Letterpress Swing Tags
A letterpress swing tag tells your customer the product they're holding is worth every cent.
Most tags are an afterthought. A thin piece of card with a barcode and a price. But the tag is the last thing someone reads before they commit — and if it feels cheap, it casts doubt on everything else.
I've been doing this for 25 years and I can tell you — a well made tag does real work. It bridges the gap between what your product looks like and what you're asking someone to pay for it.
Every tag is custom made here in the studio across a range of weights and stocks. Send your artwork through and I'll point you in the right direction.
Format Specifications:
- Standard: up to 55 x 90mm

*A note on 300gsm stock: If you select double-sided printing for 300gsm, the front will feature a visible impression, while the back will be printed 'kiss' style (flat ink only). For a visible impression on both sides, we recommend our 450gsm, 600gsm, or 700gsm stocks.

Letterpress has its own rules when it comes to artwork.
Not every design translates well to press, so before you get too attached to a concept, it's worth a quick read. I've put together separate guides for Adobe and Canva users — five minutes now saves a lot of back and forth later.
