Kanban-Cover for hanging: kanban card holder to hang on the container rim
The kanban card holder that hooks over the rim of the container, without adhesives or magnets. It holds firmly on the rim, fits in an instant and containers can be stacked even with the card holder fitted. Clear rigid PVC with bevelled edge, in five formats from EC to DIN A5.
Why choose it
Stackable containers
Hung on the rim, it does not obstruct the stacking of Eurobox and crates.
Good grip on the rim
It clips on with a good pincer effect, without adhesives or magnets: you fit and remove it in an instant.
Changed in one movement
The bevelled edge makes it easy to insert and remove cards and documents.
Protected and readable
UV-resistant clear rigid PVC: protects the card and keeps QR and barcodes readable.
Choose it if…
- You use Euroboxes, plastic crates or containers with a rim up to 17 mm.
- The containers must stay stackable.
- You do not want adhesives or magnets on the container.
- You often move the card holder from one container to another.
Choose another solution if…
- You work in an EPA protected area: choose the ESD version Kanban-Cover ESD for hanging →
- The container has no rim: magnetic or adhesive version Kanban-Cover →
- The KLT container already has the label holder recess: KLT-Snapper →

Where the hanging card holder is used
On containers with a free rim:
- Eurobox and plastic crates: the kanban card follows the container and the stack stays stable
- Containers without a label holder recess: the card goes on the container without sticking anything
- Grid containers and basket rims: it also hooks onto wire or sheet-metal rims of the right thickness
- Returnable containers: you remove and refit it without leaving glue residue
For electronics EPAs there is the ESD hanging Kanban-Cover in 1/4 DIN format.
How the kanban card circulates
The card holder is the first step of a simple loop:
Prepare the card
Part number, description, quantity per container, storage location and barcode: you print it on card stock and insert it into the card holder.
View product →It travels with the material
The card stays on the container for as long as the material is needed on the line, protected from dirt and damage.
It returns when the container is empty
The operator removes the card and posts it in the kanban mailbox: this is the reorder signal.
View product →It moves to the board
Whoever handles reordering moves the cards to the kanban or heijunka board and replenishment starts in the right order.
View product →With a scanner you read the barcode or QR code through the sleeve, without removing the card.

It depends on where the card goes. The magnetic or self-adhesive Kanban-Cover attaches to the wall of containers, shelves and machines that have no slot for the card. The hanging one hooks over the edge of Euroboxes and crates, which remain stackable. The angled one slides in with its 90° tab between stacked cartons and packages. The Mega rests on loose material and stays in place under its own weight.
Five, with external dimensions width × height × depth: EC 87 × 55 × 17 mm, DIN A7 110 × 80 × 17 mm, DIN A6 155 × 110 × 17 mm, DIN A5 215 × 155 × 17 mm and 1/4 DIN 215 × 80 × 17 mm.

Yes: the transparent PVC lets you read barcodes and QR codes with a scanner directly on the container.
