Another quality is Recycled papers. They can be only original background color. You can compare with white paper which stays at top.







There are not too much options about colors for inv. papers. These papers can be printed with other colors but please consider that more printing colors on inviromental products means less invironmental.

These paper qualities are most common paper qualities.

Hi,

 Here you can see that many kind of folding styles which we are able to make for woven labels.
The most widely used foldings are ;
1.Middle folding : Mostly companies choose this folding for flag labels or main labels.lt can be use for washing instruction labels as well. For example,front side with logo back side with washing instructions.
2.Endfolding : This folding are mostly used for neck labels or hang labels.The design is placed in the middle of label(it also depends on request).
3.Straight-cut: This kind of labels are produced without foldings.Mostly they are sewed totally on clothes.






l will also give more information about qualities of woven labels.Here below ,you can see quality possibilities in our production line.
(from simple to complex)

1.Tafetta labels: Simplest  and cheapest quality  for woven labels.This quality is half transparent and less density for fabric.








2.Satin labels : Satin quality has nice , shinny looking and soft touch.They can be use for all kind of clothes.
Satin quality has limited color options for background colors.









3.Reverse satin labels: Basicly , it is same quality as satin labels but with different weaving sytle.We use this quality for different background request.








      4. Twill Labels : This quality has middle density for weaving. lt has soft touch and more options for background color.lts density is between satin and damask qualities.








          5. Woven edge satin labels : This quality is same as satin quality.However,as you can understand from name of quality,this quality has extra weaving at edges of labels.So it makes them softer .Mostly use for baby clothes and underwears.This quality has limited size options.








 6.Damask woven labels : The most common used quality. lt can be use for all kind of labels. lt has mat surface , stiff and rich looking. There are too much possiblities for this quality.







 7. High definition woven labels : lt has more density than any oter labels.And it is soft label ,because we use thinner yarns for HD labels.

Firstly ,we need to calculate price for every labels. Each labels has different specifications. Prices depend on size of label,quantity, quality  and colors.
After we receive price confirmation, our design department make new artwork for  the label.We send this artwork to our client to get their confirmation.After artwork confirmation,we start to produce labels.
