Fabric label materials

Fabric label materials are used to indicate branding, wash care instructions and traceability information of the textile products they are attached to. Fabric labels differ from traditional paper and synthetic labels and are most commonly made of nylon, satin or polyester material that is specially treated for optimal thermal transfer printing.

What’s your need?

What should be considered to select a Fabric Label Material?

  • The nature of the material: does it need to have a specific look?
    • Each label material provides a different feeling of quality linked to its characteristics which must correspond to the product it is attached to.
  • The constraints associated with the life cycle of the product it is attached to: resistance to washing, ironing, dyeing, tanning, temperature etc.
  • Printability needs: does the label need to be printed on 1 side or on both sides?
  • Compatibility with the ribbon that will be used to print the label.
  • Is OEKO-TEX® certification needed?
  • Cost
