Abstract

A product information display tag for providing product information at the forward end of a horizontal product support hook has a mounting portion for attaching the tag to the rearward end of the hook, an elongate intermediate portion to extend over and along the hook and a label holder at the forward end of the intermediate portion. The mounting portion and intermediate portion are formed together as an integral plastic extrusion with a female grip at the forward end of the intermediate portion to attach the label holder. The label holder is formed as a coextrusion of a label holder panel in a rigid plastic material and a bead along one edge of the panel in a flexible plastic to fit in the grip at the forward end of the intermediate portion. The bead forms a hinge at the front end of the tag enabling the label holding panel to be raised and facilitate removal of articles from the hook.
