Die Cut Hang Tag Printing with Precision Cutting and Flawless Color
We provide digital, offset and screen printing techniques which have their particular benefits to die cut tag projects. Digital printing provides photo quality output, zero plate costs and is ideal in short runs, variable data and design with complex color gradients. The ink density and color consistency of offset printing are better than on large quantities of paper where unit economy is most important.
Die cut tags require color accuracy since the outlined shape of the print area would be tighter than that of a standard rectangular print border. We test this by printing press proofs on the real production medium and comparing the output to your brand color matches in controlled light conditions. Send in your die cut tag design and experience in printing your design on the shape and shade with the same accuracy in every piece in the order.
Hang Tag Die Cut Into Shapes That Make Your Products Unforgettable
Differentiate your product by having a hang tag die cut into a shape that expresses your brand personality as soon as a customer looks at it. The standard tags are lost in the background since the shopper has encountered thousands of rectangles and circles hanging on products in his life. A die cut figure breaks that visual sameness with a surprising contour that needs a second glance.
Our die cutting operation starts with your design file which is analyzed by our production department to determine if the cutting is feasible, structurally sound and material is appropriate. Certain shapes onscreen may be pretty, but they may tear in the places of connection, so they need to be reinforced. It is these engineering insights that we have given you at the proofing stage in order to guarantee that you actually approve a shape that not only looks just like your idea, but also survives in real life.
Custom Printed Die Cut Hang Tags Where Art And Engineering Come Together
Add the artistic influence of a distinctive form with the advertising strength of professional printing with our custom printed die cut hang tags. These convey your entire brand message in a format that no client can overlook. In the case of a tag that is custom shaped and custom printed, all the elements are combined to make a unified brand statement.
We process the whole production process in a single roof including the artwork preparation, print plate production, printing, coating, die cutting and finishing. This combined methodology will make sure that each process step is coordinated to the others so that the registration errors and quality discrepancies experienced when the printing and cutting are performed in different facilities are completely eliminated.
Reasons to Select Our Custom Die Cut Hang Tags?
In the Packaging Tree we have made significant investments in the tooling, equipment and knowledge required to manufacture custom die cut hang tags to a level of quality and quality that can not be matched by most tag suppliers. Die cutting is a fine art where a millimeter is the difference between a clean edge and a ragged one, smooth versus jagged curves and a small design element is preserved or torn apart by the initial touch.
Our cutting machines are kept to stringent standards and our operators have years of experience in learning how to read material behavior when it happens beneath the blade. Such a blend of machine accuracy and human skill creates tags whose edges seem to have been carved, not machined.
