Custom Workwear - Logo Printed or Embroidered

Embroidery uses thread stitched directly into the fabric to create a raised, textured finish that is ideal for logos, text, and brand marks on polo shirts, jackets, and caps. Printing, whether screen printing, DTF, or DTG, applies ink or a transfer onto the surface of the garment, making it better suited to detailed artwork, full-colour designs, and larger print areas. Both methods produce a professional, long-lasting result — the right choice depends on your garment type, design complexity, and the finish you're after. Our team at Garment Printing will recommend the best method for your logo and workwear style.

At Garment Printing, we cater to businesses of all sizes — from sole traders needing a single embroidered polo to large teams requiring hundreds of printed uniforms. Minimum order quantities vary depending on the decoration method and garment type. Screen printing is generally more cost-effective from 20 units upwards, while embroidery and DTF printing can be done on smaller runs. Get in touch with our team and we'll find the most cost-effective solution for your order size.

The cost of custom printed workwear in Australia depends on several factors — the garment blank you choose, the decoration method, the number of print locations, design complexity, and order quantity. As a general guide, embroidered work polos start from around $30–$50 per unit, screen printed t-shirts from $15–$30 per unit at volume, and DTF printed workwear from $20–$40 per unit for smaller runs. The more units you order, the lower your cost per garment. Contact Garment Printing for a fast, obligation-free quote tailored to your specific requirements.

Standard turnaround time for custom printed and embroidered workwear at Garment Printing is typically 7–12 business days from the date your artwork is approved and your order is confirmed. Turnaround time varies depending on the decoration method, order quantity, and garment availability. Embroidery orders require digitising of your logo before production begins, which is factored into this timeline. If you have an urgent deadline, we offer express turnaround options — contact our team before placing your order to confirm availability.

For the best possible result on your custom workwear, we recommend supplying your logo as a vector file in AI, EPS, or PDF format. Vector files are resolution-independent, meaning your design will print cleanly and sharply at any size without pixelation. If you only have a raster file such as a PNG or JPG, it should be a minimum of 300 DPI at the intended print size. For embroidery orders, our in-house team will digitise your artwork from your supplied file at no extra cost. If you're unsure about your file, simply send it through and our design team at Garment Printing will assess it and advise accordingly.

Yes — Garment Printing offers custom logo printing and embroidery on a full range of hi-vis workwear, including hi-vis shirts, vests, jackets, and pants from leading Australian brands including Syzmik, DNC Workwear, JB's Wear, and Portwest. Both screen printing and embroidery are available on hi-vis garments, with placement options including left chest, right chest, back, and sleeves. All our hi-vis workwear meets Australian and New Zealand safety standards, and adding your logo does not affect the garment's compliance rating when applied within the approved placement zones.

To keep your custom printed or embroidered workwear looking its best for longer, turn garments inside out before washing and use a cold or warm machine wash cycle. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and dry cleaning solvents, as these can break down inks and loosen embroidery threads over time. For screen printed and DTF printed workwear, do not iron directly over the printed area — if ironing is necessary, apply heat to the reverse side of the fabric only. Embroidered garments are extremely durable and can withstand regular machine washing without any special precautions. Following these care instructions will ensure your Garment Printing workwear maintains a professional appearance through heavy, repeated use.

Garment Printing stocks and customises workwear from some of Australia's most trusted and popular brands.

Our team will help you select the right brand and garment style to suit your industry, budget, and branding requirements.
