Jewellery & retail tags

A ten-millimetre tag has to carry a barcode, print both sides and hang. What this trade tests is die-cutting accuracy, not printing.

Problems
Three problems to solve first
01

Tiny die-cut formats

Below 10 × 20 mm a fraction of a millimetre off and the blade clips the barcode. Small formats need their own tooling, not a slot on a standard layout.

02

Two sides and a hole

Brand on the front, barcode on the back, a punched hole for the string. Registration has to hold within half a millimetre to look right.

03

Scanned all day at the counter

The same tag goes through hundreds of scans; a paper surface furs up and stops reading. Silver PET or a laminated face lasts.
