Hang tag requirements vary across industries. For example, clothing hang tags must comply with GB 18401-2010, "National Basic Safety Technical Specifications for Textile Products," and clearly indicate safety levels as Category A (Infants and Toddlers), Category B (Direct Skin Contact), or Category C (Indirect Skin Contact). Food hang tags must adhere to GB 7718-2011, "General Rules for the Labeling of Prepackaged Foods," and include an ingredient list, expiration date, and nutritional information.
In terms of material, paper hang tags dominate the market (accounting for approximately 65%) due to their low cost and printability, but they offer poor weather resistance. PVC or PET plastic hang tags (accounting for 25%) are waterproof and wear-resistant, making them suitable for outdoor products. High-end brands tend to use fabric or metal hang tags (accounting for 10%) for a more premium feel.
