PFL, commonly known as the **Care Label**, is an essential garment accessory that provides consumers with important information on how to properly care for the clothing item. Printed on satin, polyester, or nylon tapes using heat-transfer or flexo printing technology, PFL labels include details such as washing, drying, bleaching, ironing, and dry-cleaning instructions along with fiber composition and country of origin. They help maintain the garment’s quality and durability by guiding the end-user on correct care practices. In addition, care labels often carry international standard symbols that make them easily understandable across global markets. Apart from functional instructions, PFLs can also include brand logos, size information, and sustainability notes, making them both practical and brand-supportive. As a mandatory trim in most international apparel manufacturing, PFL care labels play a vital role in ensuring compliance, customer satisfaction, and product longevity.
