Recommended product display weight — The ideal weight we recommend for a particular hang tab. Recommended weight should be used as a guideline only. Hang tab hanging performance is determined by a number of factors other than weight. The size and shape of product, the type of surface, and the hanging environment also affect performance. The surface should be clean, dry, and free of contaminants.

Sheeted — Sheeted hang tabs are cluster parts that have been trimmed to a convenient handheld size. Sheeted parts are ideal for hand application, either at the packaging facility or in the store. They are easy to use — just peel and place.

Wet-out — The amount of time for the adhesive on a hang tab to completely adhere to the surface to which it is attached.

Backshopping — Occurs when customers select and/or return a product from any position on a peghook without having to remove all of the products in front of it. Tower Tag Hang Tabs are ideal for backshopping.


Cluster — Cluster hang tab products are parts grouped together on a liner sheet, usually in an economy roll or a sheeted format.

Hand application — All of our hang tabs can be applied by hand, but our cluster, sheeted and loose-piece parts are designed specifically for hand application.

Impulse purchase — Studies have shown that up to 70 percent of
in-store purchases are not planned. These spontaneous decisions are made in the store when a product is noticed. Hang tabs get your product noticed.

Loose piece — Loose-piece hang tabs are single-piece, individual hang tabs.
