Promotional and logo apparel, your specification
Made to your tech pack, fabric and colours by a factory matched to the order.
Private label
Your main label, care label, hangtag and polybag. Nominated trims accepted.
Promotional and logo apparel is bought around a logo and a date. A conference, a launch, a staff day or a sponsor pack needs tees, polos, hoodies and bags that carry the same mark in the same colour, packed so they can be handed out without sorting. A promotional and logo apparel manufacturer in Bangladesh suits the order when volumes run to hundreds per product and the date is months away, not weeks.
Garments Hub BD splits the order by product, sends tees, polos and hoodies to knit plants and bags to a jute or canvas unit on its bench, and asks each to quote with the decoration method that suits its fabric. Strike offs on each material come back for approval against one colour reference before bulk decoration starts.
Products in a promotional and logo apparel order
Logo tees
Cotton or poly cotton jersey, screen printed for most logos, with a chest or full front print. The volume piece of any giveaway, and an economical place to carry a large graphic.
Embroidered polos
Pique polos with a left chest logo for staff, exhibitions and corporate gifts. Embroidery reads smarter than print on a pique surface and holds up through many washes.
Hoodies and sweatshirts
Fleece with an embroidered or printed logo for teams, staff and sponsor packs. A heavier fleece takes larger embroidery without puckering around the edge of the design.
Jute and cotton tote bags
Screen printed bags for event packs and retail giveaways. Jute's coarse surface takes bold, simple artwork; fine lines and small text belong on a cotton canvas tote.
Caps
Caps have no factory bench yet. For a cap line, a unit is found, vetted and visited for the enquiry, and the reply is a real quote or a straight no within 5 working days.
How to specify logo apparel for one artwork
- One artwork master
- Vector artwork with a colour reference number per colour and the thinnest line in the logo, plus the logo size for each product and position.
- Logo size and position
- Typically 7 to 10 cm wide on a left chest and up to about 30 cm on a full front, measured from the collar or shoulder seam.
- Decoration per product
- Screen print, embroidery, heat transfer or digital print, chosen per fabric. A logo printed on tees and embroidered on polos needs two approved versions of the artwork.
- Colour across materials
- One colour reference on jersey, pique, fleece and jute will not look identical. Agree a tolerance and approve a strike off on each material.
- Quantities per product and colour
- Quantity per product, per garment colour and per size. The minimum applies per colour on each product, so a long colour list multiplies the order.
- Packing instructions
- Folded with a size sticker, bagged singly or in tens, and packed by size, recipient list or event location, with carton labels to match.
Tests to ask a promotional and logo apparel manufacturer in Bangladesh for
- ISO 105-C06
- Colour fastness to washing for printed and embroidered logos. Test with the actual ink and thread, because a red logo that bleeds onto a white tee is a wasted giveaway.
- US CPSIA
- A kids' event tee sized for age 12 and under is a children's product in the US: prints and coatings tested for lead at a CPSC accepted laboratory, a tracking label and a Children's Product Certificate.
- EU REACH Annex XVII
- Entry 43 restricts azo dyes that release listed amines above 30 mg/kg. Free giveaways count as placing on the market, so ask for dye and ink declarations for EU events.
What moves the price of promotional and logo apparel
- Screen print price climbs with each colour in the logo, since each needs its own screen.
- Embroidery is priced by stitch count, so a dense, filled logo costs more than an outline.
- Each extra product carries its own setup, sample and minimum per colour.
- Several print positions per garment, such as chest, back and sleeve, each add a pass.
- Individual folding, size stickers and packing by recipient list add hand labour.
Lead time for promotional and logo apparel
Work back from the date the goods must be in hand. Strike offs on each material come first, then samples in the usual 7 to 14 days, then bulk, typically 30 to 60 days from PP approval, then sea freight. The common 60 to 90 days from order confirmation to shipment comes before transit, so an event under about four months away is usually too close. The quote confirms the dates.
What we check on promotional and logo apparel before shipment
- Logo positionLogo placement measured from collar or shoulder seam on each product and size, against the approved position sheet.
- Colour across materialsLogo on tee, polo, hoodie and bag laid together and judged against the colour reference under the agreed light.
- Print and stitch durabilityPrints stretched for cracking and checked after a wash; embroidery checked for loose threads, puckering and clean trimmed backing.
- Packing against the listCounts per size, recipient or location checked carton by carton against the buyer's packing list.
Questions buyers ask about promotional and logo apparel
Can one order mix tees, polos, hoodies and bags under one logo?
Yes. Send one enquiry with every product, colour and quantity. Garments go to knit plants and bags to a bag unit, and the quotes come back together. Each product carries its own minimum per colour, so trimming the colour list is the usual way to keep small lines viable.
Embroidery or print on a polo?
Embroidery on pique suits a logo up to about 10 cm wide: it looks tailored and survives repeated washing. Print suits large or detailed artwork and keeps cost down at volume. Text smaller than about 5 mm high does not embroider cleanly, so simplify that part of the logo or print it.
Will the logo colour match on a tee and a jute bag?
Close, not identical. Jute is a coarse, brown fibre that dulls and warms any ink, and pique or fleece show colour differently from smooth jersey. Approve a strike off on each material against one colour reference, and agree in writing how far each may sit from it.
How far ahead should an event merchandise order be placed?
Count back from the date the goods must be in hand: sampling and approvals, then production, typically 60 to 90 days from confirmation to shipment, then sea freight. For most destinations that means ordering four to five months ahead. A closer date is better served from stock held near the event.
