What Is Flat Embroidery?
Flat embroidery is a stitching method where designs are sewn directly onto the garment surface using precise needle control and dense thread work.
How It Applies in Apparel Production?
Unlike 3D puff embroidery, flat embroidery sits flush with the fabric, ideal for logos, labels, names, and branding marks.
How We Execute It at Mingxing?
We digitize your artwork for machine compatibility, apply tight-thread stitching using multi-head embroidery machines, and inspect every run in-house.

High-tensile thread is color-matched and loaded into multi-head embroidery machines.
Designs are sewn directly onto the garment surface under tight tension.
Threads are trimmed and stabilizers removed for a clean finish.
We inspect alignment and stitch quality before garment finishing.
