Tagless label questions.

What they are, how to order them, how to press them, and how to keep them on the garment.

General questions

What are tagless neck label transfers?

Tagless neck label transfers are screen-printed plastisol heat transfers designed to replace traditional sewn-in tags. They are pressed onto the inside neck area of a garment to display your brand logo, size, care instructions, and other information. Unlike sewn tags, they are completely smooth against the skin — no itch, no scratch, no bunching.

Unlike DTF labels, our screen-printed tagless labels have a soft, matte finish that feels like part of the fabric rather than a plastic sticker.

What types of tagless labels do you offer?

We offer three types of screen-printed tagless neck labels:

  • General Purpose — High-opacity, durable labels for everyday use on most fabrics. Applies at 320°F–350°F with a heat press.
  • All Purpose Sport — Soft, stretchable labels for heat-sensitive fabrics like polyester and performance wear. Applies at 280°F–320°F. Can be used with a home iron or mini press.
  • Metallic — Bold metallic-ink labels in 8 colors for a premium look. Applies at 300°F–330°F. Can be used with a home iron or mini press.

What is the difference between General Purpose and All Purpose Sport labels?

General Purpose labels use our standard plastisol formula and require a heat press at 320°F–350°F. They offer the highest opacity and are ideal for cotton and cotton-blend garments that can handle those temperatures.

All Purpose Sport labels use a lower-temperature formula (280°F–320°F) that works on heat-sensitive fabrics like polyester, performance wear, and swimwear. They have more stretch, come on a clear carrier film, and can be applied with a heat press, home iron, or small craft press. If you are pressing on polyester or athletic fabrics, All Purpose Sport is the safer choice.

Which label type works on fleece?

None of our current label types — General Purpose, All Purpose Sport, or Metallic — are recommended for the inner fleece of hoodies and sweatshirts. The textured, uneven fleece surface prevents proper adhesion. Labels apply best to smooth, flat knit fabrics.

Ordering & pricing

What is the minimum order for tagless labels?

All tagless labels have a minimum order quantity of 120 labels per design.

How much do tagless labels cost?

Pricing is per-label and drops as quantity rises:

QuantityGeneral PurposeAll Purpose SportMetallic
120$54.99$64.99$64.99
240$74.99$89.99$89.99
360$89.99$109.99$109.99
480$99.99$124.99$124.99
1000$179.99$209.99$209.99

Per-label pricing ranges from approximately $0.18 to $0.54 depending on type and quantity. Need more than 1,000? Request a quote →

Can I choose multiple sizes in one order?

Yes. You may choose up to 6 different sizes per order. The labels will be split evenly across your selected sizes — specific per-size quantities are not available at this time.

Can I split my label order into different ink colors?

If you need the same design in multiple ink colors, each color counts as a separate design and requires its own order. Color changes on the same design are not available within a single label order.

Artwork & design

I don't have a label design ready. Can you create one for me?

Yes. If you provide your logo, we can design a basic label layout for you. Include any specific requirements (sizes, care symbols, text) in the order notes. If no specific details are provided, we will include standard care symbols: wash cold, tumble dry low, do not bleach, and do not iron imprint.

You will receive a sample proof via email for approval before printing — usually within a few hours of placing your order.

What information should I include on my label?

Most brands include:

  • Brand name or logo
  • Size (S, M, L, XL, etc.)
  • Care instructions (wash cold, tumble dry low, etc.)
  • Fabric content (optional — many brands prefer to keep this on a separate hang tag)
  • Country of origin (optional)

We recommend keeping the design clean and readable at the small 2.5″×2.5″ print area.

Do I get a sample proof before printing?

Yes. If you upload your logo, we will email you a sample image of the label layout so you can review it and either approve for printing or request changes. This happens within 1 business day of placing your order — usually within a few hours. Keep an eye on your inbox (and spam folder) for an email from us.

What file format should I upload?
  • Preferred: AI, PDF, SVG, EPS — vector formats for the sharpest results.
  • Also Accepted: PSD, PNG, TIFF, JPG

For raster files (PNG, JPG, etc.), provide artwork at 300 dpi at final print size.

