Errors That Cost You Money
For businesses in Kingston, Surbiton and South West London, understanding common ordering mistakes saves time and money on every workwear order.
Top Mistakes to Avoid
- Wrong file format — sending JPG/PNG instead of vector files causes delays
- Inconsistent sizing — changing logo size between orders breaks brand consistency
- Cheap garments — low-quality base garments shrink, fade, and need replacing
- Wrong method — using printing where embroidery is needed (or vice versa)
- No sample — skipping proof approval leads to unwanted results
- Rush ordering — last-minute orders cost more and risk quality
How to Get It Right
- Always provide vector format logos (.AI, .EPS, .SVG)
- Standardise logo size and placement from the start
- Choose garments based on usage — not just price
- Request a proof or sample before bulk production
Working with an experienced supplier ensures correct placement, sizing, and execution — reducing long-term costs and improving brand consistency.
