Custom Work

Custom design and manufacturing has been the foundation of our business since we started up in 1985. Our custom work includes sewn products (packs, notebook covers, pouches), embroidery (nametapes, epaulets, patches), and sublimation. Since there are very few manufacturers left in North America, we have been a magnet for industry looking for unique, occupational specific products that are built to ensure the elements. If you have a product idea or project that you would like to get turned into a professional finished product, we'd be happy to discuss it with you.

Custom Embroidery:

No minimum order quantity required. We do offer bulk pricing however, so we'll need to know the quantity you'd like to get back to you with accurate pricing.

We'll work with you every step of the way to make sure your badge is exactly how you envisioned it. Typically, after your order is processed we'll begin digitizing your custom artwork. We can create a sample rendering (using out embroidery software) and email it to you for approval on the layout, colours, etc...

Production time for custom work is approximately 2 weeks following artwork approval.

Interested in a quote? Email marika@cpgear.com for a quote. We'll need to know the desired dimensions of your custom badge, fabric & thread colour, quantity, and type of backing (Velcro or no Velcro). And of course your imagery!

    Custom Sewn Projects:

    Custom design and manufacturing have been the foundation of our business since we started up in 1985. In fact, many of our popular online designs originated from custom designs we had done for past clients. Since there are very few manufacturers left in North America, we have been a magnet for industry looking for unique, occupation specific designs that are built to endure the elements.

    No minimum order - Unlike most manufacturing companies we don’t require a minimum order quantity for custom work. We’re happy to produce just the one custom cover if that’s what you require (* time permitting – please see below). That being said, please keep in mind that producing just one custom cover in our factory would be very time consuming and ultimately not very economical versus doing a larger production run and being much more price effective. Roughly speaking you might be looking at 5 to 6 times the "off the shelf" price on a custom cover. Wholesale pricing usually starts at when we're able to do a production run of 50 units or more in our factory. 

     

    *During certain times of the year our production staff are quite busy working on our product line + producing specialty orders, so availability to take on custom work is time permitting. Please email me at mark@cpgear.com to inquire.


    The process - Typically, customers seeking custom work will have an item in mind that requires a case, bag, or cover to house it and we go from there. Usually the best way to reach out to us is through basic line sketches with rough dimensions and visuals to show us what you have in mind. It's true when they say "a picture is worth a thousand words" when it comes to custom design. Over the last 35 years we've seen it all....well almost! We've "housed" rocks for geologists, explosives for swat teams, mobility devices for home health, electronic devices, etc!

    Just fill email me the details of the desired function and contents of your custom design, along with the quantities required and we'll go from there!
