Question
What paper options are available for hangtags?
Answer
Hangtags are printed on sturdy cardstock and specialty stocks so they survive handling on retail floors. The right stock depends on the brand feel you want, from clean and premium to rustic and natural.
| Stock | Look and feel |
|---|---|
| Standard coated cardstock | Smooth, vivid color, everyday workhorse |
| Uncoated cardstock | Natural, writable, matte surface |
| Kraft | Recycled brown stock with a rustic, eco feel |
| Metallic and pearl | Shimmer finish that catches the light |
| Ultra-thick | Heavy, rigid stock for a luxury weight |
| Black core | Dyed-through stock so the edges read solid black |
- Heavier stocks resist bending and hold a punched string hole better.
- Uncoated and kraft surfaces are easier to write on if tags need pricing or sizing by hand.
