Branded tape turns a seam, a hanger loop or a gift-box bow into a place where your name appears again and again. As a manufacturer of custom woven tapes and logo ribbons, we weave jacquard brand tape, grosgrain, herringbone and satin ribbon in our own production in Bulgaria, supplied on rolls or cut and sealed to the length your sewing line needs.
Branding that runs along the garment
A main label sits in one spot. A logo tape travels: across the back neck of a hoodie, down the inside of a zip guard, around the edge of a tote bag or through the handles of a shopping bag. Each repeat of the logo is another small confirmation of the brand, and because the design is formed by the yarns themselves on a jacquard loom, it does not crack, peel or fade the way a surface print can after repeated washing.
We weave tapes and ribbons in the same production as our woven labels. That matters more than it may seem: the yarn colours, the logo artwork and the weave density are planned once, so the neck tape, the hanger loop and the brand label inside the same jacket look like members of one family rather than parts sourced from different places.
Which tape or ribbon is right for you
Jacquard logo tape
Your logo, brand name, slogan or a monogram pattern is woven into the tape and repeats at the interval you choose. Polyester yarn is the usual choice because it is strong, holds colour well and copes with industrial washing. Cotton yarn gives a softer, matt surface that suits natural-fibre collections. A line of metallic-look yarn can lift a logo or form a thin accent stripe along the edge.
Grosgrain ribbon
Recognisable by its firm crosswise ribs, grosgrain keeps its shape, takes dye evenly and looks equally at home inside a garment and on packaging. Brands use it for neck tape, hanger loops, bows on boxes and handles on paper bags. It can be dyed to your colour and carry a woven or printed logo.
Herringbone tape
A flat twill tape with the familiar V-shaped zigzag structure. It is dense and stable, so it is the traditional choice for reinforcing seams, drawstrings, apron ties, workwear details and casual outerwear where the tape has to take real strain.
Satin ribbon
Single-face or double-face satin has a smooth, reflective surface that reads as elegant. It is popular for lingerie trims, eveningwear details, gift wrapping and pull tabs on drawer boxes, and it carries a woven or printed logo with a refined finish.
Woven elastic with logo
For waistbands, straps and cuffs we can also produce woven elastic tape with your logo on request. Tell us the stretch and recovery you need and the width of the channel it will sit in.
Tape types compared

|---|---|---|---|---|

Widths we weave
Typical widths run from a slim 6 mm trim to a 50 mm strap. The table below links common widths to the jobs they usually do; if your design calls for something in between, ask us and we will check it against the loom set-up for that tape type.
| Width | Usual tape types | Where it is used |
|---|---|---|
| 6 mm | Grosgrain, satin | Slim hanger loops, lingerie trims, small bows |
| 8–10 mm | Jacquard, grosgrain, satin | Hanger loops, piping, a narrow brand line |
| 12–15 mm | Jacquard, herringbone | Back neck tape, seam covering, drawstrings |
| 20–25 mm | Jacquard, grosgrain | Brand tape on jackets, packaging ribbon |
| 30–40 mm | Jacquard, herringbone | Strap trims on bags, waist tape, workwear |
| 50 mm | Jacquard | Straps and wide decorative bands |
Hanger loops, ready for the sewing line
A hanger loop lets a coat, dress, skirt or towel hang without stretching the shoulders or waistband. We make loops from plain or logo-woven tape, either cut to an exact length or folded and ready to sew, in a colour matched to your lining or your labels. Ends are sealed by ultrasonic or heat cutting so they stay neat and do not fray once sewn in. Loops can also be supplied on rolls if your factory prefers to cut in-house.
Finishing and supply options
- Rolls: typically 50 m or 100 m per roll, depending on width and thickness.
- Cut pieces: cut to your length with sealed ends for loops, pulls and tabs.
- Folded loops: pre-folded so the operator only positions and stitches.
- Colour matching: yarns and dyed ribbons matched to your Pantone references and kept consistent on reorders.
- Logo repeat: you choose the spacing between logos and whether they run in one direction or alternate.
- Accent yarns: metallic-look threads for a highlight line or logo detail.
Where brands use logo tape and ribbon
- Back neck tape on T-shirts, sweatshirts and jackets, covering the seam and adding comfort.
- Hanger loops in coats, jackets, dresses and bath towels.
- Brand stripes along a placket, inside a zip guard or on a pocket facing.
- Bags and accessories: trims on straps, handles and edges of totes and backpacks.
- Drawstrings and ties on joggers, hoodies, aprons and workwear.
- Packaging: ribbon for custom boxes, drawer pulls and handles for paper bags.
Inside a garment, logo tape works best alongside the main label and a size label, ideally from the same production run. For a brand that also packs in boxes, a ribbon in the same colour as the label yarn ties the product and its packaging together.
How we produce your tape
- Brief: you tell us the tape type, width, colours and quantity in metres or pieces.
- Artwork: our design team converts your logo into a weave file and prepares a digital proof, typically within 24–48 hours.
- Sample: a woven sample can be made before production so you can check hand, colour and logo detail.
- Production: after approval, weaving, cutting and finishing typically take 10–20 working days.
- Delivery: we ship across the EU, with your trims packed per style or per order as agreed.
What to send us
- Your logo as a vector file (AI, EPS, PDF or SVG) or a clear high-resolution image.
- Tape type and width, or a photo of a tape you like.
- Colours, ideally as Pantone references, for both the ground and the logo.
- Quantity in metres, or pieces and cut length for loops and pulls.
- How it will be used and sewn, so we can recommend the right weave and finish.
Quality and sustainability
We work with industrial-grade yarns and OEKO-TEX certified materials, so our tapes are suitable for garments worn directly against the skin, including kidswear. For collections with a recycled story, jacquard tapes can be woven from GRS recycled polyester yarn with the same strength and colour fastness. Cotton yarn is available for brands that prefer a natural fibre. Minimums depend on width and design – we keep them low per design and confirm the figure with your quote.

Will a woven logo on tape survive washing?
Yes. The logo is formed by the yarns during weaving, so it is part of the tape structure and keeps its shape and colour through regular washing.
Can the tape match the colours of our woven labels?
Yes. We weave tapes in the same production as our woven labels and match both to your Pantone references, so trims in one garment look consistent.
How are hanger loops delivered?
As cut pieces with sealed ends, pre-folded loops ready to sew, or on rolls for cutting in your factory – whichever suits your sewing line.
What is the narrowest and widest tape you make?
Typical widths range from 6 mm to 50 mm. Other widths can be checked on request for the tape type you need.
Is recycled yarn available for logo tape?
Yes. Jacquard tapes can be woven from GRS recycled polyester, and all materials we use are OEKO-TEX certified.
