Custom Header Card

Header cards, also sometimes called bag toppers, are versatile little tools used in product packaging. These custom cards typically consist of a rectangular piece of cardstock with a hole punched at the top for hanging.

They help keep products secure inside their packaging, especially for items in clear plastic bags. This adds a layer of protection and prevents items from shifting around during transport or display. It provides a space to showcase your brand logo, product name, or key information, grabbing attention on store shelves or display racks.

Picking the right material matters! For a luxurious, high-impact look with bright colors, go for 16 pt Gloss Cardstock. For. a classic, sophisticated feel with easy-to-read text? Choose 16 pt Matte Cardstock.

Need a glossy front for color but a writable back? 14 pt High Gloss UV (front) Uncoated (back). That sounds like a great option. Budget-friendly projects can choose 14 pt Matte Cardstock for a simple look. Consider the desired look, function, and budget to pick your perfect material!
