Yes. You are welcome to bring your own lab coat, scrubs, jacket, polo shirt, or other apparel for embroidery. We can also order medical apparel for you through our suppliers. Whether you provide the garment or we supply it, we can add custom logos, names, credentials, and department information. No minimum quantities and no charge for mock-ups.

While damage during embroidery is rare, embroidery involves needles, thread, and machinery. If GTL Threads provides the garment and it is damaged during production, we will replace the garment at our expense and complete the order as agreed. If a customer supplies their own garment, GTL Threads is not responsible for replacing the item in the event of accidental damage during the embroidery process. By providing your own apparel, you acknowledge the inherent risks associated with embroidery production. We take every precaution to protect customer-supplied garments and treat them with the utmost care.

We can do either. We can order lab coats, scrubs, jackets, and other medical apparel for you, or you can bring your own garments for embroidery.

Yes. GTL Threads reserves the right to decline artwork that is inappropriate, offensive, defamatory, discriminatory, harassing, or otherwise inconsistent with our company standards. We strive to provide professional embroidery services and reserve the right to refuse designs that we believe may be harmful, unlawful, or unsuitable for production.

We accept most common file formats, including JPG, PNG, PDF, AI, EPS, and SVG. If the original logo file is unavailable, don't worry. We can often recreate a clean, embroidery-ready logo from a website image, printed material, business card, or phone screenshot. Just send us the best image you have, and we'll take it from there.

Yes. We provide complimentary mock-ups for customers who are considering an order with GTL Threads. Mock-ups are created to help you review and approve your design before production begins. We reserve the right to decline mock-up requests that are not connected to a genuine purchase inquiry.

We do our best to match colors as closely as possible. Exact color matching is not always possible because embroidery thread is manufactured in specific color ranges and can appear different depending on fabric, lighting, and viewing conditions. For customers who require a close color match, we use professional thread color charts and industry color reference systems to select the closest available thread. If you have a specific brand color, logo color, or Pantone® color reference, please provide it and we will work to achieve the most accurate match possible. If color accuracy is especially important, we can discuss thread options and provide a mock-up before production.

Yes. A high-quality logo file is always appreciated, but it is not always required. In many cases, we can recreate a logo from a website, business card, photo, or even a cellphone screenshot. If a coworker has the logo on their lab coat or scrub top, a clear photo or screenshot is often enough for us to work from. The better the image quality, the more accurately we can reproduce the design. If you're unsure whether your logo file is usable, send us what you have and we'll take a look.

Yes. Once your logo has been digitized, we keep the embroidery file on record for future orders, helping ensure consistent results and faster reorders. Customer logos and information are kept confidential and are never sold, shared, or provided to other customers. Files are maintained only for future embroidery and reorder purposes.
