Hang tags and sticker labels

UHF labels that hang from or stick to finished garments and packaged goods. You can count stock with RFID without making new garments.

Types and preparation
  • Hang tagsTags that hang from garments on a string
  • Sticker labelsLabels for boxes, packaging and accessories
  • Printing and numberingWe print your design and encode a number in each label
No new garments needed
Hang or stick them on finished garments and goods you've brought in, and start right away.
Alongside RFID-X
Start new garments with the RFID-X sewn-in label, and finished garments and packaged goods with hang tags and sticker labels.
Same readers
Read by the same readers and gates as RFID-X.

Where it's used

  • Finished garmentsPut hang tags on garments in your warehouse and stores to start RFID inventory.
  • Accessories and packaged goodsSticker labels go on packaged goods such as shoe boxes and bags.
  • Shipping cartons and dispatchStick them on outbound cartons to record when each one left and where it went.

How the labels are attached

  1. 01ChooseWe choose the shape and size of the hang tag or sticker based on the product and where it goes.
  2. 02Print and encodeWe print the design and barcode and encode a product number in each label.
  3. 03Attach and checkHang or stick them on the goods before receiving, then check them with one pass of a reader.

We decide the label shape based on the product material, where it goes and the readers you use with it.

Frequently asked questions

How are hang tags different from RFID-X?

A hang tag hangs on the garment until the shopper removes it. RFID-X is sewn in when the garment is made and stays on it. Start finished garments with hang tags and new garments with RFID-X. Our guide “Sewn-in labels or hang tags: which to use, and when” explains how to choose.

Can I keep my current hang tag design?

We'll look with you at how to add RFID to your current hang tag design. Size and shape are set to suit the product.

Can they go on metal or wet products?

Radio waves don't travel well around metal or moisture, so we choose labels made for those products.

Do they work for anti-theft too?

With an RFID anti-theft gate, you're alerted when an unpaid item passes the door. AM and RF gates use separate anti-theft tags. Our guide “AM, RF or RFID: which anti-theft system fits your store?” explains the differences.
