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.
 

A Plus in Security
for labels with thread

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

A high-quality appearance give security threads in combination with self-adhesive labels with thread of the WrapTag type. In case of self-adhesive labels of the type WrapTag, 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.
