Nursing Home Clothing Woven Labels

In China alone, there are 297 million people aged 60 and above, with over 52,000 nursing homes and an annual demand of 80 million pieces of clothing. Traceable and durable woven labels have become a key driver in reducing costs and improving efficiency for eldercare institutions.

Nursing Home Clothing Woven Labels

1. Nursing Home Clothing Labels: A High-Frequency “Invisible Necessity”

Traditional labels (embroidered/paper) are prone to fraying and damage, making them unsuitable for the unique demands of eldercare settings, which include:

a. Identity Recognition: 40% of residents are partially or fully disabled—labels must clearly display names and room numbers.

b. Laundry Management: With daily loads reaching 500 kg, labels must withstand over 50 high-temperature washes.

c. Regulatory Compliance: Label standardization is now part of rating criteria for eldercare institutions in many regions.

2. Custom Woven Labels for Nursing Homes: The Three Key Elements—Size, Material, and Craftsmanship

To suit eldercare environments, labels must be precisely tailored to the garment type and usage scenario:

① Size: Customized by Garment Type

a. Long/Short Sleeve Patient Gowns: 10cm × 3cm (collar/sleeve placement for easy visibility)

b. Tracksuits/Loungewear: 8cm × 2.5cm (fits loose garments without scratching)

c. Underwear: 5cm × 1.5cm (discreet design for comfort and appearance)

② Material: Wash-Resistant & Durable at the Core

a. Preferred: Virgin polyester (anti-wrinkle, sun-resistant, <1% shrinkage after 50 washes)

b. For Intimates: Polyester-cotton blend (70/30) for skin-friendliness—requires anti-shrink treatment

③ Craftsmanship: Durability Lies in the Details

a. High-density 120D/180D weaving (snag-resistant)

b. Heat transfer printing + water-based ink (scratch-resistant & formaldehyde-free)

c. Ultrasonic seamless edge sealing (prevents fraying)
