In the world of product merchandising, knowing is half the battle – and in the case of Hang Tabs, there is a surprising amount of variation between models. The subtle differences in each style Hanging Tab have been meticulously crafted to serve a unique purpose in retail environments. When trying to determine which Hang Tabs will best display your products, you should first take a look at how they differ from each other. These subtle differences might allow you to adjust your in-store strategy and get products to your customer’s field of vision faster. This will result in better customer engagement, and ultimately more POP sales.
Clip Strip Corp. offers a wide variety of Hang Tabs, so let’s take a look at how they juxtapose to one another:
The Round Hole Hang Tab – This is one of the most common hang tabs and comes in 3 different sizes. The variation in sizes makes it easy to work with a variety of products and the round hole can fit most single pronged peg hooks for pegboards. These Hang Tabs can display products from 12 to 14 ounces, so choose accordingly!
The Delta Style Hang Tab – The “Delta” style hole can fit on most single or double pronged peg hooks. These Hang Tabs can hold up to 11, 14 or 18 ounces depending on the model, so be sure you know the products weight before ordering.
The Delta Style Flexible Hang Tab – The “Flexible” aspect of this delta hanger refers to the adhesive area. While the actual Hang Tab area is comprised of durable, 15mil PVC, the adhesive area is made out of thinner material. This makes it more flexible, and therefore easier to stick to uneven or curved surfaces, and is capable of hanging products up to 10 ounces throughout the store.
The Euro Style Slot Fold Up Hang Tab – This style is often referred to as the “Sombrero” because of its shape. It stays flush to the merchandise during transit, but then folds up when ready to display. It can hold up to 10 ounces.
The Clamshell Hang Tab – This is an incredibly useful product display hanger. Clamshell packaging is generally more difficult to display in a neat and orderly fashion. This Hang Tab is specifically designed to do just that.
The Heavy Duty J Hook Hang Tab – The J Hook style enables the customer to take the merchandise on and off the peg easily. This is most effective when the item comes in varying shapes, sizes or colors. It is made from a more durable 25mil PVC, and can hold up to 14 ounces.
As we mentioned earlier, the type of Hang Tab you use can heavily influence the effectiveness of your merchandise placement and ultimately how your customers notice your products. These hanging tabs hold a huge advantage over other types of product holders given their versatility.
By implementing the correct strategy, style and application of Hang Tabs, you can boost your impulse purchases, increase revenue AND improve the customer experience.
