Clothing Labels And Some Of Its Uses

By Debra Cooley


Clothing labels would be very useful to date out every clothing and garment. These are often used to tell about its brand and will serve as a physical textile labeling on all garments. This has been important to most industries especially those that are dealing with apparels. These may as well vary depending on its quality either woven, printed and those hang tags.

All these tags will contain relevant data that indicate the garment size, where it was manufactured, the certain materials that were used to produce it and the instructions to be followed to care for it. The name of the manufacturer may also be indicated and some other numbers. Still, there are those modern makers of such garments that would place such information by using some silk screens where it will be printed outside the clothes.

These labels would often come in various types as well. The brand or main label would indicate the logo of the company that sells such clothes. This plays a big role to all customers since most of them would purchase those that come from famous companies. It is often associated with the quality of product and its durability.

The size label will define a certain set of measurements that are used for the human body. It is usually printed to inform about its size. The usual sizes will be small, medium or large. By having this, a customer would be able to choose what size would fit him exactly.

A care label will include the wash and ironing instructions. This is usually attached at the side seam. The purpose of this is to warn the owners on what to do in washing, drying and ironing to maintain its color, designs and other color bleeding problems. This may also include other information such as its fiber contents.

The outside seam usually have some attached flag labels. These are generally created from its brand logos. It is primarily used to provide an extra design feature for any clothing apparel or garment.

A manufacturer label will tell about the code of the manufacturer that is given to the buyers. Many of the international buyers would buy garments from various parts of the world and distribute it all over the world. Whenever a buyer would need to track the manufacturer of the specific product, they will often use the code that is printed.

The batch that made the garment and the sewing line is always indicated in the batch mark label. This is normally unnoticed and might as well be neglected by several brands and buyers. Manufacturers will often attach this for them to pass the whole inspection process and for them to determine what certain line produced the clothes. This can be placed on the side seam that is found beneath the wash care tag.

Special clothing labels are often placed to draw the attention of a customer at the time he will purchase some clothes. Having these will allow the manufacturers to create their name and make them known in the market. This is one of the many ways that they are using to create their brands huge and so that they can be easily recognized by people.
