Our Custom Luggage Tag Printing services blend durable materials with creative freedom so brands can produce tags that travel and last. We offer an extensive array of finishes and sizes that protect branding while providing practical use for travelers, hospitality guests, and event attendees.

Every project starts with consultation, where we align on objectives and target environments-airports, hotels, or festival settings-and recommend options that maximize visibility and longevity. We emphasize solutions that are both visually compelling and functionally resilient under varied handling and travel conditions.

Choose from full-bleed printing, spot UV, custom shapes, and variable data capabilities for personalization campaigns. Our designers and production engineers collaborate to ensure artwork translates accurately to plastic substrates, preserving color, clarity, and brand integrity throughout production and use.

Personalization tools let you create one-off tags or sequential batches with barcodes, names, or loyalty IDs. This combination of creative customization and precision printing delivers highly targeted, memorable pieces that support both marketing and operational goals without compromise.

Material choices range from standard PVC to thick, rigid substrates and metal options for a luxurious hand-feel. Finish choices like matte, gloss, or textured laminates protect printed surfaces while contributing to a distinct tactile experience that reflects premium positioning and brand intent.

We recommend materials based on use case, leveraging our production expertise to balance cost, durability, and appearance. Selecting the right substrate ensures tags resist daily wear and retain a professional, long-lasting presence that continues to promote your brand.

We provide competitive pricing for small runs and significant scale advantages for larger orders, helping clients optimize unit cost while maintaining quality. Our procurement team advises on quantity breaks, expedited runs, and bundled services to meet campaign timing and budget constraints.

To start a project, call 800.835.7919 and we'll provide a clear, itemized estimate and timeline. From proofs to final fulfillment, our process is structured to reduce surprises and deliver on time, with a focus on transparent communication at every milestone.

Custom luggage tags serve many roles beyond travel identification: they act as promotional items, VIP credentials, and functional aids in retail and event environments. These versatile products integrate into loyalty programs and campaigns to extend reach while remaining practical for recipients.

Because tags are handled frequently, they create repeated brand impressions with every trip and interaction. That repeated exposure translates into measurable engagement uplift, making luggage tags an effective tool in multi-channel marketing and retention strategies.

Hotels, tour operators, and airlines use custom tags to reinforce guest experiences while improving operational identification. Branded luggage tags add a touch of professionalism to welcome kits and can double as a keepsake that continues to market your property well after checkout.

Integrating tags with RFID or barcoded systems enhances guest services and streamlines baggage handling. This dual-purpose strategy provides both customer convenience and backend benefits, improving satisfaction while supporting operational efficiencies.

Retailers and event planners leverage luggage tags as part of gift-with-purchase, VIP welcome packs, or trade show giveaways. Their durability and visibility make them superior to paper inserts, often generating stronger recall and higher perceived value for recipients.

For campaign-driven efforts, tags can be personalized and mailed directly to customers, or included as in-store premium items. These strategies are known to increase redemption and repeat visits when deployed as part of a broader loyalty or promotional program.

Custom tags can be integrated into identity systems and access control when equipped with contactless chips or encoding. For clubs, conferences, and workplaces, tags offer a discreet, durable option for credentials that are easy to manage and replace when needed.

  • Encoded RFID for contactless access
  • Magstripe and barcode options
  • Durable laminates for long-term use

These capabilities let organizations combine branding with practical security, creating a single product that supports both identity verification and promotional goals in a cohesive way.

Our production facilities combine modern printing presses with strict quality controls to ensure consistent output on every run. We leverage CMYK and specialty inks, precision cutting, and exacting finishing techniques to deliver products that meet aesthetic and functional demands.

Security is an integral part of our offering-especially for access and identity applications-so we provide encoding services, secure printing features, and logistics processes designed to protect sensitive data and maintain program integrity from start to finish.

Advanced print engines allow for full-color photographic quality, spot varnishes, and precise registration on plastic substrates. Our workflow includes preflight checks and print proofs to ensure the final product matches the intended design and performs reliably in real-world use.

Production planning prioritizes efficiency without sacrificing quality, scheduling runs to align with client timelines and minimizing disruptions. The result is a repeatable process that delivers reliable, color-accurate outcomes across projects of varying scale.

For secure applications, we offer magnetic stripe encoding, barcode printing, and contactless RFID integration using proven standards like MIFARE DESFire. These options are implemented under secure protocols to protect personal or access-related data during encoding and fulfillment.

Our security measures are paired with traceable workflows, and for additional peace of mind we provide warranty and support options that demonstrate our commitment to long-term performance and program continuity. Call 800.835.7919 for technical specifications and encoding options.

When projects require smart card functionality, our team integrates chips and performs rigorous testing to ensure compatibility with access systems and payment-adjacent devices. We validate encoding, read range, and durability to prevent field issues and support end-user satisfaction.

This technical proficiency enables clients to deploy hybrid solutions-where branding and functionality meet-creating products that serve marketing and operational roles simultaneously, delivering high utility and lasting brand presence in daily use.
