Metallic Ink Hangtags

These tags earn their keep. The metallic ink covers the whole face rather than a small stamped area, the 16pt gloss cover feels substantial in the hand, and every tag arrives pre-drilled and ready for string. Want to see how they sit next to the rest of the range? Browse the full hang tags printing lineup, or stay here and build yours from the choices below.

The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 500 starts at $126.32, about 25 cents a tag, and the per-tag cost keeps sliding as the count climbs toward 25,000, so a full product line costs far less per tag than a small first batch.

What Are Metallic Ink Hangtags?

Metallic ink hangtags are product tags printed with genuine Pantone metallic ink, PMS 877 silver or PMS 872 gold, on 16pt gloss cover in 9 sizes from 1.5" x 3.5" up to 3.5" x 3.5". People reach for them when a plain tag would look flat: retail price tags, apparel and boutique tags, candle and soap labels, gift tags, and product branding for a launch. Because the metallic comes from ink and not a foil layer, it can cover the entire face of the tag and still keep the price down. If you want the shine from a stamped foil instead, the Metallic Foil Hangtags deliver that, and the metallic ink version sits right beside it as the value pick.

What Size Should a Metallic Ink Hangtag Be?

The right size comes down to what the tag has to hold. A 1.5" x 3.5" tag is the classic narrow retail shape, enough for a logo, a price, and a barcode. A 2" x 3.5" gives room for a care note or a short brand story, and the 2" x 2" or 3.5" x 3.5" squares let the metallic face read as a statement. All 9 sizes are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it. If none of the presets fits, set a custom size up to 4" x 6".

Silver or Gold: Which Metallic Ink?

This is the heart of the product. PMS 877 is a bright silver and PMS 872 is a warm gold, both real Pantone metallics that shimmer as the tag moves. Print one color on the front over a blank back to keep the run lean, or run it on both sides so both faces carry the shine. There are 8 ink setups in all across the two colors and the one-sided or two-sided options. Since it is ink rather than foil, the metallic can fill the whole tag, background and type alike, with none of the setup a foil stamp needs.

What Stock, Coating, and Hole Come Standard?

Every metallic ink hangtag prints on 16pt gloss cover, a thick coated card that hangs without curling and keeps the silver and gold crisp. For finish you have three choices: leave it as printed, add a High Gloss UV coat for an all-over shine, or add a Spot UV on the front to make one detail lift off the metallic. Each tag ships pre-drilled with a single 1/8" hole at top center, so there is nothing to add before you thread it with string or ribbon. Want a last look at your file?

How Much Do Metallic Ink Hangtags Cost?

Metallic ink hangtags start at $126.32 per 500, about 25 cents a tag, and the per-tag price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 25,000, where each tag lands close to a nickel. There are 8 quantity tiers, so a cheap tag really comes down to how big a run you order. How many do you actually need?
