Tiger Tags: personalised name labels printed in Ashford, Kent

Tiger Tags is a family-run label maker based in Ashford, Kent, and a trading name of Print Junction Limited, registered in England & Wales. The brand was launched by mother-and-son team Sonja and Joe, who also founded the commercial print and workwear business Print Junction, trading since 2007. The company states it has more than 17 years of printing experience and that all name labels and stickers are printed on site at its own purpose-built premises.

The core offer is personalised identification for children's belongings: stick-on name stickers and iron-on name labels intended for school uniform, PE kits, water bottles, lunch boxes, shoes and other items children take to school or activities. The company describes the labels as waterproof, dishwasher-safe and durable, and says they have been tested through washing machines, dryers, microwaves and dishwashers.

Two label formats for school kit

• Stick-on name stickers: presented as waterproof and dishwasher-safe for bottles, lunch boxes, shoes and similar hard or flexible items.
• Iron-on name labels: described as soft, long-lasting labels that stay in place wash after wash on uniform and PE kit.

Both formats are sold in packs of 52, with a price of £12.95 shown on the site at the time of writing. The company advertises free UK delivery and dispatch within one to two days.

Designing a label in four steps

Labels are configured directly on the website through a live preview. The process has four steps: entering a name of up to three lines (first name, surname and optionally a phone number), choosing one of 100 designs, selecting a colour theme where available, and picking one of six fonts. The design catalogue ranges from simple layouts to colourful patterns such as unicorns, mermaids, dinosaurs and rockets, with the stated aim that even very young children can recognise their own belongings.

School fundraising and community work

A significant part of the business is tied to schools. Orders placed with a school's code return £1 to that school per order, and the company says participation is free for schools and PTAs, which receive promotional material. Tiger Tags states that over £100,000 has been raised for UK primary schools through this scheme. The company also runs the Xmas4Schools fundraiser and says it works with more than 1,500 schools nationwide.

The site notes that Tiger Tags is a listed PTA+ supplier and appears in Parentkind's PTA supplier directory on the recommendation of a school PTA. It also cites a mention in MadeForMums' parent-tested 2026 guide, where it was named "Best name labels for variety".

Customer feedback and service claims

According to the information available when this profile was written, the company's average rating on Google Reviews was 4.9 out of 5 stars. Tiger Tags presents responsive service by email and telephone and a quality guarantee on its products as priorities, and describes long-standing repeat relationships with customers.

Production background

Beyond the consumer label range, the founders' original business, Print Junction, began as a B2B digital print shop and has expanded over the years. The school-focused side of the operation offers a broader range of personalised printed products alongside the name labels. The company attributes label durability to its in-house production equipment and the materials it selects.
