2. Size – the larger the badge, the more it will cost; the greater the amount of embroidered area, the more it will cost. 3. The number of thread colours in the design. More than seven thread colours, or use of metallic threads will increase cost. How is the size determined? The size for pricing is expressed in millimetres as half the sum of the height and the width - e.g. if the badge is 60mm high and100mm wide the calculation would be (60+100)/2=80. Thus the size for pricing would be 80mm.  What is the production time? Normally you should allow up to 2 to 3 weeks from the time you have signed off on the final artwork and have placed a firm order. However, if you have a tighter deadline, please let your ACTION BADGES account representative know and we will advise if we are able to meet your required delivery date.
