Hang Tags are typically rectangular and printed on sturdy stock with an optional hole for attachment to the product.
Simple in their design, Hang Tags generally provide basic but important information, like a company's name and website or call attention to specific product features.
UV 1 Side Coating
UV is short for Ultra Violet Light-Cured Coating. This is a high-gloss coating applied over the front of the printed piece. It is not recommended for printed material you need to write on after being produced.
AQ 2 Sides Coating
AQ is short for Aqueous Coating. This is a semi-gloss, environmentally friendly, water-based coating applied over the entire front and back of the printed piece. It provides additional gloss and protection, and it can be written on with a ballpoint pen.
Satin AQ Coating
AQ is short for Aqueous Coating. This is a matte finish, environmentally friendly, water-based coating applied over the entire printed piece. It reduces the gloss of the printing and it can be written on with a ballpoint pen.
