Washable Printed Ribbon Labels for Clothing & Handmade Products

Create custom washable ribbon labels for clothing, handmade garments, soft toys and textile products. Your logo, brand name, care information, washing instructions or simple design is printed using a specialist washable single-colour ink.

These labels are ideal for clothing brands, independent makers, sewing businesses and creators of handmade products who need a branded ribbon label designed to withstand normal washing.


Washable Ribbon Labels – Manufacturer-Tested to 40°C

Our washable printed ribbon labels are produced using ribbon and specialist printing inks that have been manufacturer-tested for washing at temperatures up to 40°C.

The specialist washable printing system is specifically intended for clothing and textile applications where the finished ribbon label needs to remain suitable for regular washing.

Because these labels use specialist washable inks, the available print-colour range is smaller than our standard personalised ribbon range. Simply choose from the washable print colours shown when ordering.

Choose 15mm, 25mm, 38mm or 48mm Ribbon

Your clothing label doesn't have to be one standard size. Choose from 15mm, 25mm, 38mm or 48mm wide ribbon, depending on the size of your design, the amount of information you need to include and the product the label will be sewn into.

  • 15mm ribbon labels – ideal for simple branding, names and compact designs.
  • 25mm ribbon labels – provides more room for logos, wording and basic care information.
  • 38mm ribbon labels – suitable for larger branding and designs containing additional information.
  • 48mm ribbon labels – our widest option, providing greater space for logos, washing instructions, symbols and product information.

Add Your Logo, Brand Name & Care Information

Your washable ribbon labels can be personalised with a range of information, including:

  • Company or brand logo
  • Business or maker name
  • Product information
  • Fabric composition
  • Washing instructions
  • Care symbols
  • Website or suitable contact information
  • Other simple single-colour artwork

We print your design repeatedly along the ribbon, giving you a continuous roll of custom labels ready to be cut and sewn into your finished products.

Printed on Rolls – Ready to Cut & Sew

Your custom labels are supplied continuously printed on a roll. Simply cut each individual label to the required length before sewing it into your garment, soft toy, bag or other textile product.

This makes them particularly useful for:

  • Clothing and garments
  • Handmade children's clothing
  • Soft toys and fabric toys
  • Knitwear
  • Bags and textile accessories
  • Craft and handmade products
  • Independent clothing brands
  • Small-batch textile businesses

OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Approved Ribbon

The ribbon used for these washable labels is OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 approved and is suitable for use with children's clothing.

If you are producing clothing or textile products with specific regulatory, testing or labelling requirements, please ensure that the complete finished product and label specification are appropriate for your intended use.

Specialist Single-Colour Washable Printing

These labels use a single-colour specialist washable printing system. Choose your preferred ribbon width and then select from the available washable print colours shown on the product page.

If your logo or design requires multiple colours, detailed illustrations or full-colour branding, our full-colour custom ribbon labels may be more suitable.

Free Artwork & Visual Proof Before Printing

You don't need to create the finished ribbon layout yourself. Simply supply your logo, wording, care information and any symbols you'd like included when ordering.

We'll prepare the artwork for you and send a visual proof for approval before Your Labels are printed, allowing you to check the design, wording and layout first.
