Setup with instructions The labels themselves are simple adhesive consumables, but meaningful use requires already owning and knowing how to operate the PenFriend pen. A family member or caregiver could set up the recording system with documentation in under 30 minutes — guided_setup is appropriate. No professional assessment is needed.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026

These are wash-resistant adhesive labels designed to work with the RNIB PenFriend audio labeling pen, which records a spoken description to each label's NFC-like chip — letting someone scan the label later to hear what color, pattern, or care instructions apply to that garment. They're intended for people who are blind or have low vision and want to manage their own wardrobe independently without sighted assistance. This is a consumable accessory, not a standalone solution — you must already own an RNIB PenFriend device for these labels to serve any AT purpose whatsoever. Labels should be applied to the garment's existing care tag (not directly to fabric), need seven days to fully bond before the first wash, and are rated for 50+ washes up to 50°C — not suitable for dry cleaning.

What Setup Looks Like

  • Out of the box
    Peel a label from the backing sheet and press firmly onto the garment's existing care tag.
  • With a guide
    1. Wait seven days after application before washing the garment for the first time.
    2. Use the PenFriend device to record a spoken description — color, pattern, care notes — onto each label.
    3. Scan labels with the PenFriend pen to hear the recorded description when choosing or sorting clothes. See RNIB PenFriend documentation for detailed recording instructions.
