Frequently asked questions

What’s the difference between swing tags and hang tags?

They’re the same product. Swing tag is the common term in the UK, while hang tag is more common in the US. Both describe the branded ticket attached to a garment or product, usually by string, cord or pin. 

What is a swing tag?

A swing tag is a branded ticket attached to a product, carrying information such as price, size, materials, care and brand story. It’s also called a hang tag or a swing ticket. 

What’s the minimum order quantity and lead time?

Our minimum order quantity is typically 1,000 pieces for most swing tag materials, with lead times usually running from two to four weeks. 

Can you supply swing tags for ongoing production runs?

 Yes. We hold your approved swing tag details and stock, so we can ship to your vendors on repeat order, with reordering handled for you. 

What’s the difference between embossed and debossed?

Embossing creates a raised impression, whereas debossing makes an indented impression.

What materials other than wood do you offer for your papers?

As well as FSC-certified and recycled paper, we offer stone, straw, bamboo, seed and Alga Carta papers.

What luxury finish papers do you offer?

We work with a range of luxury paper options, including GF Smith and Fedrigoni.

Are your qualities certified?

We have a range of certified materials, including FSC, GOTS, GRS, Carbon Neutral and more. You can find out more about our certifications here.

Does adding foil to a swing ticket make it unsustainable?

If the foil covers less than 10% of the swing ticket, it is still recyclable.

Does using spot UV make a swing ticket unsustainable?

If the spot UV covers less than 10% of the swing ticket, it is still recyclable.

What inks do you use for printing?

We predominantly use vegetable and soy-based inks rather than chemical-based inks. This may vary, so always discuss with your point of contact.
