Custom Identification Tags for Personal and Business Use
Custom plastic identification tags provide a professional way to label frequently transported belongings and organizational equipment. Add a company logo, team identity, owner name, contact information, asset number, barcode, membership code, or another custom design.
The compact rectangular format is similar to a standard card size, making it easy to recognize and attach without adding unnecessary bulk.
0.018" Gloss White Plastic
Each identification tag is produced from 0.018" gloss white plastic. The material is flexible and slightly thinner than a standard credit card while offering greater moisture resistance and durability than conventional paper tags.
The gloss white surface provides:
-
A bright base for full-color artwork
-
Clear reproduction of photographs and illustrations
-
Lightweight portability
-
Flexible handling
-
A smooth, professional appearance
-
Practical performance for regular use
These tags are durable but not indestructible. Product life depends on handling, attachment method, abrasion, environmental exposure, and storage.
Printing Options
Full Color Front, Unprinted Back
Your custom artwork is printed in full color on the front. The unprinted reverse side remains pen-receptive, allowing names, phone numbers, addresses, or other information to be added by hand.
Full Color Both Sides
Use both surfaces for printed artwork and information. Two-sided printing provides additional space for:
With two-sided printing, the reverse is used for printed artwork rather than serving as an unprinted writing area.
Full-Color Process Printing
Four-color process printing uses cyan, magenta, yellow, and black inks to reproduce a broad range of colors. It is suitable for:
Printed colors may vary slightly from monitor previews because screens display RGB light while printed materials reflect ambient light.
Clear Lanyard Loop Included
Each identification tag includes a clear lanyard loop for attachment to compatible handles, straps, bags, cases, or equipment.
The loops are supplied in bulk and are not pre-attached. Customers must attach them to the finished tags after delivery.

-
Confirm that the loop is installed correctly.
-
Ensure the attachment point is fully closed.
-
Verify that the tag does not interfere with moving parts.

Asset numbers

Membership numbers

Participant or employee IDs
