What is a "Logo Placement Group"?

We use four different placement groups to determine where a logo will fit on a garment
1.Small. The maximum size of the logo is 1”x3” wide. Small logos are the most versatile. They can go in placements 9, 11, 12, 21, 25, 26, 53 and 54. On long sleeve shirt cuffs, just above the shirt cuff, the nape of the neck, or on the sides and back of a cap.

2.Standard. The maximum size of the logo is 3”x 4” wide. Standard logos are usually used for shirt front logos and upper sleeve embroidery or on the front of a tote or soft sided briefcase.

3.Full. The maximum size of the logo is 10” x 12” wide. A full logo is placed on the full center of the front or back of a shirt. It is a large embellishment location meant to create the focal point of the garment.

4.Cap Front. The maximum size of the logo is 2.5” x 3.5” wide. Cap front logos are used on baseball or similarly styled caps. They indicate that the cap is made in such a way as to preclude any additional embellishment beyond the front of the cap above the bill.

What is a logo?

G&K Services offers various embellishment options to help you advertise your company or brand, identify your employees, and enhance your image in your workplace - and with your customer - depending on your needs. We offer the following embellishment options—

Custom Embroidery — G&K Services can produce a unique embroidered logo from the artwork you provide using a digitization process. Your design file is then used to create your unique embroidered logo on the garments you select. The actual decoration process consists of needlework created using a special machine that is programmed to stitch your design combining texture, pattern, and color. If you do not have a logo, follow the four easy steps below in What is the Custom Logo Process? to get started.

Standard Embroidery — If you don’t have artwork or a unique custom logo, you can use our standard embroidery capabilities. We will embroider your company name - or employee name - in one thread color on the garments you choose using the same process as noted under custom embroidery.

Screen Printing — We are excited to introduce a new way to customize your company apparel with our new screen print programs. Screen printing is a printing technique that squeezes ink through woven mesh screens allowing color to pass through open areas to create a design. Multi-colored designs are achieved using one screen for each color in the design. Select from our all-in-one tee shirt with screen print program or apply screen print to any number of products throughout our catalog. Call our Customer Care Representatives at 1-877-352-8181 for more information on this exciting new program from GK IS Direct™.
