HANG TAGS
HANGTAGS
Hangtags play an important role in how a garment is presented, serving as both an information source and a branding touchpoint. They provide a practical way to display key details such as your logo, sizing, pricing, and care information, while also reinforcing your brand identity at the point of sale. Thoughtfully designed they can elevate the overall perception of your products and create a stronger connection with customers. At Jointak, sustainability is central to our approach, which is why we offer hang tags produced using recycled and FSC-certified papers for brands seeking environmentally responsible solutions.
What are Hangtags?
Hangtags, often referred to as swing tickets, are labels attached to garments that communicate essential product information, including brand name, size, price, and care guidance. As one of the first brand elements a customer sees, they are a powerful marketing tool. Beyond their functional purpose, they also offer an opportunity to share your brand story, values, and commitment to sustainable practices.
Sustainable Hangtags Using Recycled and FSC-Certified Papers
Incorporating sustainability into garment trims can make a meaningful difference, and eco-conscious hangtags are a simple yet effective step. Jointak offers hangtags manufactured from carefully selected sustainable materials, including:
- Recycled Paper
Hangtags made from 100% recycled paper help reduce reliance on virgin resources and divert waste from landfill. Produced from post-consumer and post-industrial materials, recycled paper requires less energy to manufacture and supports a more circular production process. It is an ideal option for brands looking to reduce environmental impact without compromising on quality or appearance.
- FSC-Certified Paper
FSC-certified paper is sourced from forests that are managed in line with strict environmental and social standards. This certification ensures responsible forestry practices that protect ecosystems, wildlife, and local communities. FSC-certified hangtags are widely used by fashion brands that prioritise transparency and sustainable sourcing.
Advantages of Eco-Friendly Hangtags
- Reduced Environmental Impact: Both recycled and FSC-certified papers help limit deforestation and lower overall carbon emissions.
- Refined Look and Feel: Sustainable paper options can still deliver a premium finish suitable for high-quality garments.
- Full Customisation: Hangtags can be tailored with your branding elements, including logos, colours, typography, and finishes.
- Stronger Consumer Trust: Environmentally responsible packaging and trims resonate with customers who value sustainable fashion choices.
Why Choose Recycled or FSC-Certified Paper for Your Hangtags?
Selecting recycled or FSC-certified paper demonstrates a clear commitment to responsible manufacturing. Recycled paper reduces waste and energy use, while FSC-certified paper supports ethical forest management and biodiversity protection. Both options are durable, visually appealing, and well suited to detailed, high-quality printing. Choosing FSC-certified materials also helps support fair treatment of forest workers and indigenous communities.
They are an integral part of garment presentation and brand storytelling. Opting for recycled or FSC-certified papers allows you to enhance your products while making a positive environmental choice. At Jointak, we specialise in producing sustainable hangtags that align with your brand values and long-term sustainability objectives.
