§ 01 — The Barudan story

Decades of Japanese precision

A Japanese manufacturer of industrial embroidery machinery

Barudan is one of Japan's established names in industrial embroidery machinery, with a long history of building high-speed, computerised multi-needle machines. Over the decades the brand has earned a clear reputation: built to run reliably, and built to be serviced and kept running for years.

Trusted worldwide — serviced locally

Barudan machines are in production around the world, from boutique personalisation studios to high-volume cap and uniform factories. Al Borj has supplied and supported embroidery and garment equipment across the Middle East and Africa since our founding in Sharjah in 1987 — meaning when you invest in a Barudan, you also get a local team who know the equipment, hold key spare parts, and can be on-site without shipping delays.

§ 02 — Why Barudan

Why production floors choose Barudan

Japanese engineering heritage
Barudan is a long-established Japanese embroidery machine maker, and its models are known for the precision tolerances and build quality Japanese manufacturing is recognised for.
High-speed, accurate stitching
Servo-driven heads hold stitch accuracy at full production pace — so there is no compromise between speed and quality on dense fill or tight lettering.
Positive needle drive
Barudan's positive needle-drive design helps maintain needle registration on heavy fabrics and thick stacks — where lesser machines can skip or deflect.
Flat goods and caps, one machine
The cylinder arm transitions between flat-goods frames and cap drivers — helping you move between headwear and flat goods without a separate machine.
Built to be supported for years
Barudan machines are designed for long service life, backed by a mature parts ecosystem that keeps equipment running for many years.
Al Borj local support
Installation, operator training, spare-parts stocking and annual maintenance contracts — all delivered in the UAE and GCC without freight wait times.

Questions, answered

Barudan embroidery machines: common questions

Which Barudan machine is right for a uniform or workwear operation?

For higher volumes, a multi-head BEXS machine such as the BEXS-Y918 is the production workhorse, while a single-head BEKT is a versatile choice for sampling, caps and short runs. Both handle the dense fills and tight lettering typical of uniform embroidery, with multiple needles per head so colour changes are fast. Al Borj will review your stitch counts, garment types and shift hours to recommend the right head count and configuration for your UAE or GCC operation.

What is positive needle drive and why does it matter?

Positive needle drive is a Barudan design that actively controls needle positioning through the stitch cycle, rather than relying on spring or cam return. On thick materials, towelling, or multi-layer work where standard machines can deflect and produce uneven stitching, it helps keep registration consistent. Al Borj can advise which models in the range offer it for your application.

Where can I buy and service a Barudan machine in the UAE?

Al Borj is your authorised Barudan supply and service partner across the UAE, GCC and wider Middle East and Africa region — operating from Sharjah since 1987. We supply new machines, hold key spare parts locally, deliver installation and operator training, and offer annual maintenance contracts so your production floor is never waiting on an overseas parts shipment.

Can Barudan machines embroider caps as well as flat goods?

Yes. Barudan's cylinder arm design lets machines switch between flat-goods frames and cap drivers on the same head. The BEKS cap series is purpose-built for high-volume cap production, while the BEXS multi-head and BEKT single-head machines handle both product types in a single setup. Al Borj can demonstrate cap and flat-goods changeover at our Sharjah showroom.
