Labels with Thread / Tags

Jewellery labels with thread or swing-tags are also called tie-on labels or just tags. They can be regarded as the original form of the label par excellence and are also the traditional form of jewellery labels. In the past, when it came to attaching information to a product, the obvious solution was to attach a written piece of paper to it with a thread - the swing-tag was born.
 

The label with thread - a classic

Classic labels with thread for manual marking are among the historically oldest labels in the eXtra4 Labelling Systems range. Our traditional labels with thread or swing-tags are therefore made of sturdy cardboard or plastic and are not suitable for the use in label printers because of the attached thread.
Please pay attention to this symbol when choosing your label for marking by hand:
Today, however, we mainly manufacture thread labels for use in label printers. They are made without thread from self-adhesive materials and marked by computer - usually using a thermal transfer printer. The thread is attached only after the printing.

Individual Labels with Thread

Custom-made examples for jewellery tags
 

We develop our own shapes for labels with thread according to the customer's wishes. In case of self-adhesive shapes, we can colour the label in any shade. In the case of non-self-adhesive labels with thread, we are dependent on the range of materials available on the market, but endeavour to implement our customers' individual ideas.
We will be at your disposal to print your label with thread in your company colours. In glossy hot foil stamping your logo will look particularly noble.

Standard Threads with labels for Handwriting

Tags to be inscribed by hand are knotted into a cotton thread, standard white, thickness 40, 7 cm long with a usable length of 5.5 cm. We can offer threads in other materials, colours, lengths and thicknesses on request.
 

Standard Threads with labels for label printers

Self-adhesive labels with thread are not equipped with a thread until they have been marked in a label printer. For attaching a thred we recommend our pre-knotted threads on a roll. The thread is looped into label shapes with holes. In case of label shapes without a hole, the thread is inserted into the fold between the labelling fields before they are glued to each other.
 

Security Threads for tags

For jewellery with more security requirements, we recommend security threads from our range. Once closed, their locking mechanism can not be reopened. The thread must be cut to remove the label.
 

WrapTags - the Tag with a Plus in Security

A high-quality appearance give security threads in combination with self-adhesive labels with thread of the WrapTag type.
 
In that case, two additional label fields made of glossy, transparent film enclose the printed labelling fields as soon as the label has been folded. The tag looks heavier, is stronger and less susceptible to dirt, damage or manipulation. By gluing in a transponder, WrapTags can also be used as RFID tags.

WrapTags with Thread
and their Application

 

For application, the partial surfaces of a WrapTag are folded along their edges and, starting at the imprint, glued to each other in a wrapping process. The two transparent label areas encase the printed opaque ones. The label virtually wraps itself in its own protection cloak. Thanks to perforated parting lines, folding is easy and succeeds with a perfect fit. Pre-punched holes meet each other exactly without effort. The resulting opening is used for a thread to attach the WrapTag.

Labels for Needles / Jewellery labels for needles and brooches

Labels for needles are a special form of jewellery labels which are oriented to the requirements of a now rather rare type of jewellery: the label has a pair of holes for inserting the needle of pins and brooches. In order to hold the attached label, however, the openings of a needle label should have small dimensions.
Suitable jewelry label shapes for needles can be found in the eXtra4 label range both as self-adhesive labels for marking in the label printer and for marking by hand.
 
 
You can recognize labels for needles for handwriting by this symbol: .
If marked this way, the labels are not suitable for label printers.

Labels for Pearls / Jewellery Labels for Strands of Beads / Bead Labels

Pearl strands as any strands of beads make special demands on jewellery labels. At the same time as individual labelling, users also want tamper-proof sealing of the strand's open end. The label should reliably prevent beads from being lost, exchanged or stolen unnoticed. For this purpose, the bead label and bead strand are connected with a metal eyelet so that the attached label seals the strand and protects it from unauthorised access.
The pearl label therefore needs a precisely fitting opening so that an eyelet can be inserted and sealed to the label material by closing the label. After closing, the eyelet must not be able to be removed from the label without damaging it.

Individual Labels for Pearls and Beads

Custom-made examples of pearl labels and bead labels
 

We develop label shapes for strands of pearls and beads according to individual requirements. They are always self-adhesive and designed for marking in label printers. For handwriting, it is also possible to mark our pearl labels with a suitable pen. We can colour suitable adhesive materials as required and print them with a lettering or logo. Hot foil stamping is also possible.

Labels for Pearls and Beads with protective cover

Pearl labels are particularly effective as WrapTags. Here, two additional label fields made of glossy, transparent foil are wrapped around the printed inscription fields as the label is folded and enclose them. Pearl labels as WrapTags have a higher stability, carry more weight and are less sensitive to dirt.
 

Pearl labels for hanging

Jewellery labels for pearls and beads often also have to take into account that strands of pearls and beads are stored hanging. Pearl labels therefore also require an opening for the hanging device. Accordingly, labels for strands of pearls and beads must have sufficient strength to carry a certain weight without being damaged.
