By using polyester made from recycled components, the general raw material cycle can be extended. By reusing the raw materials, a negative environmental balance is automatically counteracted. There are no restrictions with regard to format and tape layout. There is no loss of quality, grip or care properties compared to labels made of unrecycled polyester. The use of certified recycled tape material is subject to the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 and is certified in Appendix 4. There are no restrictions with regard to format or ribbon design.

We care about nature and the environment. Print labels made of organic cotton are not only sustainable for us, but also for our customers. For example, the printing ribbons are made from certified materials from controlled organic cultivation. There are no disadvantageous characteristics compared to print labels made of conventional cotton.

Woven labels made of recycled polyester do not lose any of their quality, feel or care properties compared to labels made of non-recycled polyester. The use of certified recycled warp and weft material (black and white) is optically an outstanding quality impression and motive resolution. Special colours made of recycled PES from 10,000 pieces are also possible. They are Oeko-Tex Standard 100 and Annex 4 certified. There are no restrictions with regard to format or tape layout. There is also no need to use chemicals for a more soft label finish.

For our customers we also offer the possibility of a high-quality cotton fabric with a fine feel and look. FSE is a specialist for any kind of woven labels made of cotton. There are material mixtures of cotton and polyester, but also qualities made of 100% cotton (depending on the quantity purchased). The particular know-how lies in the specialisation of the weaving technique and the procurement of particularly fine cotton yarns. A natural label also stands for the sustainable well-being of the environment. Therefore we also offer labels made of organic cotton.

Sustainability and fair trade are very important to us, which is why we are happy to express this according to your wishes. The choice of recycled paper can also have a beautiful and interesting effect on the hangtag, putting your brand in a charming and sustainable light.
