Why are clothing labels so important?
As we all know, clothing labels are an important part of clothing accessories. They are not just pieces of fabric or tags. They can clearly record brand logos, clothing sizes, ingredient lists, place of origin, manufacturer, care information, etc. Many customers make purchasing decisions based on these labels. Therefore, labels are crucial for product sales. This article also introduces various types of clothing labels from four perspectives.
Classification by Material
Based on material, we can categorize clothing labels into metal labels, leather labels, PVC (rubber, silicone) labels, fabric labels, and TPU labels.
Metal Labels
What types of metal labels are there? Metal labels are used for clothing, hats, bags, and other accessories, and can be engraved with brand logos. There are various types of metal labels, including aluminum, stainless steel, silver, copper, brass, and zinc alloy labels. Metal labels have a wide range of uses and involve processes such as stamping, printing, and laser cutting.
Leather Labels
What types of leather labels are there? Leather labels are made of leather materials and are suitable for clothing such as jackets, denim, hats, and bags. They can be printed, embossed, or have metal labels added using methods such as sewing, ironing, gluing, or using velcro.
PVC (Rubber, Silicone) Labels
What types of PVC labels are there? PVC labels are made of soft PVC rubber material, also known as polyvinyl chloride. They are used as special hang tags and patches for jackets, bags, hats, canvas, and outdoor products. Most PVC labels can highlight brand image by adding company logos or brand names. They can be attached using sewing, velcro, self-adhesive, or soft magnetic backing.
Fabric Labels
What types of fabric labels are there? Fabric labels are made of fabric materials, including woven and printed fabric labels, and are durable and soft. Materials include satin, nylon, taffeta, polyester, tape, ribbon, non-woven fabric, and cotton fabric. They are suitable for T-shirts, jackets, shirts, pants, and children's clothing.
Transparent TPU Labels
What types of TPU labels are there? TPU labels, also known as transparent clothing labels, are thin, flexible labels with logos printed on rubber material. Their main material is thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), making them more environmentally friendly than silicone and PVC.
In addition, we also use silk screen printing, matte finish, sandblasting, and hot stamping to make labels. Most importantly, they exhibit clear, transparent, or semi-transparent effects and are suitable for swimwear and underwear.
TPU Labels
Based on the function of the labels, we categorize them as main labels, care labels, size labels, hang tags, and flag labels.
Main Labels
What are main labels? Main labels are clothing labels that add brand logos and names to fabric through weaving, printing, heat transfer, or leather methods. They are generally placed inside the upper part of the garment, behind the collar, or in the lower part of the garment, at the back seam. Typically, a piece of clothing must have a main label when using labels.
Care Labels
What types of care labels are there? Care labels are clothing washing labels and care symbols that indicate fabric composition, care information, and correct washing methods. Symbols are attached to clothes or textiles, such as washing, dry cleaning, drying, and ironing. Factories or brands typically use washing instructions and print company logos and sizes on the labels.
Size Labels
What are size labels? Size labels are clothing labels that print or weave specific sizes onto garments, such as S, M, L, and XL for clothing, bedding, shoes, and bags. Size labels include printed size labels and woven size labels, using laser cutting or hot cutting. Materials include polyester-cotton blends, satin, and nylon. When shopping, the first thing people do when they pick up a piece of clothing is to check its size to determine if it fits them.
Hang Tags
What types of hang tags are there? Hang tags are clothing tags that print brand logos or product information on paper, plastic, metal, leather, or fabric materials, such as prices, care symbols, contact information, social links or websites, and brand stories. They are also hung on products using strings, cords, metal chains, etc. The cord labels have brief descriptions and designs, and some certificates are hung as hang tags on products.
Flag Labels
What are flag labels? Flag labels are small clothing labels attached to fabric, clothing, bedding, and other outer surfaces. They usually print or weave a brand logo or company name to indicate ownership. Therefore, we can create labels as brand labels or name labels to showcase the brand image.
Classification by Sewing Method
Based on the sewing method of the labels, we categorize them as iron-on labels, heat transfer labels, sewing labels, metal labels, rivet labels, and bendable leg labels, among others.
Iron-On Labels
What are iron-on labels? Iron-on labels are made of hot-melt adhesive backing and are ironed onto fabric after peeling, resulting in perfect iron-on labels with waterproof, durable, and skin-friendly effects. They are suitable for T-shirts, shirts, T-shirts, trousers, pants, uniforms, and can be printed with personalized brand logos and names, contact information, website, or care symbols.
Heat Transfer Labels
What types of heat transfer labels are there? Heat transfer labels are the main labels of clothing that heat-press logos or patterns onto special transfer paper, synthetic film, or plastic film, which are then peeled off and applied to the fabric of the clothes. They are also known as tagless labels or heat transfer labels, and are suitable for T-shirts.
Sewing Labels
What types of sewing labels are there? Sewing labels are clothing labels used on any fabric with a sewing machine, leaving edges that can be sewn or holes. Any label that can be sewn belongs to sewing labels, such as woven labels, printed labels, leather, fabric, PVC, or metal labels.
PVC Sewing Labels
Metal Labels with Rivets and Bendable Legs
Two main methods are used to attach metal labels and tags: by riveting or using bendable legs. When customizing metal labels, customers usually choose one of these methods to easily attach the labels to clothing, hats, bags, etc.
Woven Labels
Woven labels are a type of clothing label created by overlapping threads to form a design, made of fabrics such as satin, polyester, taffeta, cotton, etc. There are many types of labels, such as cotton woven labels, fabric edge woven labels, satin woven labels, printed woven labels, woven labels with hooks, embossed woven labels, etc.
Printed Labels
Printed labels are used to print logos, product information, company names, contact information, or website links inside clothing labels to enhance brand image. Materials include TPU, ribbons, cotton, satin, nylon, polyester, taffeta, canvas, tape, and leather. There are many types, such as care or washing labels, size labels, etc.
Embossed Leather Labels
Embossed leather labels are generally used on the back waist of jeans, as well as on bags, handbags, and shoes. The labels are usually made using hot pressing (high-temperature ironing), as well as voltage (high frequency), silk printing, laser, sewing, embroidery, hardware, etc. The materials include top grain leather, split leather, microfiber leather, artificial leather (PU, PVC), and synthetic leather. The labels can be attached to items by adding 3M glue, velcro, punching, perforating, etc., and are suitable for clothing, home goods, etc.
Cast Metal and PVC Labels
Metal labels and some PVC labels are often made using stamping, die-casting processes, which provide durable and smooth surface finishes. Diamond inlays, painting, punching, and drip sealing can be done to ensure that each product does not oxidize or fade.
Embroidered Labels
What types of embroidered labels are there? Embroidered labels are clothing designs created using overlapping threads, including flat, 3D, terry, sequin, fabric, brush, hand-beaded, and mixed embroidered labels.
