Private Labeling Services
Private labeled garments are those with either your own, custom "sewn-in" label, or custom 'tag-free" labels which reflect your brand identity.
IDEA Collections has been manufacturing seamless garments with private labeling for over fourteen years. This is a great option for brand owners and retailers who wish to offer to customers well-designed, high quality, "Made in USA" seamless styles.
We are committed to making Private Labeling easy and affordable for you
Over the last year the requests for private labeling services has been increasing. As a result, we are streamlining the private labeling process to make easy for you to order privately labeled seamless garments.
Private labeling involves choosing one or more of our current styles and colors, providing your brand and/or logo information, or sending us your own sew-in labels, and our delivery to you of the styles with either sewn-in or imprinted tag-free apparel labels with your logo and/or brand name. Our garments are also available "label free" if you wish to sew in your own labels at your own location.
Upon receiving and confirming your order, we will manufacture brand new garments to fulfill your private labeling needs. We do not "re-label" existing inventory. The result is more cleanly sewn seams in comparison to standard re-labeling services offered by other companies.
Private Labeling Options:
1. Sew-in option: Send us your custom sew-in labels, and we will sew them into the garments along with our standard care label.
2. Tag-free option: Either send us your logo or Brand Name, and we will incorporate these when creating a new imprint plate. This plate will be used to imprint your garments. We will retain your imprint plates for future orders.
3. Label-free option: We will provide to you newly manufactured garments with no labels sewn in. For this option, a signed agreement will be required indicating you will not re-sell the garments without the labeling. Please contact us at info@ideacollections.com to request a copy of the agreement.
NOTE: Sew-in labels will be required for fishnet, mesh and any other styles which do not have an adequate surface area for tag-free imprinting.
Custom Label Pricing Schedule
1. Sew-in Option:
$0.25 USD per garment for sew-in labels that you provide to us. IDEA will sew in your labels w along with our standard care label underneath.
2. Tag-Free Option:
$50.00 USD setup fee for each custom stamp plate used for "tag free" label imprinting, plus $0.25 USD per garment for imprinting services. The tag-free label will include your logo, your business/brand name (or both), along with your RN Number (if applicable), and the standard care instructions, materials composition (i.e. fiber contents percentages), and country of origin (i.e. Made in USA) normally provided for the garment.
NOTE: If you are private labeling only a few styles, you may choose to use the same custom stamp plate for all of your styles, or if you have your own style numbers, we can create a custom stamp plate for each style number.
There may be additional charges, depending on your exact private labeling needs, or if your logo needs to be converted to vector format for scaling down to size. The downloadable worksheets at the bottom of this page will help identify more accurately your private labeling costs.
3. Label-Free Option:
There are no additional labeling service fees. Your newly manufactured garments will be delivered to you with no garment labeling. However you will need to sign an agreement that these garments will not be re-sold without labeling.
