How ordering works

From Artwork to Delivery in Four Steps

  1. 1

    Choose your options

    Shape, size, material, printing, finish and string. Not sure on something? Leave it and we will suggest an option with the quote.

  2. 2

    Send your artwork

    A print-ready file, or just your logo and the dimensions. Our design team builds the digital proof from what you send.

  3. 3

    Approve the digital proof

    We send a proof to check before anything goes on press. The 10–12 working days are counted from that approval, not from the order.

  4. 4

    Printing and delivery

    Your order is printed, finished, strung if you asked for it, and delivered anywhere in the UK.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not legally, in most categories - but they are where price, size and care information usually live, and they are the last brand impression before someone decides. Garment care and fibre labelling has its own rules and is normally carried on a sewn-in label rather than the hanging tag.

There is no single standard, which is why we print to your measurements. Smaller formats suit jewellery, candles and accessories; larger ones carry sizing grids, care symbols and a barcode without crowding. Send the dimensions of the product and we will suggest a size that sits in proportion.

Pricing starts at £0.02 per tag. What you pay depends on the stock, the size, how many colours you print and which finishes you add - foiling and embossing cost more than plain printing. Send the specification and the quote comes back itemised, so you can see what each choice is worth.

Yes. Send the outline you want and it is produced as a custom die-cut, in any size.

Yes. A digital proof is produced from your requirements and nothing goes on press until you approve it.
