Header Card Printing: A Simple Solution for Poly Bag Packaging

Custom header card printing, also known as bag topper printing, is an effective and affordable solution for packaging products in plastic bags, clear or otherwise. These cards are perfect for showcasing your brand and essential product details, especially for off-size items such as loofah sponges, children’s toys, kitchen gadgets, and bath items.

Header cards provide a practical place to display key information like the product name, brand, ingredients, pricing, and contact details. You can customize them with a hole for peg hooks or a sombrero-style hole for display racks, making them versatile for retail environments. Our header cards are made from durable, high-quality cardstock and are available in matte, gloss, or high-gloss UV coatings. Plus, we offer an uncoated option for those who prefer to handwrite on their cards.

Common Uses for Header Cards

Header cards are commonly used for:

• Arts and crafts products

• Party supplies

• Jewelry items

• Gift bags

• Small hardware supplies

• Food items (e.g., nuts, grains, snacks)
  They can even be used for special event bags or packaging for promotional giveaways. Custom header cards make a strong first impression and are an excellent choice for sealing and branding poly bags.

Choosing the Right Size for Your Header Card

Custom header cards are an affordable way to market your product while keeping packaging visually appealing. The key to success lies in selecting the right size. A card that’s too small can create unwanted creases, while one that’s too large can appear awkward and unprofessional. Here’s a quick guide to selecting the best size for your needs:

• 3” x 4” (folds to 3” x 2”) – Ideal for small items like candies, dog treats, or hardware (nuts and bolts).

• 4” x 4” (folds to 4” x 2”) – Perfect for food items such as cookies, spices, and trail mix.

• 5” x 5” (folds to 5” x 2.5”) – Great for general-purpose items like party favors, arts and crafts, and hardware supplies (e.g., nails, screws).

• 6” x 5” (folds to 6” x 2.5”) – Versatile for bulky items like apparel, costumes, or holiday masks.

• 8” x 5” (folds to 8” x 2.5”) – Our largest size, perfect for larger products such as children’s toys, kitchen gadgets, and bagged fruits and vegetables.
