Material & Thickness Guide
Choose Paper Stock, GSM, PT and Hand Feel
Hang tag material affects printing, barcode clarity, color appearance, hole strength, packing volume and brand feel. We help buyers compare paper stock and thickness before sampling.
Cost-sensitive apparel tags, light retail tags and simple promotional product tags.
Balanced option for common clothing hang tags, branded tags and retail product tags.
Thicker hand feel for luxury hang tags, gift tags and premium accessory packaging.
Used when the tag requires a rigid, premium card feel or multi-layer construction.
Natural appearance for handmade products, sustainable-style retail packaging and gift tags.
Suitable for luxury tags, foil stamping and high-contrast brand presentation.
Printing & Finishing
Custom Printed Hang Tags with Brand Color and Finish Control
We support CMYK printing, Pantone spot color and premium finishing. Before production, we review artwork, material, surface finish and barcode / QR code areas together to reduce approval risk.
Color system
CMYK & Pantone Printing
Use CMYK for full-color artwork and Pantone spot color when brand color consistency is important across hang tags, paper bags, boxes and labels.
Metallic detail
Foil Stamping
Gold foil, silver foil and specialty foil can be used for logos, icons, borders or premium text areas. Fine foil details should be checked in sampling.
Tactile detail
Embossing & Debossing
Raised or pressed effects can improve tactile branding. Paper thickness, logo size and foil combination should be reviewed before tooling.
Surface protection
Spot UV & Lamination
Spot UV, matte lamination, gloss lamination, soft-touch lamination and anti-scratch lamination can change both appearance and scanning performance.
String, Hole & Attachment Planning
Plan the Hole Position, Eyelet and String Before Sampling
The attachment method affects cost, production speed, packing workflow and retail handling. Attachments can be supplied or coordinated depending on project requirements. For production files that need exact hole coordinates, attachment details and approval controls, see our hang tag dieline guide.
Barcode, QR Code & Small Text QC
Make Retail Information Clear and Scannable
Hang tags often carry price information, SKU code, size code, care instruction, material declaration, brand story, warning text, barcode and QR code. Small text clarity and scanning areas should be checked before mass production.
Final-paper and finish testing is recommended for barcode, QR and small text areas. Kraft paper, textured paper, low contrast, foil, lamination and very small code size can affect scanning.
QC Points Before Approval
- Barcode and QR code quiet zone is reserved.
- Code contrast is strong enough after printing and finishing.
- Small text is readable at actual tag size.
- Double-sided artwork alignment is checked.
- Hole and string do not cover important information.
- Sample is tested with the buyer’s product, paper bag or box.
Applications
Hang Tags for Apparel, Retail and Product Packaging Projects
Custom hang tags are suitable for removable branding and retail information. They are different from adhesive labels and washable textile care labels.
Apparel & Fashion Brands
Clothing hang tags, garment tags, swing tags, size tags and brand story tags for seasonal apparel collections.
Jewelry & Accessories
Small hang tags for jewelry, scarves, socks, bags, shoes and accessories where fine text and string length matter.
Gift & Handmade Products
Kraft tags, gift tags and product story tags for handmade goods, candles, boutique products and seasonal gift sets.
Cosmetics & Boutique Retail
Branded product tags for cosmetic gift packaging, boutique retail displays and premium product presentation.
E-commerce Packaging
Branded tags that can match mailer boxes, paper bags, tissue paper, labels and complete e-commerce packaging sets.
Retail Display & Launches
Price tags, SKU tags and promotional hang tags for retail launches, wholesale programs and multi-SKU product lines.
When Hang Tags May Not Be the Right Item
Hang tags are not the best choice for washable textile care labels, long outdoor exposure, oil exposure, food-contact information that must stay on primary packaging, or adhesive barcode label applications. For adhesive labels and stickers, visit our Custom Labels & Stickers page.
Artwork, Dieline & Sample Approval
A Practical Production Process for Custom Hang Tags
We help B2B buyers move from artwork review to sampling, approval, mass production and export packing with fewer specification changes.
Send Specs & Artwork
Share tag size, shape, paper thickness, printing side, finish, string, eyelet, quantity, packing method and delivery country.
Dieline & Artwork Check
We check dieline, bleed, hole position, small text, barcode / QR code area, Pantone reference and production risk.
Sampling & Approval
Sampling usually takes 3–7 days after specifications, material and artwork are confirmed.
Bulk Production
Mass production usually takes 15–20 days after sample and artwork approval.
Packing & Export Details
Bulk Hang Tag Packing for Warehouses and Fulfillment Teams
Packing is important for B2B buyers because pre-strung hang tags can tangle, small tags can be miscounted, and multi-SKU orders need clear carton labeling. We confirm packing count and export carton details before mass production.
Efficient for buyers who attach strings in their own factory or warehouse.
Useful when you want to reduce labor time before retail or fulfillment.
Suitable for counted sets, SKU separation and anti-dust handling.
Carton labels, bundle count and shipping volume can be planned for export orders.

Factory Documents
Document Checks When Your Project Requires Them

Confirm Before Approval
- Paper stock and material scope.
- FSC logo use and latest valid file when applicable.
- Printing, coating and finishing requirements.
- String, eyelet, pin or accessory document scope.
- Buyer’s import, retail or brand compliance requirements.
FAQ
Custom Printed Hang Tags FAQ
What information should I send for a custom hang tag quote?
Please send tag size, shape, paper thickness, printing side, finish, hole position, eyelet requirement, string type, string length, artwork file, packing method, order quantity and delivery country. We can help confirm the dieline, review the artwork and recommend a practical production plan.
What is the MOQ for custom hang tags?
MOQ for custom hang tags starts from 500 pcs for many projects. The final MOQ depends on paper stock, tag size, finishing, string assembly and whether custom die-cut tooling is required.
Can barcode or QR code be printed and scanned on hang tags?
Yes. Barcode and QR code areas can be printed on custom hang tags, but they need enough quiet zone, contrast and print sharpness. Scanning should be tested on the final paper and finish because kraft paper, textured paper, foil, lamination or small code size can affect scanning.
How do I choose paper thickness for apparel hang tags?
300–350 gsm is suitable for many light apparel and cost-sensitive tags. 400 gsm is a balanced option for common retail tags. 600–800 gsm or pasted board can be used when a stronger premium hand feel is required.
Do I need a metal eyelet for hang tags?
Metal eyelets are useful when the tag is thick, premium, frequently handled or attached with thicker cord or ribbon. They can improve hole strength and retail appearance, but they add material cost and assembly time, so the requirement should be confirmed during sampling.
Can you supply hang tags with strings, ribbons or safety pins attached?
Yes. We can supply flat-packed tags or pre-strung hang tags with cotton strings, waxed cords, satin ribbons, jute cords, elastic loops, metal eyelets, safety pins, plastic loops or other accessories. Pre-strung assembly can help save labor time for apparel factories and fulfillment teams.
Can hang tags match my paper bags, boxes, labels and tissue paper?
Yes. We can coordinate hang tags with paper bags, folding cartons, rigid boxes, labels, stickers, tissue paper and retail gift packaging sets. For better color consistency, please provide Pantone references, approved samples, brand guidelines and the full packaging set list before sampling.
Can FSC-related paper documents be checked for hang tags?
FSC-related paper documents can be checked when applicable. Buyers should confirm the latest valid file, paper stock, FSC logo use, material scope, printing method, coating, string accessory and order route before approval because paper, string, eyelets and other accessories may have different document scopes.
