Yes, we offer custom labels, tags and packaging. Minku Apparel produces and applies custom neck labels, woven and printed tags, care labels, hang tags and branded packaging in-house on every private-label order, starting from around 50 pieces per design.
When brands ask whether we offer custom labels, tags and packaging, the honest answer is that these details are where a garment stops looking like a blank and starts looking like a brand. From the woven label at the neck to the mailer box it ships in, every touchpoint can carry your identity, produced under one roof so nothing is outsourced or mismatched. Here is the full menu and how it works.
The full range of branding we produce
Custom branding covers far more than a logo at the neck. On a private-label order we can produce and apply neck labels, size tabs, care and content labels, sleeve and hem tabs, hang tags, and a full packaging set including polybags, boxes, tissue and stickers. Each is an opportunity to reinforce the brand your customer paid for.
Because all of it runs in-house alongside the garment, the finishes stay consistent and the order stays on one timeline. There is no shipping a half-made garment to a separate trim supplier and hoping the branding arrives on time. This is a core part of our private label manufacturing within the wider custom clothing service.
For the broader question of putting your own brand on the clothing, see our guide on whether you can put your own brand label on the clothing.
Neck labels: woven, printed and tagless
The neck label is your signature. Woven labels, made on a loom in your colours, give the most premium, structured feel and suit heavyweight pieces. Printed satin tabs offer a soft, minimal look, and tagless heat-transfer labels press your logo and care details straight onto the fabric for a clean, tag-free finish many tees use.
Each has a distinct hand and tier, so we match the label to the garment and your brand register, then prove it on the pre-production sample. Damask and satin weaves, folded or straight-cut, single or double-sided, the construction choices all change how the label reads and lasts.
Whichever you pick, the label is applied during construction, so it sits correctly and holds through washing rather than being an afterthought.
Size tabs, sleeve and hem tags
Secondary tabs multiply your branding touchpoints. A separate size tab under the neck label keeps sizing legible, while a woven or printed tab at the hem, side seam or sleeve adds a visible brand mark on the outside of the garment, a detail streetwear leans on heavily for its understated flex.
These tabs can match or contrast the neck label, and their placement is part of the design. An exposed hem tab, for instance, reads instantly on an oversized tee, while a discreet side-seam tab signals quality up close. We produce and position them to your spec on the sample first.
Small as they are, these tabs often carry a lot of brand weight, which is why we treat their placement with the same precision as a print.
Care and content labels
Garments sold in most markets need a care label showing fibre content, care symbols and country of origin. We produce compliant care labels as part of the build, so your pieces meet retail requirements in the USA, UK and Europe without you sourcing them separately.
Care details can be printed on the same tagless transfer as your logo for a clean inside neck, or sewn in as a separate label, depending on the finish you want. Because we manufacture the garment, the fibre content on that label reflects the actual fabric we cut, keeping your labelling accurate.
Getting compliance and branding onto one considered label is a frequent request from brands that want the inside of the garment to look as intentional as the outside.
Hang tags and swing tags
Hang tags are the retail-facing branding that tells your story at the point of sale. We produce custom swing tags in card stock, kraft, textured or coated finishes, with your logo, product info, pricing space and even a QR code, strung with cord, ribbon or a safety pin to your spec.
For direct-to-customer drops, a well-made hang tag lifts perceived value the moment the garment is in hand. For wholesale, it makes your line shelf-ready for a stockist. Either way, it is a small piece of print that carries outsized brand impact.
We scope the hang tag alongside the garment so the materials, finish and attachment match the tier of the piece it hangs on.
Trims and hardware
Branding extends into the functional trims too. On hoodies and outerwear we can add custom drawcords, branded aglets (cord tips), engraved or printed zip pulls, custom metal hardware, rivets and eyelets, turning everyday components into brand details.
These trims are where premium streetwear separates itself. A branded metal zip pull or a custom-tipped drawcord signals that no part of the garment was left generic. Because we source and apply them in production, they are integrated cleanly rather than swapped in later.
Packaging that carries the brand
The unboxing is part of the product. We finish orders in branded polybags, custom mailer boxes, printed tissue paper, thank-you cards, stickers and branded tape, so the first thing a customer touches is your brand, before the garment is even unwrapped.
| Item | Options | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Neck label | Woven / printed / tagless | Core brand mark |
| Care label | Sewn or tagless | Compliance |
| Hang tag | Card, kraft, coated, QR | Retail branding |
| Trims | Drawcords, zip pulls, aglets | Premium detail |
| Packaging | Polybag, box, tissue, stickers | Unboxing |
Packaging is scoped with you at quote stage so it fits your budget, your product tier and your shipping method, whether you sell direct or wholesale.
How the branding process works
To produce your labels, tags and packaging we need your logo in vector format, your colours, and any content or compliance requirements. We then produce the trims alongside the garment and prove the complete package, label, tag, hardware and packaging, on the pre-production sample before bulk, so you approve the finished presentation, not only the garment.
Trim minimums generally align with our garment MOQ of around 50 pieces, so a first drop can ship fully branded rather than as a compromise. On reorders, we retain your trim specs and artwork, so repeat runs match the first without re-setup.
Matching branding to your product tier
The branding package should match the garment it dresses. A 400 GSM heavyweight hoodie carries a woven label, branded metal zip pull and a card hang tag comfortably, because the details reinforce a premium piece. A lightweight everyday tee might pair better with a soft tagless neck print and a simple kraft swing tag, keeping the presentation clean and proportionate.
Getting this balance right protects your margin and your positioning. Over-dressing a basic piece adds cost without lifting perceived value, while under-dressing a premium garment leaves money on the table. We advise on the mix at quote stage so the branding spend lands where it earns its keep.
This is where manufacturing everything in-house pays off: because we make the garment and the trims together, we can tune the whole presentation as one coherent package rather than assembling mismatched parts from separate suppliers.
Sustainable and recycled options
Many brands now want their packaging and trims to reflect a sustainability stance. We can produce recycled card hang tags, recycled or compostable polybags, organic cotton labels and water-based inks, so the branding package aligns with a brand’s environmental positioning rather than working against it.
These options are worth scoping early, because material choices affect both cost and lead time. When sustainability is part of your brand story, building it into the labels, tags and packaging makes that claim tangible in the customer’s hands, not only in your marketing.
