CARE LABELS
CARE LABELS
These are a vital component of every garment, providing clear guidance on washing, drying, and general care so customers can maintain their clothing correctly. Whether produced as woven or printed labels, they help extend the lifespan of garments while improving the overall customer experience. At Jointak, we focus on responsible manufacturing by offering woven care labels made from 100% recycled polyester yarns, alongside printed care labels produced using recycled polyester tapes or organic cotton.
Woven Care Labels: Long-Lasting and Sustainable
They are valued for their strength, longevity, and refined appearance. Created by interlacing yarns, these labels remain clear and readable even after repeated laundering, making them well suited to durable garments such as denim, outerwear, and premium apparel.
They are manufactured using 100% recycled polyester yarns. These yarns are derived from post-consumer plastic waste, including used bottles, which are collected, processed, and transformed into new fibres. By choosing recycled polyester, brands can reduce their dependence on virgin resources while helping to minimise plastic waste.
Key Advantages of Recycled Polyester Woven Labels:
- Exceptional Durability: Maintains structure and legibility through frequent washing.
- High-Quality Finish: A woven construction delivers a clean, professional look.
- Lower Environmental Impact: Supports recycling and reduces reliance on new plastic materials.
Printed Labels: Flexible and Eco-Conscious Options
- Offer greater design flexibility and are ideal for garments that require detailed instructions, logos, or branding elements. They are commonly used in casualwear, activewear, and high-volume apparel due to their lightweight feel and efficient production process.
We offer a range of environmentally responsible materials, including:
- Recycled Polyester Tapes: Produced from post-consumer recycled polyester, these tapes offer a more sustainable alternative to conventional polyester labels. Using recycled content helps lower plastic consumption and supports circular manufacturing practices.
- Organic Cotton: For brands seeking a natural fibre option, organic cotton care labels provide an excellent solution. Grown without synthetic pesticides or harmful chemicals, organic cotton is softer on the skin and biodegradable, making it suitable for brands with strong environmental values.
Benefits of Printed Care Labels Using Sustainable Materials:
- Design Versatility: Suitable for detailed text, symbols, and branding.
- Responsible Material Choices: Recycled polyester and organic cotton help reduce environmental impact.
- Customisable Options: Available in a wide range of sizes, colours, and layouts to suit your brand aesthetic.
