A label is to be wrapped around an adherend after being printed. The adherend has a diameter equal to or smaller than a prescribed diameter. In the label, a base material has a printing surface. An adhesive layer is provided on an opposite side surface of the base material from the printing surface. A release material is bonded to the adhesive layer with a portion of the adhesive layer exposed. The release material has a higher stiffness than the base material. A mark for alignment is to be used when bonding together exposed sections of the adhesive layer or an exposed section of the adhesive layer with the release material in order to form the label into a loop shape. The mark is provided at a position for forming the label in the loop shape having an inner diameter greater than the prescribed diameter.

A tag is configured to be inserted into a product. The tag includes a label portion and an insertion portion. The label portion has a first width. The insertion portion extends from the label portion, has a second width that is less than the first width, and has a length. An elongated wire extends along the length of the insertion portion to at least a part of the label portion. The tag has sufficient rigidity to enable a user to hold the label portion and force the insertion portion into the product. In another aspect, a method of attaching a tag to a product is described. The method includes holding the label portion and forcing the insertion portion into the product.

A tag is configured to be inserted into a product, the tag including a label portion having a first width and an insertion portion. The insertion portion extends from the label portion at a first end of the insertion portion. The insertion portion has a second width that is less than the first width. The insertion portion has a length terminating at an arrow-shaped head at an opposed second end of the insertion portion, the arrow-shaped head comprising a tip and a barb that extends laterally from an elongated wire. The elongated wire extends along the length of the insertion portion to at least a part of the label portion.
