Leather Hang Tag for a Logistics Company in Spain
A Logistics Company approached us with a leather hang tag requirement for the Spain market. The brief was specific: a defined look, a hard launch date and a unit cost that had to survive freight and duty. This case study records what was specified, what went wrong in sampling and how the bulk order was delivered.
The challenge
- A compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped
- Shrinkage that only showed up after the first wash
- MOQ that was quoted per colourway rather than per style

What we specified
| Item | Leather Hang Tag |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Logistics Company |
| Market | Spain |
| Order volume | 20,000 pieces across 6 specifications |
| Base material | PU Leather |
| Standard size | 15 mm Width |
| Finish | Silicone Wash Finish |
| Sampling rounds | 2 |
| Delivery window | 8 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
| Compliance | REACH SVHC Screening |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the specification around PU Leather and locked the tolerance before bulk.
- The finish was moved to Rose Gold Plating after strike-off tests showed better durability.
- A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
- Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
- Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and ratio specification.

Result
- 20,000 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the original quotation.
- Inspection-related rejection stayed under 0.5%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Fix the specification count early. Adding variants after production starts is the most expensive change a client can request.
