6/7/2017 – I have been buying patch material from [*******] for years, but someone on facebook recommended you. Please explain to me . . .
Response From Enmart:
Yes, that's precisely what we mean by laminated. Our parent company is Ensign Emblem, and we are one of just a handful of companies that make the patches for the rental uniform and laundry industry in the U.S., and probably the only one that makes almost everything IN the U.S. from U.S. products.
So, all the blank patches and laminated blank patch fabric are exactly the same stuff we make for commercial customers. They have to be tough to hold up in those harsh conditions too, and typically our patches will outlast the garments.
But back to the "laminated" part - basically, the laminated fabric is 4 layers made up of 3 different materials including fabric, the laminate, and a reinforcing material. The laminate is high melt only - you can't use an iron unless maybe you can get one to go up to 400 degrees, but the patches are designed to be put on with a heat press (or sewn on).
If you want to read more about the process of our blank patches (and laminated patch material) this link will give you more info.
