Characteristics
Price is per sheet
Embroidery 3D Foam Red – 75D 3mm is a specialty embroidery foam designed to create bold, dimensional lettering, logos, and graphics. Placed directly over the garment before stitching, the foam is covered by dense embroidery stitches to produce a raised 3D or puff effect that adds depth and visual impact to embroidered designs.
With a 3mm thickness and 75-density construction, this foam provides a firm foundation for pronounced dimensional embroidery. The thicker profile helps create a substantial raised appearance, making it an excellent choice for designs where a strong 3D effect is desired.
The red foam color is ideal for embroidery designs using red or similarly colored thread. Matching the foam color closely to the embroidery thread helps minimize the visibility of any small foam remnants that may remain around the edges of the finished design.
3D embroidery foam is especially popular for decorating structured caps and headwear, where raised lettering and logos provide the classic dimensional look commonly found on athletic, team, corporate, and branded merchandise. It can also be used on compatible garments, bags, and other products that can support dense embroidery.
During production, the foam sheet is positioned over the area to be embroidered. The design is then stitched through the foam and garment. Properly digitized satin stitches perforate and encapsulate the foam while securing the dimensional design to the substrate.
After embroidery is complete, excess foam is carefully torn away from around the stitched design. Remaining small pieces can be removed or cleaned from the edges to produce a professional finished appearance.
For best results, embroidery designs should be specifically digitized for 3D foam. Appropriate stitch density, satin stitch width, underlay, pull compensation, and edge-closing techniques help completely cover the foam and create clean, defined dimensional embroidery.
Each sheet measures approximately 11.5" x 18", providing ample material for multiple embroidery designs depending on their size and layout.
