What we produce and options

  • Embroidered patches (primary option) — durable, textured, built to withstand outdoor use and washing
  • Printed patches with embroidered border — for complex artwork, gradients, or photographic detail
  • Sew-on backing (traditional, long-lasting — standard for scout uniforms and sashes)
  • Iron-on backing (faster application for camp blankets, backpacks, and kit bags)
  • Hook and loop backing for removable patches on outdoor gear and tactical vests
  • Round, shield, custom contour, and standard rectangular shapes
  • Custom thread colours matched to your group’s palette

What scout and outdoor groups value most

  • Exactly what we needed

    We ordered annual group patches for our troop — every member got one at the start of the season. We needed a specific shade of green, and we actually got it. The quality held up through camps and washes.

Best ordering window for scout groups

Most groups place annual uniform or identity patch orders in spring (April–May) so patches are ready for the summer camp season.
Camp and event patches are typically ordered 3–5 weeks before the event to allow production and delivery time.

Early orders before summer camp season receive priority scheduling and better per-patch pricing.

Pricing structure

Pricing is based on quantity, patch size, and stitch complexity. A one-time digitising fee applies to the first order. The approved design is stored.

  • 10–50 pcs (small troop or event patch)
  • 51–199 pcs (group seasonal order)
  • 200+ pcs (district, county, or large event)
  • Annual repeat orders
Groups keep a consistent patch process year after year — without re-inventing each time.

Service area

We ship across the European Union — including Ireland, Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Finland. Orders are produced in EU and shipped with tracking. International orders outside the EU are handled on a case-by-case basis.

What is the minimum order quantity for scout patches?

We accept orders from 10 pieces per design. For annual group identity patches, most troops order 50–150 pcs. Camp and event patches are often ordered in smaller runs of 25–50 pcs per design.

What artwork or logo files are needed?

Any format works — vector files are ideal but not required. We have worked with hand sketches, photos of existing badges, and rough brief descriptions. We will advise if any adjustments are needed for embroidery production. AI created images are also fine.

Are the patches durable enough for outdoor and camp use?

Yes. Embroidered patches are produced on stable base fabric, not felt, with a laser-cut border for durability. They withstand repeated washing and regular outdoor wear. Sew-on backing is the most durable option for scout uniform shirts and sashes.

Do you ship to Ireland and across the EU?

Yes. All patches are produced in Finland (EU) and shipped across the European Union, including Ireland, with tracking. No customs complications for EU orders.

Can we order both embroidered and printed patches?

Yes. Embroidered patches are the primary option — durable, textured, and ideal for most scout badge designs. For designs with fine photographic detail, gradients, or many colour tones, we can produce printed patches with an embroidered border for a professional finish.

How long does production and delivery take?

Typical production time is 1–2 weeks after design approval. Shipping to Ireland and EU countries usually takes 3–7 business days. For large events or camps, we recommend ordering at least 3–5 weeks in advance.