I designed my label in Canva. What file do I upload?

Export your design from Canva as PDF Print for the best quality. Do not export as PNG or JPG from Canva — those will produce lower-quality results.

What are the minimum detail requirements for labels?
  • Minimum printed line thickness: 1 pt (0.014 in)
  • Minimum negative space: 2 pt (0.028 in)

Text smaller than approximately 6 pt may become difficult to read. If your design includes very fine text or thin lines, we recommend simplifying it for the best result.

Application & pressing

What temperature and pressure do I need?
Label TypeTemperatureTimePeel
General Purpose320°F–350°F12–15 secondsHot peel
All Purpose Sport280°F–320°F10–12 secondsCold peel
Metallic300°F–330°F12–15 secondsHot peel

Always test-press one label on a scrap garment before running your full batch.

Can I use a home iron or mini press?

It depends on the label type:

  • All Purpose Sport and Metallic: Yes — these can be applied with a home iron set to the wool setting (300°F–320°F), a Cricut EasyPress, or a mini craft press. Apply firm, even pressure for at least 12 seconds.
  • General Purpose: No — these require a traditional heat press with even, consistent pressure. A home iron or mini press will not apply them correctly.

Important: Ironing boards do not provide a firm enough surface. Use a flat, hard surface like a table or countertop with a pressing mat.

Do I need to cover the label with anything while pressing?

No. Our labels are designed for direct contact with the heat press platen. Do not use a Teflon sheet, parchment paper, or cover sheet — this can interfere with proper adhesion and release.

How do I know if my labels applied correctly?

A properly applied label will:

  • Lie flat and smooth against the fabric with no lifting at the edges
  • Have a matte, screen-printed appearance — not shiny or plastic-looking
  • Not crack or peel when the fabric is stretched gently

If the label peels off easily after pressing, check your temperature with a heat gun, increase pressure slightly, and try again on a test garment.

Durability & care

How long do tagless labels last on garments?

When properly applied, our screen-printed tagless labels are designed to last the life of the garment through repeated washing and wearing. They are made with durable plastisol ink that bonds into the fabric fibers rather than sitting on top of them.

How should I care for garments with tagless labels?
  • Wash cold, inside out
  • Tumble dry low or hang dry (no high heat)
  • Do not bleach
  • Do not iron directly on the label
  • Do not dry clean
  • Avoid fabric softener
How long do unused transfers last in storage?

Unused transfers have a shelf life of approximately 6–12 months when stored properly. Keep them at room temperature, away from direct light, in an airtight container. We recommend using transfers within 6 months for best results.

Turnaround & shipping

How fast do tagless labels ship?
Label TypeTurnaround After Artwork Approval
General Purpose1–2 business days
All Purpose Sport1–3 business days

How long does shipping take?
  • Free Standard Shipping: 3–5 business days after shipment
  • Priority Shipping ($10): 2–3 business days after shipment

All tagless label orders include free standard shipping.

Do you offer rush orders?

Yes. Rush production is available upon request. Contact us with your order details and deadline for a rush quote.

What is the order cutoff time?

Orders placed by 1:00 PM ET Monday–Friday begin processing the same business day. Orders placed after 1:00 PM or on weekends begin processing the next business day.

Returns & quality

What if there is a problem with my labels?

We stand behind our work. If you believe there is a manufacturing defect, contact us within 14 days of delivery with your order number, photos, and a description of the issue. If we confirm a defect, we will reprint the affected labels at no cost.

If the labels are usable but printed differently than intended (e.g., a color difference), you may return them for review. If you keep them and still need a corrected reprint, the replacements are offered at 50% off.

Please note: We are not responsible for garments damaged by incorrect application settings or lack of testing. Always use the extra labels we include to test-press before running your full production.

Full Refund Policy →

Do you include extra labels in the order?

Yes. We typically include at least a few extra labels in every order so you can test your press settings before running production. We also retain samples from your order so we can verify quality if any issues arise.
