Patch Types We Make

Whatever your uniform or brand needs, we manufacture it to your artwork and import it for you (supplied across South Africa and Africa):

  • Embroidered patches — classic stitched patches with a raised, textured finish, sew-on, iron-on or velcro backed. Hard-wearing and traditional for uniforms and caps. See our dedicated embroidered patches page →
  • PVC / rubber patches — soft moulded 3D patches, fully waterproof and extremely durable, ideal for tactical, outdoor and security gear.
  • Woven patches — flat, fine-detail patches that reproduce small text and intricate logos more crisply than embroidery.
  • TPU patches — screen-printed high-frequency patches with sharp, full-colour detail and a smart raised finish. A discreet weight can be moulded into the back so the patch sits flat and correctly on the uniform.
  • PU & silicone patches — leather-look PU and heat-pressed silicone options for premium branding and sportswear.
  • Woven & embroidered keychains — matching keychains produced under the same order.

Attachment & Backing Options

  • Iron-on (heat-seal): heat-activated adhesive backing for a fast, permanent bond — the standard choice for uniforms.
  • Sew-on: plain backing with a stitched border for the most secure, long-life attachment.
  • Velcro (hook & loop): removable, swappable patches for tactical vests, caps and shoulder boards.
  • Adhesive / peel-and-stick: self-adhesive backing for quick application where sewing is not practical.

Built for Uniforms & Bulk Contracts

  • Uniform-ready: regulation shoulder, chest and cap patches produced to your exact size, shape and colours.
  • Tender & bulk quantities: set up for large government, police, military and security uniform contracts, as well as smaller custom runs.
  • Consistent repeat runs: your approved artwork and sample are kept on file, so a repeat order matches the first one exactly.
  • One delivered price: product, freight, duties and customs clearance all folded into a single door-to-door quote.

Your Branding & Design Service

  • Any artwork: send a logo, badge, sketch or existing patch and our designers draw it up for production.
  • Proof before production: you approve a digital proof, and then a physical sample, before any bulk run.
  • Colour matching: full-colour work matched to your regulation or brand Pantone shades.
  • Custom packaging: individually bagged, carded or bulk-boxed and labelled to your requirement.

Quality & Finish

Every patch is produced from durable, colourfast materials built to survive daily wear and repeated washing without fading, peeling or fraying. Borders are cleanly cut or over-locked, iron-on and velcro backings are applied evenly, and every bulk run is inspected against the sample you approved before it is packed and shipped. Storm media manages the supplier, quality control, shipping and customs on your behalf, so you deal with one point of contact and one delivered price.

Suitable For

  • Military & Defence

Pricing & Delivery
Custom Patches (All Types)
Quote on Request
We offer full bulk manufacturing of patches to your own artwork, and we are set up for large government, police, military and security uniform contracts as well as smaller custom runs. Every order is quoted per design. Your price depends on the patch type (embroidered, PVC, woven, TPU, PU or silicone), the size, number of colours, backing and how many you need — and the more you order, the lower the price per patch.

Sample first: before any bulk run we produce a digital proof and a physical sample, so you can see and feel exactly what you are getting and approve it before we go ahead.

Then bulk: once you approve the sample, bulk production runs (about 20–25 working days) and your patches are shipped by air freight (about 10–12 working days) or by sea, delivered door to door and customs cleared, anywhere in South Africa and across Africa. We give you the full delivered price and lead time up front, with no supplier hunting and no surprises at customs.

Send us your logo, badge or existing patch, the type and size you want, your colours and rough quantity, and we will come back with a full delivered quote.

Notes
We manufacture in bulk to your approved artwork and sample. Minimum order quantities are set per patch type and are low for custom work, and per-patch pricing drops as quantities rise. Production runs about 20–25 working days; air freight adds about 10–12 working days, with sea freight available for larger orders. Final lead time and delivered price are confirmed with your quote and depend on the patch type, size, quantity and chosen freight method.
Terms & Conditions
Estimated lead times are indicative only. As an import order, Storm media is not responsible for delays caused by production, freight, customs or any party outside our control, and late delivery does not entitle the buyer to cancellation or compensation. Import orders are placed to order, so deposits and payments are non-refundable and orders cannot be cancelled once placed. Custom products are made to your approved sample and artwork. While every effort is made to ensure accuracy, Storm media accepts no liability for typographical errors, pricing errors or specification changes by the manufacturer. Prices are subject to the exchange rate at the time of invoice.
