Let us know once you receive them on the quality and service they provided.

I have to get some myself but would like something that will handle the weather.

I would also be interested in seeing these as I have been researching label companies..................90% of my work stays outdoors so it needs to hold up to the weather too.

Hiya
I have them already, the quality is good but i'm not sure they would hold
up to lots of weather as they are a woven label much like
the ones you get in the back of clothes. I'm going to use them
on small covers sewn to the inside and cushions etc

for exterior I use these, the one in the pic has a marble finish
but i have now changed to black with white writing. Being oval
i can also give them away as keyrings

they are riveted on with a snap and are made from a laminate plastic.
i get them from a marine supplier who makes those engraved plastic
warning labels for stuff like gas shut off valves, they are coloured on top and white underneath
so when engraved the white shows up in the lettering.

I think they look much much nicer than most exterior labels and they wont
shred or fade over the years. How many times have you seen unreadable
labels on canvas ?
