A method, system, and apparatus for a sew free seamless interior woven label application may be shown and described. Weaving fusible thermo-adhesive heat seal yarns may be applied to the fold backs of any woven label through an automated process. The woven labels with the fusible thermo-adhesive heat seal yarns may be affixed to the desired garments through an automated process by applying heat to the woven labels, thereby activating the fusible thermo-adhesive heat seal yarns, causing the woven label to become affixed to the desired garment. Such a method, system and apparatus can make the garment manufacturing process and woven label application process more efficient, eliminate waste, enhance visual appeal of the final garment product, and reduce manufacturing costs, among other advantages.
