Overview & Specifications
What Are Hang Tag Stickers?
Hang tag stickers are stickers for tags, not tags themselves. They seal a folded hang tag, add variable details such as price or size, or carry a brand seal. The printed hang tag and its string or fastener stay separate.
Hang Tag Stickers sit in the Labels & Stickers range and under Apparel & Fashion Packaging.
