Arch Crown’s 2024 Tag & Label Catalog Is Out
The book offers solutions for all retailers’ price tagging needs, the company said.

Highlights of the 2024 book include custom thermal transfer tags with “crisp” reproductions of a store’s logo, pricing, and descriptions. Thermal tags are available with out or without barcodes.
The book also features Poly-Lam thermal transfer computer string and barbell style tags, which Arch Crown said are stronger than polyester and Kimdura and provide superior print quality.
The new DT396 direct thermal polypropylene tags, which don’t require ribbons, are available in eight colors with adhesive-free shanks.
The catalog also showcases custom plastic gift cards, which are available in three formats: print only (for stores with no point-of-sale system); with variable data (for stores with a POS system); and with a magnetic strip (for stores using a POS system and can swipe cards).
Custom molded plastic tags are available, as well as Secure-Lock “not returnable if removed” molded tags, which Arch Crown said are ideal for internet sales.
Once closed, the tag cannot be reopened unless the cord is cut, helping to minimize unauthorized returns.
Molded tags are available in custom and pre-printed styles.
In addition, Arch Crown said its barcode packages include everything retailers need to print and scan barcode tags using their own computers.
The GoDEX GE300 printer, DataTagger and BarTender label design software for Windows offers benefits of thermal transfer printing to businesses that currently do not have barcode printing capability.
The Honeywell Voyager 1250g single-line scanner is simple to set up and provides “aggressive” reading of linear barcodes.
Tech support is available from authorized factory trained technicians.
