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 Writing Utensils/ clip sliders for fountain pens, ball pens and stylos of all kind

Special labels for writing utensils are usually in demand where pens from the upper market segment have to be labelled in large quantities. In many cases, labels must not be glued directly onto the surface. Nevertheless, they must be easy to attach to any writing instrument and sit reliably. The labels should be easy to remove and remain repositionable at the same time. The clip slider meets all these requirements as an ideal label solution especially for writing utensils.
 

Clip slider as label for writing utensils
Clip sliders use the tension of the clip. The clip sits on the pen itself or on its cap and can fix the label there. To do this, it is either clamped under the clip, pushed over the clip's bracket or both at the same time. We are able to develop an individual solution for our customers.
Labels for writing utensil in the form of a clip slider can be made of both, non-adhesive and self-adhesive materials. The crucial factor is whether the customer wants the label to be delivered with all the information printed on it.
If the label for writing instruments is to be printed on site with individual data according to requirements and quantity, the clip slider must be able to be processed as an endless web in a thermal transfer printer. Labels for writing utensil that cannot be printed on the label printer are marked separately and show this symbol .
 

Labels for writing utensil can be individually designed on their front. We produce clip-sliders with printing in corporate colours, with glossy metallic embossing or 4-coloured. Also price and barcode, the variable data of the back, or the folded label part, we create for our customers. It is possible to print completely uniformly over the entire print run or variable data, split in various small print runs.
 

Jewellery Certificates / Passes in credit card shape for jewellery and gemstones

Jewellery certificates consist of a non-self-adhesive foil composite. They are punched into the continuous web as card labels via microperforation. Along these fine dividing lines, the jewellery certificates in credit card style can later be separated one by one from the web. Smooth and flexible, with a glossy surface, the cards are well in hand. Compared to the usual plastic card, however, a card label has a smaller volume and weight than a standard plastic card.

Jewellery certificates from the label printer
The imprint of individual data of the respective piece of jewellery or gemstone takes place in the conventional thermal transfer printer, as it is widely used as a label printer. The scratch-resistant carbon ribbons common for label printing can also be used here. Owner of our label printing software "eXtra4" type in their data easily via specially created label layouts in the program to print the jewellery certificates.
 

Individual Jewellery certificates

Custom-made examples for Jewelry Passes and Gemstone Certificates

Card labels are suitable as jewelry passports and gemstone certificates. The front can be printed in corporate design with logo, individual lettering and slogan. For production of card-labels we use conventional printing. We produce large print runs of 5,000 pieces or more by analogue processes. In addition to colour printing, it is also possible to embos with glossy metallic foils. 4-colour digital printing is recommended as an economical solution for jewellery certificates in small runs of 250 pieces and more.
