Custom Woven & Printed Fabric Labels UK

Custom Woven Clothing Labels
Custom woven and printed fabric labels help UK clothing brands, manufacturers and independent designers create professional, durable product branding. Choose from woven clothing labels, printed satin care labels and personalised cotton labels, with custom designs, quality materials and options to suit different garments and textile products.
Custom Woven Labels for Clothing & Branding
Woven labels are made by weaving coloured threads together to create logos, text and branding directly into the fabric. This produces a durable, professional label that maintains its appearance through regular use and washing.
Custom woven labels are suitable for:
- Clothing brands and fashion designers
- Garment manufacturers and uniforms
- Handmade clothing and accessories
- Bags, textiles and promotional products
Woven labels offer excellent durability and clear branding, making them a popular choice for premium clothing labels. For intricate artwork, colour gradients or photographic designs, printed fabric labels may provide greater detail.
Printed Satin Labels & Custom Care Labels
Printed satin labels feature a smooth, soft finish, making them suitable for garments where comfort and clear printed information are important. They are widely used for clothing labels, lingerie, babywear, bedding and luxury textiles.

Printed Satin Labels
Printed satin labels can include:
- Brand logos and company names
- Washing and care instructions
- Clothing sizes and product details
- Washing symbols and other garment information
With production available in approximately 5 – 6 working days, printed satin labels are suitable for businesses requiring a short turnaround, subject to order specifications and confirmation.
Available printed label materials include:
| Material | Common applications |
| Polyester satin | Clothing, lingerie and care labels |
| Coated cotton | Garments and textile products |
| Taffeta | Garment identification and care labels |

Printed Cotton Labels for Sustainable & Handmade Products
Printed cotton labels offer a natural appearance and distinctive texture for clothing brands, handmade products and businesses seeking a cotton-based branding option.
Made from 100% natural cotton, these labels can be customised with logos, brand names, care information and product details using hand screen-printing techniques.
Cotton label options include:
- Herringbone cotton – a textured finish for clothing and accessories.
- Twill cotton – a structured material for branded garments.
- Lightweight cotton – suitable for lighter textile products.
- Heavyweight cotton – a substantial finish for bags and accessories.
- Soft cotton – for products requiring a softer label material.
- Canvas cotton – a durable option for textile accessories.
Cotton labels provide a natural material choice, although their environmental impact depends on the complete manufacturing process, inks and other materials used.
Woven vs Printed Fabric Labels: Which Should You Choose?
The right custom fabric label depends on your artwork, material preference, intended use and branding requirements.
| Feature | Woven labels | Printed fabric labels |
| Production method | Coloured threads woven into fabric | Ink printed onto fabric |
| Best suited for | Logos, text and long-lasting branding | Detailed graphics, care instructions and fine text |
| Common materials | Woven polyester and other label yarns | Satin, cotton, taffeta and nylon |
| Typical applications | Clothing brands, uniforms and accessories | Care labels, babywear and product information |
For a traditional, durable clothing brand label, woven labels are a suitable option. For detailed care instructions, softer finishes or complex printed designs, printed fabric labels offer greater flexibility.
Why Use Custom Fabric Labels for Your Products?
A professionally designed fabric label does more than display a brand name. It provides product identification and helps customers recognise your business.
Key benefits include:
- Brand recognition: Make your clothing and textile products identifiable.
- Professional presentation: Add a consistent, finished appearance to garments.
- Product information: Display relevant care instructions, sizing and fibre content.
- Customer confidence: Provide clear and useful information about your products.
- Long-lasting identification: Select materials appropriate for regular wear and washing.
For UK clothing businesses, garment labels should also be designed to meet applicable textile fibre composition and consumer information requirements. The specific information required depends on the product and where it is sold.

Frequently Asked Question
What is the difference between woven and printed fabric labels?
Woven fabric labels have their designs created using coloured threads woven directly into the material, making them suitable for durable clothing branding. Printed fabric labels apply ink to a fabric surface, allowing detailed logos, care instructions and fine text to be reproduced on materials such as satin and cotton. The right option depends on your design, garment type and intended use.
