    Custom Hang Tags – The Finishing Touch That Sells Your Brand

    A hang tag is often the first physical touchpoint between your customer and your product. Before they feel the fabric or try on the garment, they see the tag.

    We require vector files in AI, PDF, or EPS formats for all custom printing. To ensure flawless production, your artwork must be set up with:All text converted to outlines (fonts embedded).Images embedded with a minimum resolution of 300 DPI.Color modes set entirely to CMYK (for full-color printing) or specific Pantone (PMS) codes for precise spot colors.A minimum of 3mm bleed along all cutting lines, which will be clearly marked on the custom dieline we provide.

    Color drifting is a massive issue for growing brands, which is why we enforce a strict Digital Color Management System powered by our Heidelberg Prinect workflow. By utilizing inline Spectrophoto meter scanning during the print run, we guarantee a color deviation threshold of Delta E < 2.0 between your approved proof and the final mass production. Whether it is your first order or your tenth, your signature brand colors will remain perfectly consistent.

    We match the technology to your specific style, volume, and budget:Offset Printing (Lithography): The gold standard for high-volume custom packaging (rigid boxes, premium white cardstock).
