Premium Genuine & Synthetic Leather Branding Solutions
At High Rated Patch, we specialize in the engineering of custom leather patches that offer a timeless, high-end aesthetic for premium apparel, headwear, and denim. Whether utilizing top-grain genuine leather for an authentic, rugged feel or premium vegan leather (Faux/Suede) for consistency and sustainability, our patches are built to withstand the rigors of industrial laundering while developing a unique patina over time. We utilize precision-cutting technology to ensure every patch features perfectly uniform edges, providing a sophisticated branding element that elevates the perceived value of any product.
Laser Engraving
Laser engraving is a high-precision subtractive manufacturing process. We utilize a CO2 laser system to cauterize the top layer of the leather, creating a permanent, recessed design. This method is ideal for intricate logos and fine text, as the laser can achieve micro-precision that mechanical tools cannot. The result is a high-contrast, "burnt-in" look where the design is physically etched into the material, ensuring it will never fade or peel, regardless of wear.
Heat Embossing & Debossing
For a classic 3D tactile experience, we utilize heavy-duty hydraulic heat presses and custom-machined metal dies. Debossing presses your logo into the leather, creating a deep, elegant recessed effect, while Embossing raises the design above the leather surface. By applying controlled heat and tons of pressure, we permanently alter the leather's fiber structure, resulting in a prestigious, dimensionally rich finish that catches light and emphasizes the natural grain.
UV Digital Printing
When your brand requires full-color complexity or specific gradients on a leather substrate, we utilize Industrial UV (Ultraviolet) Printing. Unlike standard ink, our UV-cured inks are instantly polymerized by ultraviolet light, creating a durable, flexible bond with the leather. This allows for high-resolution, photographic-quality imagery and exact Pantone® color matching while maintaining the rugged durability required for outdoor and workwear applications.
