Name labels for adults — label clothes and belongings at work, the gym, and while traveling

Name labels aren’t just for kids

Anyone who shares spaces with others knows how easily things get mixed up. At work, at the gym, while traveling — anywhere people store their belongings next to others.

Lappu’s name labels for clothes work just as well for adults as for children. Self-adhesive. Withstand washing machines and dishwashers up to 60°C. Discreet enough to stay hidden inside garments.

Where name labels help adults label clothes and belongings

Workplace

Shared fridge. Shared lockers. Open office spaces.

Your water bottle looks like your colleague’s. Your dark blue jacket looks like three others.

A name label inside your jacket or under your bottle solves it.

Especially useful for labeling workwear in healthcare, industry, and hospitality — where uniforms look identical and people change in shared locker rooms.

Gym and sports

Black gym bags in a pile. Identical water bottles. Team sports where 15 people change at the same time.

Name labels inside bags and on equipment save time. Everyone can keep track of their belongings.

Travel

Black suitcases on the baggage carousel. Chargers left in hotel outlets.

A name label inside your suitcase and on your charger cable means you don’t have to guess which one is yours.

Shared living

Student housing, shared apartments, or communal laundry rooms.

With name labels, everyone avoids searching for their belongings.

Home care

Before moving into a nursing home, name labels can help during home care visits. Read more about name labels for nursing homes if you’re preparing for a move.

Staff sometimes handle clothing and belongings — labeled items end up in the right place.

Why not just use a marker?

Three reasons:

  1. Marker ink fades in the wash — after a few cycles, it’s gone
  2. It shows through thin fabrics
  3. You have to write everything by hand, again and again

With name labels, you design once, order once, and apply in seconds.

Our name labels keep their text and design wash after wash.

How to use name labels for clothes and belongings

  1. Make sure the surface is clean and dry
  2. Peel off the backing
  3. Press firmly for 10 seconds
  4. Wait 24 hours before washing

Our self-adhesive name labels stick to textiles, plastic, metal, and leather.

Perfect for labeling clothes (care label), water bottles (under the lid), suitcases (inside), and chargers (on the cable).

What makes name labels stay in place?

Three things matter:

Adhesive quality
Our adhesive is designed to withstand washing machines and dishwashers — up to 60°C.

Surface
Care labels and smooth surfaces give the best results. Avoid fuzzy or heavily textured fabrics.

Curing time
Wait 24 hours before washing. This allows the adhesive to reach full strength.

Our name labels are made for clothes that are washed frequently — and they stay in place.
