Where can Care Home Labels be applied besides clothing?

This helps enhance organisation, reduces confusion, and helps maintain a sense of ownership and dignity among residents.

How to Apply Iron-On Labels

Step 1

Step 1: Place the label on the garment

Remove the iron-on labels from the transparent backing sheet and place the clothing label on the desired place of the garment.

Step 2

Step 2: Heat the iron to maximum garment temperature

Place the silicone paper over the label and heat the iron (with the steam setting turned off) to the maximum temperature the garment is able to sustain.

Step 3

Step 3: Hold the iron in place for 8-15 seconds

Hold the iron in place for 8-15 seconds. After this, check if the label has completely stuck; if it has not, hold the iron for a few more seconds.

Step 4

Step 4: Wait 24 hours before washing the garment

Once the previous steps are complete, avoid washing the garment with the newly applied iron-on label for at least 24 hours.
