Custom Cardstock Hang Tags — Thoughtful Details for Your Brand

Present your products with custom cardstock hang tags that combine distinctive branding with clear, practical information. A carefully designed tag helps customers identify your brand, understand the product, and appreciate the details behind your collection.

Our cardstock hang tags can be customized for clothing, denim, sportswear, childrenswear, bags, and accessories. From simple logo tags to coordinated retail tag sets, we offer flexible options for materials, printing, finishing, and attachments to suit your collection and budget.

Cardstock Selection and Thickness

Choose cardstock according to the appearance, feel, and structure you want to achieve. Coated cardstock offers a smooth surface for crisp graphics and detailed printing, while uncoated cardstock provides a more natural paper texture.

Paper weight and thickness can be specified to suit the tag size and design. These are related but different measurements: cardstock with the same weight may vary in thickness and stiffness. For projects where the feel of the tag is particularly important, a physical material sample provides a useful reference.

Sizes, Shapes, and Construction

We can develop rectangular, square, round, oval, and custom die-cut tags, with options for rounded corners and shaped edges. Hole position and diameter can be adjusted to suit the selected string or fastener.

Available formats include:

• Single-sheet tags: A straightforward option for logos, prices, sizes, and essential product information.

• Folded tags: Additional space for brand stories, product features, or care guidance.

• Multi-piece tag sets: Separate cards for branding and retail information, coordinated as one presentation.

Custom Printing and Surface Finishes

Print on one or both sides with your logo, artwork, text, and product details. CMYK printing can reproduce full-color designs, while spot-color printing can be discussed for specific brand color requirements.

Finishing options include foil stamping, embossing, debossing, spot UV, and matte or gloss lamination. These treatments can highlight selected details, add texture, or adjust the surface appearance.

Finish selection should take the cardstock and artwork into account. Fine lettering, closely spaced details, and heavily finished fold areas may require design adjustments. Reviewing these details before production helps achieve a cleaner, more consistent result.

Product Information and Attachments

Include product names, size information, prices, item references, fiber content, or a short brand message. Barcodes and QR codes can also be incorporated, with sufficient contrast and clear space around the code. Scanning should be checked on a printed sample at the final size.

Complete the tag with a matching string, cord, ribbon, or seal fastener. Attachments can be coordinated with the tag’s color, hole position, and intended placement on the garment.

Clear Specifications Before Production

A clear specification helps reduce uncertainty when ordering custom hang tags. Key details to confirm include:

• Finished dimensions, cardstock selection, and paper weight.

• Artwork version, printing sides, and color references.

• Surface finishes, hole position, and attachment requirements.

• Order quantity, packing arrangement, and delivery requirements.

Digital proofs are useful for checking layout, spelling, and artwork placement. Physical samples are better suited to evaluating color, paper texture, thickness, and finishing effects. Screen displays and paper surfaces can affect color appearance, so sample approval is recommended when color matching is critical.

Request a Custom Quotation

Share your artwork, dimensions, preferred cardstock, quantity, and finishing requirements. If you have an existing tag or reference sample, include its specifications to help define the result you want. Pricing, sampling arrangements, and production lead time can then be confirmed for your particular order.

Hang tags are packed according to their size, material, surface finish, and attachment requirements. Protective inner packaging and suitable outer cartons help reduce bending, edge damage, and surface rubbing during handling and shipment.

Packing arrangements can include:

• Agreed quantities per bag, bundle, or inner box.

• Separate packing by design, color, size, or item reference.

• Additional protective separation for delicate surfaces where required.

• Strings and fasteners packed separately or supplied pre-attached, as agreed.

• Carton markings showing product references and quantities.

Folded tags may be supplied flat with scored fold lines or pre-folded, depending on the order specification. Packing quantities, carton dimensions, and shipment weights are confirmed once the product and packaging requirements are finalized.

For storage, keep paper hang tags in a clean, dry indoor environment, away from moisture, direct sunlight, and excessive pressure.
