Elegant silk laminated hang tags are printed on 19 point (19pt) thick card stock and evoke a luxuriously supple and silky feel. Lamination adds strength to hang tags and that means a few tugs by shoppers won't set them free.
Your tags are printed in full color with optional UV spot gloss, rounded corners and of course hole drilling on 16 point coated card stock . Once we add the silk lamination to both sides of your tags they measure out to a hefty 19 points thick.
All of our silk laminated cards are printed on an offset press with stochastic screen technology, producing high-quality images and bringing out the crisp details of your artwork.

Without the use of spot gloss, colors under silk laminated coating will appear slightly muted and may alter the final result. (Even 100% K will appear somewhat charcoal in color.) Color matching of artwork is not suited to this product. Silk Laminated cards will mute your colors, if you add spot gloss to it will darken that specific section.
Due to the liquid nature of the spot gloss application, fine details may expand and fill in unexpectedly. If the spot gloss placement includes a lot of fine detail, tight corners, etc., the spot gloss will result in some filling in, especially at smaller sizes. Make sure that spot gloss designs are as simple and large as possible.
Because there may be some slight shifting of the spot UV (spot gloss) we do not advise putting the spot UV over the text. You can expect up to 1/16" variance between the gloss and the CMYK layers. So trying to line up the thin gloss with small or thin text underneath may not turnout as expected.
Spot gloss doesnt always line up 100% perfect. Usually "blind" spot gloss applications turn out the best. Aligning the spot gloss with CMYK elements often reduces the contrast of the spot gloss and any shift in alignment is noticeable. Spot gloss alone provides great contrast when applied over a solid fill or even just on the white matte stock. Another great effect is to have a pattern in just spot gloss in the background.
