Embroidery Double Sided Tape is a special double-sided tape designed for garment embroidery. The core difference between it and ordinary double-sided tape is that its Initial Tack (adhesive force when first attached) and Holding Power (the ability to hold without falling off for a long time) are stronger.
In the process of computerized embroidery, it acts like "glue" to temporarily fix the fabrics to be embroidered (such as cut pieces, fabrics) together. This prevents the fabrics from being displaced, wrinkled or deformed due to the high speed of the machine during embroidery, thereby ensuring the accuracy and perfection of the embroidery pattern.
The core application scenario of Embroidery Double Sided Tape is computerized embroidery, including:
(1) Garment Embroidery: This is the primary application. It is used to fix fabrics and linings when embroidering trademarks, logos, or decorative patterns on garments such as T-shirts, Polo Shirts, Jeans, and Jackets.
(2) Shoes and Bags: When embroidering items such as Sneakers, Hats, and Backpacks, Embroidery Double-sided Tape is also needed to fix thick or multi-layer composite materials.
(3) Home Textiles: It is also used to ensure the stability of embroidery on home textile products such as Sofa Cushions, Curtains and Towels.
(4) Leather Products: When embroidering on leather materials, since leather itself is smooth and expensive, and cannot be modified once embroidered incorrectly, it is particularly important to use double-sided tape for fixation.
Oil-based Embroidery Tape: It has more stable quality and strong adhesive strength, and is not easy to leave residual adhesive on fabrics. It is the first choice for high-quality embroidery work, but the cost is relatively high.
Hot-melt Embroidery Tape: It is relatively cheap, but its adhesion may be slightly inferior to that of oil-based tape, and there may be residual adhesive when operated repeatedly or on specific fabrics.
The most common colors are Yellow and White. When choosing, consider whether the tape color will show through the fabric and affect the appearance of the finished product. Light-colored fabrics usually use White Tape, while dark-colored fabrics are less sensitive to color.
Check whether the tape has cracks or uneven edges. Cracked or rough edges may cause the tape to tear or stick improperly during use, affecting embroidery quality.
The Substrate (such as Cotton Paper, Non-woven Fabric, etc.) will affect the flexibility and strength of the tape. The appropriate substrate should be selected according to the thickness and elasticity of the fabric. At the same time, the width and thickness should be selected according to the size of the embroidery pattern.
Usage Advice: Before large-scale use, be sure to test with small pieces of tape on the edge of the garment or in inconspicuous places to confirm its adhesion, residue and impact on the fabric.

| Product Name | Embroidery Double-sided Tape |
| Product Definition | A high-adhesion double-sided tape specially designed for the garment embroidery process, used for temporarily fixing fabrics during embroidery. |
| Core Features | 1. High Initial Tack: Quick adhesion to prevent fabric movement.2. Strong Holding Power: Can maintain adhesion and stick firmly even when the machine is running at high speed.3. Specialized Substrates: Commonly use flexible substrates such as cotton paper, which can adapt to the bending and stretching of fabrics. |
| Main Categories | 1. By Color: Yellow Double-sided Tape, White Double-sided Tape.2. By Adhesive Property: Oil-based Tape (stable quality, less residual adhesive) and Hot-melt Tape (low cost). |
| Core Functions | Prevent fabrics (such as cut pieces, linings) from shifting, wrinkling or deforming during computerized embroidery. |
| Major Advantages | 1. Quality Assurance: Ensure the embroidery pattern is precise and non-deformable.2. Improve Efficiency: Easy to operate, much faster than manual fixation, improving production efficiency.3. Wide Applicability: Suitable for various fabrics and materials such as leather. |
| Key Scenarios | 1. Embroidery of trademarks and patterns on garments (T-shirts, Jeans, Coats, etc.).2. Embroidery decoration on Shoes, Hats and Bags.3. Embroidery on Home Textiles (such as Curtains and Towels). |
| Selection Key Points | 1. Based on Fabric: White Tape is preferred for light-colored fabrics; select according to the thickness and elasticity of the fabric.2. Based on Demand: Choose Oil-based Tape for high quality pursuit, and Hot-melt Tape for cost control.3. Check Appearance: Select products without cracks and rough edges. |
| Usage Tips | Before use, be sure to conduct a small-area test in an inconspicuous place to confirm adhesion and whether there is residual adhesive. |
Strong Fixation and Anti-displacement: Its core advantage is to provide strong temporary adhesion, which completely solves the core problem of fabric sliding and wrinkling during embroidery, and ensures that the pattern does not deform.
Improve Production Efficiency: Compared with manual positioning or the use of pins, the use of double-sided tape is very fast and simple, which can significantly improve the efficiency of the embroidery process.
Easy and Flexible Operation: Just tear off the release paper, stick the tape to the position to be fixed, and then attach another layer of fabric. It is very suitable for industrial assembly line operations and also convenient for individual manual hobbyists to use.
Fabric-specific Design: Designed for the characteristics of textiles, it has better adaptability to most fabrics than ordinary tape, and also takes into account the protection of embroidery machines and needles.
Keep Workpieces Flat: It can evenly adhere the fabric to the lining to form a flat working surface, making the final embroidery effect more flat and beautiful.
