Address Labels and Name Labels can be purchased online from Label Planet Ltd, who have developed their own unique school name labels products. Branded as Stikins® Label Planet's name label simply sticks onto the wash care label of garments, so there is no need to iron on labels or to sew in these labels. For many parents these stick in personalised address labels can be used instead of name tapes or name tags in school uniforms.
Stikins® labels have a special "H" shape which means that the vertical bars of the "H" can be folded behind the wash care label to secure it. The special shape combined with an adhesive developed for this product ensures that the labels will stay on in the wash. Label Planet personalise the labels with the name you order, and use inks which are matched to the labels, this means that the printing will not fade or rub off in the wash.
The "H" shape creates spaces around it, and rather than removing and throwing away the label material in these gaps label planet has cleverly used the gaps to create shoe and micro name labels. So there are two garment labels, one shoe label and two micro labels cut together in a label set.
The labels were developed in 2003 and many millions of garments are now labelled with them, they are supplied with simple instructions and a re-order form. The name labels are ideal for use on uniform labels and are sold in 5 different packs to suit the customer's requirements and budget.
Label Planet soon realised that many parents need a pack of labels of different kinds in order to label not just school clothes but also shoes and general items. To but garment name labels, shoe labels and then dishwasher safe and general labels separately is expensive. Label Planet's all in one name labels packs are really good value.
