Custom Woven Labels with Your Logo

Woven labels: the most durable label for your brand

Woven labels are made on jacquard looms, with the logo, text and background formed by interlacing coloured threads. Because the image is not printed but part of the fabric itself, woven labels do not fade or rub off even after many washes. That is why they are the standard choice for the main brand label on clothing, bags, hats and home textiles.

Polkom manufactures custom woven logo labels for clothing brands, sewing workshops and ateliers across Europe. We prepare the design for weaving, match the colours and make a sample before the production order.

Types of woven labels

Damask

Woven with very fine polyester threads at high density. They allow crisp small lettering and complex logos, and the surface is smooth and soft. This is the most popular type of woven label.

Satin woven labels

A satin base gives sheen and an especially soft feel. Suitable for lingerie, eveningwear and luxury collections.

Taffeta

A coarser, more economical weave with lower density. Suitable for simpler logos and labels that do not touch the skin.

High definition (HD)

Woven with even finer threads for maximum detail, for logos with very thin lines or small text.

Sizes, folds and attachment

Woven labels are made in the size you need, from small size labels to wide brand labels for outerwear. The fold determines how the label is sewn onto the garment.

• Straight cut: sewn on all four sides.
• Loop fold (centre fold): sewn into the seam, most often at the neck.
• End fold: sewn on the left and right.
• Mitre fold: folded at an angle, convenient for sewing into a side seam.
• Heat-seal backing: applied with a press, without sewing.

Edges are ultrasonic or hot-knife cut so they do not fray or irritate the skin.

Colours and design

Woven labels usually contain up to several thread colours, including metallic threads for a gold or silver effect. Colours are matched to Pantone or a sample. Your logo should ideally be sent in vector format so we can prepare an accurate weaving design. We will advise on the minimum line thickness and font size to keep the label legible.

Combining with other labels

The woven brand label is usually complemented by care labels with care information and hang tags that hang from the item in the shop. Ordering them together makes it easy to achieve a consistent look.
