How to choose hang tags and washed tags

Edit:    Click: Times   Date:2025-10-23

Hang tags are generally used in industries such as clothing and mechanical and electrical equipment. The hang tag has a continuous roll shape and a single hanging tag one by one. It can also be printed blank or in the form of a printed trademark.

At present, the materials commonly used for clothing tags on the market include cardboard tags, self-adhesive cardboard tags, and PVC plastic tags. Cardboard tags can be made in different thicknesses according to customer needs, such as 128g, 157g, 180g, 210g, 250g, 300g, or thicker ones like 350g and 400g. In addition, the heavier the cardboard, the better the stiffness. The thickness suitable for barcode printer printing is less than 300g. If the weight of the tag exceeds 300g, a single tag printer Venus204 can be used. Cardboard tags are generally distinguished by single-sided and double-sided printing, and are matched with wax based carbon tape and mixed based carbon tape. The printing effect of wax based carbon tape is good, but the printed content is easily scratched, especially when used in some high-end fashion. When packaging, the hang tag directly contacts the clothes, and the carbon powder on the hang tag can easily dirty the clothes. So generally, a mixed base of semi wax and semi resin is chosen for printing, which has a good effect and does not have to worry about the problem of toner falling off easily.

Adhesive cardboard hang tags are generally made of copperplate paper with a thick base (mostly 180g and 270g) and a surface material of 65g, which has adhesive properties. The printing characteristics are similar to cardboard tags, and it is also suitable to print with mixed carbon tape. This material can bring more convenience to merchants compared to cardboard tags. For example, tag manufacturers can produce and process adhesive tag face paper into several parts, so that merchants can retain the information of the product at every stage of storage, outbound, and sales, making it easier to record and track. Additionally, it is recommended that customers print washing instructions or business information on the bottom paper of the adhesive tags to better serve them.

PVS tags are plastic tags with color options. Generally, barcode printers are not used for printing. Some mechanical and electrical equipment or instruments on the market now also hang a hang tag when they leave the factory. Such hang tags are generally printed and metal hang tags are also used. Their characteristic is that the finished products produced are single sheets. You can use a single tag printer to print variable information.

Washing label is a commonly used material in clothing, shoes, hats, textile industry, and other industries. There are many surface materials for washing labels, and white nylon and satin ribbons are commonly used in the barcode industry. These materials are required to be printable and printable. When the customer's information is relatively fixed and the quantity is large, it can be achieved by printing on the machine. If the quantity is relatively small and the information is variable, customers can generally choose to print with a barcode printer to complete it. Combined with professional resin based carbon tape printing, the printed content is very clear and resistant to water washing. It can be washed multiple times without fading or fading.

In addition, some materials for washing labels are developed to meet the needs of special merchants. For example, there are adhesive materials available, as well as those that are non adhesive at room temperature and require special heating for use. Whether these materials need to be printed or not may depend on the customer's own needs.
