3D Silicone Heat Transfer Labels

3D silicone heat transfer labels have become the standard for premium sportswear branding, and our manufacturing process produces some of the finest examples in the industry. Trusted by 361° for their performance apparel lines, these labels deliver a combination of visual impact, tactile quality, and environmental responsibility that aligns perfectly with modern consumer expectations.

The manufacturing process begins with precision CNC-machined molds that define the 3D topography of your logo. Liquid silicone is injected into these molds and cured at controlled temperatures to achieve optimal cross-linking density. The resulting label has a luxurious soft-touch feel — often described as "velvet-like" — that contrasts beautifully with the fabric underneath. The 3D relief typically ranges from 0.5mm to 2.5mm in height, creating a dramatic shadow effect that makes logos pop in product photography.

What distinguishes our silicone labels is the heat transfer application system. Each label is produced on a carrier sheet with a specialized heat-activated adhesive on the back. Apparel manufacturers simply position the label and apply a heat press for 8-12 seconds at 150-160°C. The adhesive bonds with the fabric at a molecular level, creating a wash-proof connection that survives 100+ laundry cycles. The labels are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class I certified — the highest level, suitable for baby clothing — and REACH compliant. This makes them an excellent choice for brands that prioritize sustainability messaging alongside premium aesthetics.
