What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
These are waterproof, self-adhesive labels designed to work with the RNIB PenFriend audio labeling pen, allowing someone to record spoken descriptions of clothing — color, pattern, washing instructions — directly onto the label attached to a garment. They're intended for people who are blind or have low vision and want to independently manage their wardrobe and laundry without relying on sighted assistance. This is an accessory, not a standalone product — you must already own a PenFriend device to record and play back audio from these labels. Each label survives 50+ machine washes, but they're not suitable for dry cleaning, and the adhesive needs a full week to cure before the first wash.
