patches and premium custom products where both detail and dimensional effects are desired.
The final combination of flat and raised areas depends on the artwork. Different PVC colors, borders, thicknesses and backing options can also be selected for the finished patch.
