PVC Patches for the Military: Make Your Military Unit Gear Last

Military gear has come a long way in recent times, and one of the greatest new innovations is PVC patches.

Soft PVC patches (some people refer to them as Rubber or Silicone Patches), are made of Polyvinyl chloride, and have tremendous benefits over other cloth or woven patches.

You want your military gear to work for you, and generally speaking this type of gear takes much more of a beating than regular gear. It’s important to have something that stands the test of time. Soft Rubber PVC is incredibly durable and tough, and can go through many situations and come out on the other side looking almost new. Rain, dry heat, cold – all of these and more are things that Soft PVC can withstand.

Woven or embroidered patches have been the standard for many years, but PVC military patches have some added benefits besides their durability. For example, they are able to have much more detailed designs on them. That means that if you have a detailed logo or design, it translates very well to the PVC material and you won’t lose any detail when the patches are made.

Soft PVC can be used in patches for military gear, bringing a great benefit for our US Army, US Air force, US Navy or US Marine Corps, helping to identify both persons and accessories. Obviously, they are perfect for identification, but they are also a great way to show off the unit with specialized detail in the design that can be clearly seen and identified.

Why Military Unit PVC Patches?

They will not fade or fray over time, unlike their woven or cloth counterparts. Whether you are slogging through mud or getting sprayed by desert sand, they will remain clearly legible and identifiable. It will be a long time before you have to replace them.
For certain special units, it is important that patches can be removed to prevent identification. This is another benefit of Soft PVC being used for military gear (as military unit patches), they can have a Velcro backing, making them easy to remove and replace when there are certain situation that make identification inadvisable.

Another handy feature of a removable Soft PVC patch is that it can be swapped out for other patch very easily without sacrificing the garment or item. There may be situations where one patch is required, and then with the easy Velcro removal they can be switched out for an alternate patch should the situation call for it.

It also adds ease to washing or cleaning the garment. Just remove the patch, wash, and return the patch to its spot after the garment or item has dried.

Summarizing, having your military unit patches made out of Soft PVC makes them a wonderful product for military gear. They are sturdy, long-lasting, and able to display intricate detail and design, while at the same time preserving anonymity in their ease of removal. Able to withstand the elements, they are both practical and useful.
