Frequently Asked Questions

What are EAS security tags and how do they work?

EAS tags work with detection systems at retail exits. If someone tries to leave with a tagged item that hasn't been deactivated or removed, an alarm is triggered. This helps reduce theft and improves inventory accuracy.

Here are the main types of security tags:


  1. Hard Tags: Commonly used on clothing and removed at checkout with a special detacher.
  2. Ink Tags: A type of hard tag containing dye that damages merchandise if forcibly removed (usually without electronic technology).
  3. Specialty Tags: Designed for hard-to-tag items like liquor bottles or eyewear, offering custom shapes and high-visibility deterrence.

How do I select the best EAS tag for clothing?

Different apparel items require different tagging solutions. The right tag ensures strong security while avoiding customer discomfort or merchandise damage.

  • T-shirts and Jeans: Use slim, pencil-style tags that are hard to tamper with.
  • Outerwear: Opt for sturdy shell tags built for heavy fabrics.
  • Formalwear: Use lanyards to loop tags through buttonholes or belt loops.
  • Swimwear/Undergarments: Choose hypoallergenic tags that avoid direct skin contact.

What should retailers consider when selecting security tags?

  • System Compatibility: Make sure tags match your AM or RF detection system.
  • Locking Mechanism: Choose between magnetic or mechanical locks.
  • Appearance: Tags should be discreet but effective.
  • Durability: Select tamper-resistant tags that are built to last.

Are clothing security tags reusable?

Yes. Most hard tags using AM or RF technology are reusable and can be detached at checkout using a secure detacher. This helps reduce waste and long-term costs.

What components make up an EAS system

A typical EAS system includes three main components:

  • Detection antennas installed at store exits
  • Security tags or labels attached to merchandise
  • Detachers or deactivators used at checkout

Together these technologies create a layered retail security solution that helps retailers prevent theft while maintaining a seamless shopping experience.
