Services

I of the B Holder offers full service custom embroidery, cresting and twill, laser engraving, merrowing, heat press, digitizing and silk screening in the Calgary area.

Your client wants something beautiful for a special occasion, a big event, a celebration, a victory, a company launch – whatever the reason, you want products that reflect the quality of your brand with fine design.

We’re thrilled that you thought of us. And we hope to become partners that last far beyond this first event.

At I of the B Holder, we love our clients and we’re invested in their business success. We consider our work an extension of your business – when we do our best work, we’re helping you showcase your company to the world. We take pride in that responsibility, and we do everything we can to make our designs suit your ambitions.

Below is an extensive list of the products we can decorate, but our skills don’t stop here. We tailor our services to our clients’ needs, and we welcome your biggest challenges. We take on projects from the extremely detailed (fine merrowed crests) to the extremely ambitious (enormous golf cart covers embroidered for a special occasion), and we’re eager to see what you have planned.

What Do We Decorate? A Not-Entirely-Inclusive List

Don’t see your item here? Get in touch, tell us what you have in mind, and we’ll put our expert skills to work to make it happen.

Now that you know what you want decorated, consider the types of decoration available to you. Not every item is ideal for every decoration type, but we’ll make sure you have a great match with our Decoration Consulting, which we provide absolutely free to every client.

Direct Embroidery

We offer full service custom embroidery, and we are experts in its application to all types of material. We use both multi-head and single machines, depending on the project, and we’ll help you make the perfect color match, run samples to check that the design is just what you wanted, and pack your order according to your specifications for your event. We can also digitize your logo to make it embroidery-ready.

Cresting and Twill Logos

Cresting is typically seen on jerseys (and you’ll see our cresting on Calgary teams in every stadium), though twill cresting is also a beautiful high-end look for hoodies. We create and design our crests in-house, either from your specifications or from scratch with our in-house designer.

Crests and Merrowing

Raised crests are a beautiful option for universities, private clubs, and other exclusive organizations that want to honor their members with a beautiful gift. To expertly finish the crests, a Merrow machine is required. Ours does beautiful work, but we’ve also managed to deliver complex crests incompatible with a Merrow machine by applying our expert embroidery skills.

Laser Engraving

Laser engraving is a very precise and versatile technique. We can engrave glass, wood, textiles, sandstone, steel. But we haven’t tried it all yet, please and ask if we can help make your idea become a reality!

Digitizing and Stitch Files

If you have a logo or an idea design that’s available on paper, a brochure, a photo, a hand-drawing, a vector image, or even a snapshot on your iPhone, we can create a digital stitch file from it and replicate that design idea for use in your decorations and products. We’re also happy to advise you on what type of decoration would suit your end product best.

Silkscreening

Does your decorating project have a tight budget? Silk screening is an excellent budget-friendly option if you’re planning a large order. Silk screening can even be more detailed than embroidery, though it is priced by the color layer, rather than the size, which is worth keeping in mind when weighing options.

Heat-Applied Logos and Decals

Have a logo that can’t be silk-screened or embroidered? A heat applied product is an excellent cost-effective option. Personalize or customize your product with a versatile decorating technique. Heat film and decals can be applied to almost every product, with the exception of those that have been chemically treated or waterproofed. This option is ideal for small orders that need fast turnaround times.

Simple Sewing

Need name bars sewn down? We can tackle any of your simple sewing jobs.

Call us anytime to discuss your design needs – we’re here to help you decide on the best options for you and your clients. Once you’ve decided what type of decoration you’d like and what design you’ll use, you’ll take advantage of our unique above-the-call service.
