How to choose an embroidery company

There are numerous embroidery and workwear companies both on the Internet and in local directories, but how do you know who to trust?

We have built our business on a few basic ethics, namely honesty, quality and service.

When choosing and embroidery company to help with your clothing and workwear requirements, you are placing your trust (and money!) in their abilities to deliver what you need.

Its often a good idea to have a few questions to hand when speaking to a new supplier. Below are a few of these questions we feel are vitally important for any order.

• What is the total price?
Seems a basic question! Unfortunately, some companies give you one price to get your order, then add things like embroidery set up charges, delivery and many other costs that greatly inflates the overall price.

At Diamond Print Express, we don't have any hidden extras. Any costs are made clear at the time of ordering and are totally transparent.

• Will I see a proof?
You must insist on seeing a proof before the embroidery goes ahead. This enables you to check spellings, colours and general layout and make any necessary changes. We send digital proofs via email, this enables you to see exactly how your embroidered logo will look.

How long will my order take?
We have heard stories where customers have waited over a month to receive their order. Make sure you ask how long it will be for your order to be delivered.

Diamond print express offer a standard 7-10 working day service. We also offer a 4 day express service for those urgent orders. Please ask us for details as this express service must be agreed by ourselves as daily express slots are limited. This service is also dependent on you replying by return of email to our digital proof.

• Can you send me samples of the clothing or workwear before I go ahead?
If your not quite sure of what sizes or colours you need, it might be advisable to order samples before placing your embroidery order. You can order clothing samples on our e-commerce site at www.diamondprintexpress.co.uk If you decide you would like to use the samples as part of your embroidery order, just send them back to us and they will be credited to your final invoice.

There are no doubt many other questions, but these are certainly a great place to start!

Chartered Society of Physiotherapists

A recent example of work we undertook to provide a local NHS Trust with embroidered uniform.  They needed a hard wearing polo that would still perform after repeated washes. We chose the Jerzees polo shirt.  They are a 60 degree wash fabric and make an excellent embroidered polo shirt.

Web Design Genius?

Many of our customers have commented on our new look site.  We think it's only right the person who built it should get a mention.

Mark has been responsible for the site development for the last three years.  With just a few taps on his keyboard, he manages to make the most complex tasks look simple!  His latest task is to create a new t-shirt designer that will allow you to add text and images in your web browser and see the results in real time.

Thanks Mark, and keep up the great work!
