Care and Washing Label QR Codes

Care labels are itchy, tiny and usually cut out within a week. A care QR code moves the washing guidance, the fibre composition and the country of origin onto a page that is always legible and never cut out.

What goes on the page

  • Care symbols chosen from a checklist, written out in plain English underneath.
  • Fibre composition, listed by percentage.
  • Extra guidance in your own words: drying flat, pilling, first wash advice.
  • Country of origin.

Who this is for

Clothing brands, knitwear, workwear, home textiles, upholstery and anyone selling something that gets washed. It is particularly useful for small runs where printing a full multilingual care label is disproportionate.

Why it beats a woven label

A woven label is fixed at the moment it is made, in one language, at a size nobody can read comfortably. A code lets you write as much as you like, correct it if the fabric supplier changes, and add the sort of practical advice that reduces returns: how to deal with pilling, whether it will shrink, what to do about a stain.

It also removes the itch. Print the code on a hem tag or the swing ticket and the garment itself stays soft.

Common questions

Does this replace the legally required care label?

Fibre composition labelling is required on textiles sold in the UK and EU, and that requirement is about the physical label rather than a web page. Treat this as the fuller explanation that sits behind the label, not as a replacement for it, and check your obligations for the markets you sell into.

Will it survive washing?

The page will. Whether the printed code survives depends on the substrate: a swing ticket does not go in the machine, whereas a printed hem tag needs a wash durable material. We can advise on that.

Can I use one code across a whole range?

Yes, where the care instructions are genuinely identical. Use separate codes where composition differs, since that is the part people rely on.
