Why choose a personalised iron-on clothing label? Because at the start of the school year, labelling your children’s clothes is essential to avoid lost items, make life easier for parents, and reassure teachers. This modern solution transforms a chore into a quick and effective gesture.
Every year, thousands of clothing items are lost in UK schools. With Tissus Print’s personalised iron-on labels, no more misplaced uniforms: in just seconds, your child’s belongings always come back home. Less stress, no more expensive replacements.
According to a study carried out by Scoléo across 548 schools, pupils lose between £45 and £85 worth of items per year. This figure highlights the scale of a waste estimated at over £1 billion nationally. A striking statistic that fully justifies investing in a reliable and durable labelling system.
Why choose iron-on labels for back to school?
A quick and simple solution
Personalised iron-on name labels revolutionise school uniform marking. Unlike traditional sew-on labels, no sewing skills are required. A household iron and a few seconds are enough to permanently apply a child’s name to any garment. This simplicity is especially appealing to busy parents preparing for the new term.
A real time-saver for parents
No more stressful mornings rummaging through the school’s lost-and-found box. Every item of clothing now clearly displays its owner’s name. Parents regain precious time once spent searching or repurchasing lost clothes.
Peace of mind for teachers
In schools, managing lost property is a significant administrative burden. Thanks to clear and visible name labels, teachers and staff can instantly identify each child’s belongings. This efficiency improves organisation and allows more focus on education.

How to use your iron-on labels
Applying iron-on clothing labels requires no professional equipment. Two main methods are available, each with advantages depending on your tools and needs.
| Method | Benefit | Application time | Durability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Household iron | Accessible to everyone | 10–15 seconds | Excellent |
| Heat press | Professional application | 8 seconds | Optimal |
A simple household iron is perfect for most families. Easy to use and widely available, it’s the go-to solution. For textile professionals or large families, a heat press guarantees even stronger adhesion. See our dedicated guide on how to apply iron-on transfers.
Real-life examples of use
In primary school and nursery
Uniform blouses, coats on crowded hangers, or identical hats are all easy to identify with personalised labels. Even gloves and scarves are no longer lost thanks to clear name marking.
In nursery and childcare
Toddlers change clothes several times a day. Spare bodysuits, bibs, socks: every item deserves a personalised label. Comfort toys and dummies, so important for a child’s well-being, are also secured thanks to this discrete but effective marking.
In holiday camps and trips
When children are away from home, identifying their belongings is essential. Towels, t-shirts, sports bags: every item carries its owner’s name. This makes life easier for organisers and reassures parents.
Tissus Print expert tips for perfect labelling
Years of expertise allow Tissus Print to offer professional advice for perfect application. These recommendations ensure durable and neat results on any textile.
Check the fabric surface carefully before application. Smooth synthetic materials provide optimal adhesion, while natural fabrics may require slightly longer heat application. This prevents premature peeling.
Avoid highly textured fabrics such as thick wool or fluffy fleece. These materials do not provide sufficient contact for the label to adhere. Instead, apply labels to smooth areas like the inside collar or care label.
Respect the minimum line thickness of 2 mm to guarantee a clean and professional result. This technical standard ensures maximum legibility and detail accuracy, even after multiple washes.
Request a digital proof (BAT) if needed before final printing. This extra step allows you to confirm the design. Tissus Print offers this service free of charge for complete peace of mind.
FAQ – Personalised clothing labels
Do the labels really withstand washing?
Absolutely. Tissus Print iron-on labels withstand frequent washing, even at 60°C. DTF printing and thermo-adhesive bonding ensure exceptional durability, tested over 50 wash–dry cycles in our labs.
Can I personalise with a family logo or image?
Yes. From company logos to family mascots, photos, or illustrations, anything is possible. Create a fun design with your child’s name for a unique identity.
Are the labels safe for children with sensitive skin?
Yes. Our OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certification guarantees no harmful substances, ensuring maximum safety even for sensitive skin.
Do I need special equipment to apply the labels?
No. A simple household iron is enough to fix the labels permanently, making textile labelling accessible to all families.
Which type of label lasts longest in the washing machine?
DTF (Direct to Film) printing used by Tissus Print is far more durable than vinyl transfers. Unlike traditional stickers, DTF embeds directly into the fibres, creating an almost indestructible bond.
What is the difference between woven labels and DTF iron-on transfers?
Woven labels require sewing, which takes time and skill. DTF iron-on labels apply instantly with an iron, without piercing the fabric. They also allow much finer detail and colour gradients.
How long do these labels last after repeated washing and tumble drying?
Our endurance tests show an average lifespan of 2–3 years under intensive school use. Even after repeated industrial drying, the labels retain their original look and adhesion.
