Everything You Should Know About Clothing Hang Tags

By Kathleen Nelson


Apparel hang labels are good marketing and branding accessories to promote your clothing lines. They are known to be effective attention grabbers and most important of all is that they serve as a product's center of information. Clothing hang tags are perfect for promoting a brand's awareness with their primary function being to relay crucial information to the buyers.

These accessories can convey very diverse information depending on your needs. Additionally, they also come in many different types and one can either choose to purchase ready-made tags or decide to have custom printed tags. The decision to have custom-printed labels usually depends on the kind of information you want to display about your apparel.

Garment labels are used to give different kinds of details about your cloth. One kind of information they can be used to relay is mandatory information. In a nutshell, this is the kind of information that the government demands to be displayed to the customer. That sort of information must be seen on any garment label.

Textile product legislators demand a lot when mandatory garment information is at stake. First, they usually require that the apparel's fiber content be displayed. This should the name of the fiber used in the garment, the percentage of fiber in the entire fabric and the fabric's weight. The percentage of fiber helps to ensure that fabric content is limited to amounts that are not dangerous to the wearers.

The percentage of fiber by weight is another piece of mandatory information that hang tags should display. The fabrics should be listed according to the percentage of fiber weight in descending order. Even fiber that has no effect on the general characteristics of the material must be contained.

The apparel's care instructions should also be seen on garment labels. Because this information is highly sensitive, it should be woven or printed in a manner that it cannot get torn or erased by washing and dry cleaning. Although any other mandatory information can be displayed on temporary labels, the care instructions should be a permanent part of any garment.

Apart from mandatory information, apparel hang labels can also be used to display voluntary information. This is usually additional information on clothing labels and in most cases it is not a requirement by the federal government. Some voluntary information could include the brand name which can help the buyer make a good choice on the product of their choosing. Besides, trademark names and guarantees can also be voluntary information displayed by the garment manufacturer.

In most cases, hang tags are usually in the form of detachable labels carrying information about a particular garment. They can be attached to the apparel by a staple, plastic tag, pin or string. It is advisable to invest lots of attention to a design that makes a clothing label attractive because a label that can command attention is a label that sells.
