The EPUS company offers a wide variety of paper labels, also known as "hang tags"
due to the way of applying them on the final product.
Paper hang tags with interesting content attract the attention of a potential customer, and together with woven labels effectively expose the product's brand and fulfill the informational function.
Types of hang tags
The offer includes paper hang tags in the offset and digital printing techniques on offset papers, chalk, eco recycled cardboard and other raw materials.
Printing technique
The offset printing technique allows both reproduction of expressive colours using dedicated pigments chosen from the Pantone's wide range of colours, as well as obtaining tonal transitions (eg. photography) using the CMYK raster. There is also the possibility of using fluorescent colours.
In the case of small quantities of paper labels, the digital printing technique gains the upper hand. Modern digital printing is of similar quality to traditional printing techniques and at the same time allows the use of the same additional effects. Often it is also possible to obtain a more favorable completion date.
Paper hang tags can be printed on one or both sides.

Custom shape of a paper hang-tag can be achieved with a specific punch.
The offer also includes standard shapes and dimensions:

Additional effects
Transparent foil
Foiling is a variation of polygraphic lamination. This technique consists in covering the entire surface of the paper hang tag with a transparent foil. Thank to this, the printed surface acquires additional aesthetic qualities, becomes stiffened and protected against external factors. This type of finishing occurs in matt and glossy. The surface of one or both sides of the tag can be foiled.
Soft Touch foil
Thanks to covering the paper hang tag with a soft touch foil, the velvet effect is achieved. The ready tag will have a matt, slightly satin surface, which feels like a peach skin.
UV spot varnish
This technique consists in covering selected areas of the paper hang tag with a transparent UV varnish. It is most often used on tags covered with matt foil or soft touch foil. By applying a glossy varnish, the effect of additional exposure of selected graphic elements is obtained.
Raised spot UV
This technique consists in covering selected areas of the hang tag with raised spot UV. It is most often used on paper hang tags covered with matt foil or soft touch foil. Compared to UV spot varnish, tags with selectively coated elements with raised spot UV are both polished and slightly convex, which allows to distinguish selected elements of graphics even more.
Metallic foil
Metallic foil applied on a hang tag by means of hot stamping is a way to achieve most often a silver or gold coverage of selected graphic elements.
Creasing
Paper hang tags can be subjected to the crease process to obtain on a hang tag imprinted grooves to facilitate folding the label along the specific axis.
Perforation
Paper hang tags can be subjected to a perforation process to obtain micro-cuts that facilitate ripping off of a part of the tag along the specific line.
