Custom Jacquard Ribbon
We weave names, emblems and borders into a repeat. The pattern can run along a garment seam, or we can space the logos so each cut piece has one complete logo.
Patterns built into the ribbon
- A name can run lengthwise or sit between repeating symbols.
- A pattern can run along one edge as a border or fill the width of the band.
- Cotton, polyester and blended yarns give the trim different textures.
- Plain gaps between emblems leave room to cut or sew.
- Ribbon orders start at 50 meters.
Garment edge or individual badge?
A small pattern can repeat around a garment edge. For a brand tab, we center one emblem between two plain gaps so cutting and sewing leave the mark intact.
Woven borders, logos and lettering
A border can follow a long edge. Spaced logos can sit at the center of each tie or label.
Woven logos and borders
A border can run the length of a seam. Spaced logos leave plain ribbon between marks.
-
Jacquard Ribbon
A continuous geometric detail runs along the ribbon edge. -
Woven Logo Ribbon
A small emblem can repeat at set intervals on bag or garment trim. -
Woven Lettering Ribbon
We can center the letters or move them to leave room for a seam. -
Patterned Jacquard Ribbon
A repeating motif can fill the width or frame a plain central stripe.
Band width and repeat length
Band width sets how tall the woven letters can be after allowing for the sewing edge. Repeat length is measured from the start of one name to the start of the next.
-
Visible band
A plain sewing margin leaves the stripe or wording visible. -
Word length
A long name can run down the band at the intended letter height. -
Repeat origin
Use the same point on each emblem to set the repeat. A plain gap between emblems gives the cutter a place to divide the tabs. -
Cut allowance
Plain ribbon between designs leaves a margin on each cut piece.
Yarn color in the pattern
The weave places each yarn color in the pattern or its background.
-
Contrasting letters
Light and dark yarns help lettering stand out from the background. -
Tonal motifs
Close shades make the pattern more subtle. -
Color bands
Stripes can frame a logo or divide repeated motifs. -
Reverse face
A yarn that forms letters on the front may run across the back between letters. The reverse is visible on a loose tie or turned cuff.
Ways to arrange a woven mark
A woven logo can stand alone, pair with lettering or form part of a continuous patterned edge.
-
Centered logo
One yarn color forms the emblem, another the background. The sides stay plain. -
Name and emblem
A short word can alternate with a small symbol down the band. -
Framed border
Stripes above and below the motif frame the center. -
Seam placement
Moving the motif to one side leaves a plain strip for sewing.
Woven ribbon on the roll
We space the repeats to suit the sewing or packing line.
-
Full repeats
A roll can hold a set number of full, usable repeats. -
Feed direction
Lettering can face the sewing operator as the ribbon feeds into the seam. -
Fixed cuts
A cut length can carry one symbol or several repeats. -
Identification
Yarn color and artwork version can distinguish similar rolls.
Weave and yarn choices
Jacquard can use cotton, polyester or blended yarn. The yarn texture affects the contrast a small logo needs.
Turning artwork into a woven repeat
Each yarn crossing forms part of the artwork. A broad stroke can span several yarns. A small gap inside a letter uses fewer crossings. One repeat includes the design, seam margin and cut position.
A jacquard brand tab
The logo file shows the wordmark. The sewing edge tells us where it can start and end.
