Five-sided outline
Pentagon swing tags for crest and label shapes
A pentagon swing tag looks different depending on which way up it hangs: point-down it reads as a crest or badge, point-up as a label or house shape. That makes it useful for heritage, quality and award-style branding without the detail of a full shield outline.
Pentagon is not a preset in the Custom Tag Builder, so choose Custom Tag and say which way up it should hang, because that decides where the hole goes. Keep essential copy in the wide part of the shape rather than the point.

Where this format fits
Pentagon Swing Tags uses
Shield and crest styling
A point-down pentagon reads as a crest, which suits heritage, guarantee and provenance messaging.
Label-shaped product tags
Point-up, the outline echoes the classic bottle-label silhouette used across food and drink ranges.
Five-point brand systems
Where a brand already uses a five-sided mark, matching the tag outline removes any competing shape.
Award and quality marks
The outline carries a badge association that a rectangle cannot, which suits certification and award messaging.

Pentagon Swing Tags specification
- Size and proportions
- A bespoke outline is cut to its own profile, so artwork needs bleed that follows the curve and a safe margin that keeps type off the cut line the whole way round.
Artwork and file guidance
Prepare the artwork
Plan the finished format before export
Start from the 65mm pentagon template and fix which way up the tag hangs before placing anything. A point-down crest puts the hole at the top edge; a point-up label puts it at the point.
Hold type inside the widest part of the shape, and keep a crest or badge centred on the vertical axis so the tag looks balanced.

Questions and answers
Questions before you order
Pentagon Swing Tags FAQs
Which way up should a pentagon hang?
Point-up gives a stable flat base and reads as a label; point-down reads as a crest or shield. The hole placement changes with the orientation, so decide before artwork.
How much usable area does a pentagon give?
More than a triangle, less than a hexagon. The flat edges hold type well and only the single point is difficult to use.
Is a pentagon the same as a shield tag?
They overlap. A shield outline usually has curved upper shoulders where a pentagon has straight edges, so ask for a shield if the curve matters.
Does the shape affect the attachment?
Only in where the hole sits. Keep it centred on a flat edge rather than near a point, where the board has least material to resist tearing.
