Custom die-cut hang tags are made by die-cutting various materials, such as paper, leather, plastic, PVC, TPU, and fabric, into various non-standard shapes. The most common material for custom hang tags is paper, including coated paper, white cardboard, black cardboard, and kraft paper. At the same time, die-cut hang tags also offer a variety of shapes, allowing for creative designs like circles, ovals, hearts, and brand logos, making them more visually appealing.
Die-cut hang tags can be combined with various printing techniques, such as hot stamping, embossing, UV treatment, lamination, and screen printing. They can also be created with window effects, cutouts, and layering, creating a layered look and texture, creating a unique visual structure and artistic effect, and enhancing the brand image.
Custom die-cut hang tags typically include information such as brand logo, fabric composition, material, size, and care instructions. Typically, the top of the tag is perforated to allow for the string to pass through. The string can be made from a variety of materials, including cotton, polyester, ribbon, waxed thread, or leather, each offering a distinct texture and visual appeal. Furthermore, die-cut hang tags can be enhanced with metal eyelets, safety pins, or metal chains for a more refined look.
Die-cut hang tags are widely used not only in the apparel industry, including fashion, denim, sportswear, and children’s wear, but also in footwear, bags, jewelry, gift packaging, and for holiday and limited-edition products. Die-cut hang tags, with their freedom of shape, unique visuals, and rich textures, have become a key trend in modern brand custom hang tags design.

1. Die-Cut Paper Hang Tags
Die-cut paper hang tags are the most commonly used type of hang tag. Common materials include coated paper, white cardboard, black cardboard, kraft paper, and specialty paper. They offer excellent printing quality and high color reproduction, and can be combined with a variety of surface treatments, such as hot stamping, embossing, spot UV treatment, lamination, and cutouts. The paper thickness can be adjusted to meet your needs, making it cost-effective and suitable for large-scale production.
2. Die-Cut Fabric Hang Tags
Die-cut fabric hang tags are typically made from cotton, linen, polyester, canvas, and other natural or synthetic fabrics. They are soft, durable, and feature a rich, textured surface. They can be printed, embroidered, heat-transferred, or silk-screened with logos, making them suitable for high-end or eco-friendly brands.
3. Die-Cut Plastic PVC Hang Tags
Die-cut plastic PVC hang tags are waterproof, wear-resistant, and vibrantly colored. They can be printed, silk-screened, hot stamped, or have transparent finishes. They are suitable for sports brands or outdoor products.
4. Die-Cut Leather Hang Tags
Die-cut leather hang tags come in genuine leather, faux leather, and microfiber leather. They are waterproof and wear-resistant, with a thick texture and a luxurious feel. They are often used on luxury goods, high-end apparel, and leather goods.
5. Metal Die-Cut Hang Tags
Because metal is harder than paper or plastic, die-cut metal hang tags typically utilize specialized metal-specific die-cutting processes (stamping/punching/laser cutting). After die-cutting, die-cut metal hang tags can be further processed with processes such as painting, etching, laser engraving, electroplating, and hot stamping to create a sense of visual depth. They are suitable for high-end apparel, furniture, outdoor equipment, and luxury shoes and bags.
The shape design of die-cut hang tags is an important component of a brand’s visual identity. They can be cut into any desired shape, from a simple square to a more creative and unique form. Each shape can convey a distinct brand personality and market positioning, making the hang tag not only a carrier of product information but also an artistic symbol of the brand.
Geometric shapes
These include circular, oval, triangular, and hexagonal shapes. Their simple, streamlined shapes highlight a sense of design and a modern flair.
Special shapes
Special Shape Die-Cut Hang Tags include hearts, leaves, animals, stars, and flowers. These unique, eye-catching shapes offer a distinct personality and can complement the product’s theme.
Logo and product design
Die-cut hang tags feature a brand logo or monogram throughout. Custom shapes can also be created to reflect the brand’s logo or product silhouette, such as shoes, T-shirts, or perfume bottles. Customization intuitively conveys product characteristics, enhancing memorability and brand recognition.
Combined Shapes
Die-cut hang tags can be customized in various shapes and sizes. They can also be composed of two or more layers of different materials and shapes, or die-cut to create hollow patterns or text. This adds a sense of layering and visual impact to the product, enhancing the brand’s premium and artistic quality.
Die-cut hang tags are usually combined with other decorative processes, such as silk-screen printing, digital printing, hot stamping, partial UV, debossing, embossing, lamination, etc, to enhance the brand texture and layering and enhance visual appeal. For example, debossed and embossed hang tags can achieve a 3D effect, making them even more attractive.
