Vegan cactus leather for your labels

2023-03-08
Vegan cactus leather for your labels

Exclusively available here: Labels made from vegan cactus leather!

While this innovative plant-based leather is already used for car seat covers and vegan leather accessories, we have optimized it specifically for laser engraving your labels. The fine lines, designs, and fonts of your engraved creations stand out beautifully on cactus leather made from prickly pear cacti.

Learn more about the new cactus leather in our web shop or design your custom cactus leather label directly in the configurator.

The Opuntia ficus-indica, commonly known as the prickly pear cactus, is a resilient plant that thrives without irrigation or fertilizers.

To produce cactus leather, the cactus leaves (Nopal) are harvested, shredded, and dried under the sun. The leaves regenerate continuously and can be harvested for up to eight years. In Mexico, the prickly pear cactus is used as a vegetable, and its fruits are popular worldwide. Since the plant grows abundantly in arid regions, the production of cactus leather does not compete with food production.

New: Individual care labels made of organic cotton

New: Individual care labels made of organic cotton

Nothing but the best directly on the skin!

Our professional care labels are now available in 3 particularly sustainable qualities:

  • Basic: We print your design in black on soft, white satin ribbon made from recycled polyester (rPET). Basic care labels are cut using a special ultrasound process. Therefore, the labels do not fray and have particularly soft edges.
  • Cotton: For your particularly sustainable projects, choose care labels made from undyed organic cotton. It's best to sew them on folded over or to bind the cotton care labels into the seam. Since cotton cannot be sealed, the cut edges will fray.
  • Color: The care labels in our Color version are colorful and particularly elegant. We print the high-quality satin ribbon made of recycled polyester (rPET) in all the colors of the rainbow according to your wishes.

Take a look now

Simply design and order directly online:

Just upload your logo - or use the text fields in the configurator to include information about you and the composition of your textiles legally compliant on your care label. All washing symbols are automatically selected in the legally prescribed order. You can also upload a complete design directly. Quickly check the preview image and order directly!

Professional care labels Basic now in rPET

Sustainability is an important topic and is becoming increasingly important. We also pay attention to sustainable production and packaging. Our labels are already packed and shipped in recyclable bio-film.

From now on we also produce our professional care labels Basic made of rPET. RPET is a recycled polyester which is mainly produced from PET bottles and can be used in the form of polyester yarns for clothing, among other things.

We print the basic care labels in black on white on soft polyester satin.

You can design them in our configurator with your own logo and texts. You select the care symbols suitable for your textiles in the legally prescribed order and enter the composition of the fibres.

This is how you fulfil the legal requirements with your care labels.

FloraPap metallic labels now with black engraving

FloraPap metallic labels now with black engraving

They are richer in contrast and have a black back. From now on you can get your FloraPap metallic labels in a revised look.

Logo and inscription more legible

Subtle is beautiful, but not for every purpose. Especially on reflective materials a high-contrast engraving is much easier to see.

Black back especially noble

Laser engraving produces slight traces of powder on the material, which not everyone likes. They are no longer visible on the black back.
Especially hangtags benefit from this.
