Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How many colors can silicone raised labels have?
1 to 4 colors screen printed onto the raised silicone surface. Bold 1-2 color brand marks are the silicone sweet spot: clean, dimensional, and graphic. More colors are achievable as well. Specify your color count and we will match your artwork colors. You may also specify Pantone color codes in the comments if desired.
Q: What's the minimum order and turnaround for silicone raised labels?
Pricing is live on the product page, build your order and see your price up to 10,000 pieces. Turnaround is 12 business days standard; rush is not available for silicone transfers, so plan your project accordingly. For runs above 10,000, request a volume quote.
Q: What designs work best on silicone raised labels?
Bold brand marks, graphic logos, and wordmarks at readable size, shapes that benefit from being felt as well as seen. Silicone makes your logo tactile. Avoid intricate fine-line artwork (minimum ~1.5mm feature width); bold and graphic is the right design language. Send your highest-quality file and we'll prepare the mold artwork.
Q: What's the difference between silicone labels and PVC labels?
PVC patches are rigid and thick. They sit on the garment like a patch. Silicone raised labels are thin and flexible, they integrate flush with the fabric surface via heat press. Both have dimensional presence; silicone is the interior/flush-label choice, PVC is the external-badge choice. Pick based on garment position.
Q: Are silicone labels durable on performance apparel?
High durability, silicone flexes with the fabric without delamination and resists sweat, washing, and abrasion. It won't crack, peel, or degrade through heavy performance use. It's the spec for brands that want labels to last through rigorous wear and frequent washing.
Q: What label type produces a raised, rubber-feel 3D brand mark on premium activewear or outerwear?
Silicone raised heat transfer labels use cured liquid silicone rubber to create a dimensional, tactile brand mark, a 1-3mm raised profile with a soft rubber texture that communicates premium sportswear or technical-apparel positioning, felt as well as seen. It's the label format on premium performance streetwear and technical outerwear. For
Q: How are silicone raised labels applied to garments?
Heat press: 150-170°C, 15-20 seconds, firm pressure, nearly the same process as heat transfer labels, with a slightly longer dwell. The result is a permanent, raised rubber brand mark that works on most performance and lifestyle fabrics. Test on a sample first.
Q: Do luxury or premium sportswear brands use silicone raised labels as standard?
Yes. Luxury and premium sportswear brands use silicone raised labels as a standard because the dimensional, rubber-feel mark reads premium and technical the moment it's touched. It's the label that elevates performance apparel above flat printed transfers. For a premium athletic or technical-outerwear drop, it's the spec.
Q: Can silicone labels be combined with woven or printed labels in a premium interior label package?
Yes. Pairing a raised silicone brand mark with a woven or printed care label is a popular premium-interior combination for elevated performance streetwear. Spec the silicone label here and your woven/printed labels together, and we'll coordinate the set.
Q: Are there matte and gloss silicone finish options for different aesthetic effects?
Yes. Silicone raised labels can be produced in matte or gloss finishes for different aesthetic effects: matte reads understated and technical, gloss reads bold and premium. Choose the finish that matches your brand's visual language. Note your finish preference to your rep.
How to Apply Heat Transfer Labels:
Attaching our heat transfer t-shirt labels is a breeze, whether you're using a heat press or a standard home iron. First, adjust your heat press to 320F or set your iron to a medium cotton level, ensuring there's no steam. Then, apply a firm pressure (around 10lb pressure) for about 15-20 seconds. Give the label some time to cool off entirely before you gently remove the plastic layer. To ensure the best adherence, avoid washing the garment for the first 24 hours after application.
Full Size T-Shirt Transfers
In addition to tagless labels for the neck area, we can also produce full size heat transfers for the main print on the front or back of t-shirts. Full size heat transfers don't have color limitations and can accommodate full color or photographic designs. Any heat transfer label over 6 inches is considered a full size transfer and are custom quoted based on your exact size, design and quantity. Use our contact us page to attach your design and request a price quote for heat transfers over 6 inches.
Why choose our heat transfer labels?
Our heat transfer labels are the top choice for tagless t-shirt branding. They are compatible with an array of t-shirt materials, like 100% cotton and cotton/poly blends, and suit almost any fabric that endures high iron or heat press temperatures. Our labels' plastisol ink is designed to flex with the garment, ensuring durability and resistance to cracking, making them perfect for sportswear. Additionally, they come pre-cut, eliminating the need for manual trimming and streamlining the application process.
Raised Silicone Heat Transfer Labels:
Raised silicone heat transfer labels are a popular choice in the apparel industry for adding a brand's logo to garments in a way that is both durable and tactile. Made from silicone, these labels can be heat-pressed onto fabric, creating a 3D effect that is visually appealing and easy to feel. They are renowned for their resistance to high temperatures, stretching, and washing, making them ideal for items like sportswear and outdoor apparel. The raised aspect of the label not only adds a unique texture but also enhances the brand's visibility and perceived quality. Use our contact us page to attach your design and request a price quote for silicone heat transfers.
Heat Transfer Label Size Versions
Our heat press labels for t-shirts offer some key options not possible with other suppliers. Most important, we offer the option to split your heat press labels into specific size versions (ex. S, M, L, XL). This allows you to get the best price for the total quantity ordered instead of requiring separate orders for each artwork version. If you need size versions, our artists will create the different versions for you when creating your digital proof if not already included in your artwork file. Simply select the number of versions required and list the sizes along with the quantity of each in the comment section. You will be able to check your size versions are set up correctly when you receive your digital proof for approval.
