Away That Day mailer

For Away That Day, we created custom mailer bags using 130 GSM FSC mix kraft paper. These die-cut bags, with peel-and-seal strips and a tear-open perforation, offer a sustainable and secure e-commerce packaging solution for its sportswear.

Featuring a grip seal fastening and a slightly frosted finish, these bags ensure product protection while meeting sustainability goals.

We worked with Gym King to create distinctive sports tapes. This solution elevated the branding while ensuring the sustainability and performance required for its activewear.

Altura rebrand packaging

We supported Altura's rebranding by supplying naturally degradable and recyclable FSC kraft papers for its luggage tickets, alongside 70% recycled LDPE poly bags. This enhanced the branding while aligning with environmental commitments.

COPA heat transfers

Together with COPA, we created raised silicone heat transfers that are flexible and resistant to wear. These transfers are ideal for sportswear garments, ensuring comfortable, durable branding that moves flexibly with the wearer during activity.

Specialised branding solutions for swimwear

Swimwear branding requires visual appeal and resilience to chlorine, saltwater, and UV. Weavabel's components maintain integrity and aesthetic through all aquatic challenges. 

We rigorously test our swimwear garment trims to ensure colour vibrancy and performance hold up in each individual piece. Our solutions ensure your swimwear stands out with beautiful, durable branding, reflecting true quality.
