Fabric Labels
Woven and printed fabric labels — brand labels, co-branded labels, and compliance washcare labels in satin, cotton, or taffeta.
Fabric labels are the final detail that elevates a product from generic to branded. From the label a customer finds inside a garment to the washcare tag required by law, every label communicates quality, origin, and care — and gives you another touchpoint to express your brand identity.
Label Style Options
Co-Branded Labels
Produced at no additional cost on eligible orders. Carry both your brand mark and the Work+Shelter logo. Our team provides standard templates and design support to ensure the layout is clean and professional.
Branded Labels
Standalone labels showing only your brand. Standard production lead times apply. Suitable for brands that prefer to keep supplier branding off the finished product.
Washcare Labels
Taffeta compliance labels showing fabric content, country of origin, and care instructions (wash symbols). Some orders include QR codes linking to extended product information. These meet standard textile labeling requirements for most markets — check your local regulatory requirements for export.
