About Us
The Orignal Hoodie Company a family run business started as a small screen printing company, mainly printing t-shirts and hi visibility.
Working hard on the sales and picking up new customers daily within the first year of trading in 2002 the company decided to invest in its first automated embroidery machine to help cover all aspects of personalisation for the workwear and personalised clothing market.
To cope with demand in 2016, with the growth of cotton bags and promotional clothing the company invested in a fully automatic screen printing press, allowing us to print up to 600 pieces per hour.
Growing year on year we is now a national supplier, we now have 24 sewing heads on the latest state of the art machinery allowing us to embroider up to 15 colours to the highest possible quality.

Embroidery is the technique of stitching a design, normally a logo or company name onto clothing, which is produced on our state of the art automated machinery.
We offer a bespoke embroidery service, ideal for embroidered workwear, uniforms, corporate and promotional clothing. Embroidery looks smart, professional and is extremely hard wearing.
When you supply your logo, we use specialist software to convert and optimise the image into an embroidery design.
All logos are proofed prior to production. This design proof shows how the logo will look when it is embroidered and will be sent to you for approval.

Printing gives a clean look with sharp detail and a modern appearence. We offer 4 printing methods to suit both the best quality reproduction of your logo and value for money on quantity required.
