Whether you're developing a branded clothing range, upgrading team apparel or looking for a distinctive finish for corporate uniforms, 3D silicone printing offers another way to make your logo stand out.
Contact Kiwi Crew to discuss your custom 3D silicone logo requirements.
3D silicone printing is a heat-transfer branding method that applies a specially produced silicone design to a compatible garment.
The result is a raised logo with a defined shape and tactile finish, creating a different look and feel from conventional flat garment printing.
It is particularly suited to selected branding applications where the appearance and texture of the logo are an important part of the design.
3D silicone printing offers several features that make it appealing for premium apparel branding:
Silicone transfers can offer good resistance to washing and abrasion when correctly specified and applied. Actual durability depends on the transfer construction, garment material, application process and care instructions.
A raised silicone logo can create a distinctive finish on suitable garments.
Potential applications include:
Add a raised logo to selected T-shirts for branded clothing ranges, promotional apparel or team merchandise.
A silicone logo can provide a premium detail on suitable hoodies and sweatshirts, depending on the fabric and garment construction.
For suitable jackets and outerwear, a raised logo can provide an alternative to conventional printing or embroidery.
Silicone branding may suit selected sportswear and performance garments where a modern, raised logo is desired. Garment compatibility should be assessed before production.
Some caps and accessories may be suitable for silicone transfers, depending on their shape, construction and application area.
Not every garment or placement is suitable. We'll assess your intended product and design before confirming the available options.
Both methods can create a premium branded finish, but they look different.
3D silicone printing creates a raised, moulded-looking logo with a smooth or textured silicone surface, depending on the finish.
Embroidery creates a stitched logo using thread, giving the design a traditional textured appearance.
Silicone printing may suit modern apparel and selected sportswear, while embroidery remains a popular option for polo shirts, workwear, jackets and caps.
The best choice depends on your brand style, garment material, logo design and intended application.
Your design can be developed to suit your branding requirements, subject to production capabilities.
Available options may include:
The final design depends on your artwork, the available transfer specifications and the garment's surface. Fine details, small lettering and intricate shapes may need adjustments to achieve a clear, consistent result.
Send us your logo and preferred finish so we can assess what is achievable.
Our standard minimum order for 3D silicone printing is 20 units.
The final price depends on factors such as:
