1. Versatile Stick-On Label
Our versatile stick-on labels are our most popular models, and for good reason! Their small rectangular format allows them to adapt to virtually all your labeling needs.
These labels are ideal for families looking for an all-in-one solution to identify not only clothing, but also school supplies, containers, and accessories.
Each sheet contains 56 rectangular labels. Note that all our label shapes can be used on clothing care tags.
Advantages
- Ultra-versatile: Perfect for pencils, notebooks, plastic containers, water bottles, and all personal items going to school or daycare.
- Recommended for clothing: Applies directly to clothing care tags.
- Exceptional durability: Resists washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, and microwave.
- Easy application: No heat required, sticks instantly.
- Compact format: Fits everywhere, even on small objects or small care tags.
Disadvantages
- Only applies to care tags: For clothing, it must be applied to the sewn-in tag (not directly on fabric).
- Less visible: Since it sticks inside the garment, it’s less visible than other options.
2. Iron-On Labels for clothing
Our personalized iron on labels for clothing represent the pinnacle of durability. Applied with an iron, they firmly attach to fabric for exceptional hold.
They’re suitable for families seeking the most durable solution possible, especially for summer camps, sports uniforms, or clothing that will be washed very frequently.
Each sheet contains 40 medium rectangle labels.
Advantages
- Maximum durability: These are our most resistant and durable labels.
- Direct application on fabric: Can be stuck directly on the garment.
- Laundry resistance: Hold firmly wash after wash.
- Suitable for multiple fabric types: Perfect for towels, socks, and clothing without care tags.
Disadvantages
- Requires an iron: Application takes a bit more time and equipment.
- Less quick: Compared to stick-on options, application takes longer.
