Silk Printed Webbing Tape No 3
Screen printed words and patterns applied after weaving, the economical route to branded tape when a jacquard plate cannot be justified.
What This Item Is
Silk Printed Webbing Tape No 3 is made on our own looms in Foshan, cut and rolled to the length your line runs. Width is made to request and thickness sits anywhere between 0.65 mm and 2.5 mm. We match colour to Pantone or to your physical sample, then hold one dye lot across the full quantity. Samples take 3 to 7 days and production 7 to 15 days once the sample is approved.
Key Benefits
- OEM and private label work is the normal order here, not an exception
- Lower set-up cost than a jacquard plate for the same artwork
- Fine text and flat shapes print sharper than they would weave at narrow widths
- Printed onto polyester, cotton or polypropylene tape woven in the same mill
- Artwork changes between runs without new tooling
Problems It Solves
- Width variation that stops hardware sliding cleanly on the finished strap
- Repeat orders that no longer match the original because nothing was archived
- Branding that wears off a component long before the product does
Who It Is For
- Production planners who need a delivery date quoted with the price
- Event and promotional suppliers with short lead times
- Brands testing artwork before committing to a woven plate
Application Scenarios
- Care and size information tape
- Retail branding on short production runs
- Bookbinding tape carrying an imprint
- Event lanyards and wristband tape
Technical Features
- Thickness woven from 0.65 mm to 2.5 mm, or to your own figure
- Width made to your request rather than to a fixed catalogue range
- Pantone matched colour, or matched to a physical swatch
- Computer jacquard logo weaving on the same construction

How It Compares
Weaving survives washing and abrasion far better because the mark is structural. Printing costs less to set up and holds finer text, which is why we recommend it for short runs and text heavy artwork.
Transfers sit on the surface as a film and can stiffen a narrow tape. Screen printing lays ink into the face and keeps more of the original hand.
Plain tape is always cheaper. Printing earns its cost when the strap is doing identification work as well as load work.
Use Guide
- Ask for a printed sample before bulk; ink behaves differently on each ground fibre
- Send vector artwork and state the finished cut length so the repeat lands correctly
- Avoid very fine reversed-out text on dark grounds at narrow widths
- Allow the print to cure fully before high temperature pressing downstream

Questions Buyers Ask About Silk Printed Webbing Tape No 3
What is the minimum order for printed webbing
1000 metres per artwork and width for standard production, with printed samples in 3 to 7 days so you can check the ink on your chosen ground.
Is printing cheaper than weaving my logo into the tape
For most short runs, yes. After the ribbon is woven you can screen words or patterns onto it, which is generally cheaper than weaving the same detail directly. Jacquard becomes worthwhile when the mark must survive heavy washing and abrasion.
Can you supply a test report
SGS testing is arranged on request before shipment. Tell us at quotation stage which properties need to be reported.
Will a repeat order match this one
Yes, provided you quote the same order reference. The colour reference and any jacquard plate stay on file here for exactly that reason.
Do you weave to a drawing
That is the normal case. Width and thickness come from your specification rather than from a standard size list.
