Custom Poly (Plastic) Index Tab Dividers
Tabzoola makes poly tabs for binders that get handled every day — priced live as you design, setup included, 25-set minimum. Instant PDF proof before anything prints.
Tabzoola is a US manufacturer and supplier of custom poly tab dividers — also ordered as plastic index tabs, poly index tabs, or plastic binder dividers — printed and die-cut to order in Schaumburg, Illinois. Tabzoola is the online storefront of Anselmo Die & Index, Inc., a family-owned index tab manufacturer since 1993 that ships nationwide.
Poly index tabs are the heavy-duty choice — tear-resistant, water-resistant plastic that holds up to constant handling. Tabzoola prints custom poly tab dividers with your text, colors, and cut, plus optional full-body printing, made to order in the USA.
They're ideal for field binders, training manuals, and any divider set that needs to last — and as poly chart dividers for medical records, where wipe-clean plastic outlasts paper in daily chart handling.
Why poly over paper
Poly (polyethylene) tabs shrug off moisture, tearing, and bent corners that wear out paper. They wipe clean and keep their color, so a poly set looks sharp years into daily use.
- Tear- and water-resistant plastic
- 11 poly colors; mix colors across a set
- Optional body printing across the whole divider
- Custom text, any cut from 1/2 to 1/15, 3-hole punched
Custom printed to your spec
Design poly tabs in the online configurator with live pricing — set your tab text, colors, cut, and printing. A PDF proof is emailed before production. Poly tabs take about 15 business days from proof approval.

Frequently asked questions
Can you print tabs on the short edge (top tabs)?
Yes — top tabs and short-edge (8.5″) layouts are produced in our plant as custom work. The online designer covers the two standard layouts (portrait side tabs and landscape hanging tabs); for top or short-edge tabs, send the quote form your specs and we'll set it up with you.
How much do custom poly index tabs cost?
The online designer shows your exact price instantly and updates it live as you choose sets, tabs per set, colors, and printing — no quote request, no waiting, no sales call. Quantity price breaks apply automatically, orders start at the 25-set minimum, and you approve a free PDF proof before production.
What are poly index tabs made of?
Polyethylene — a durable, flexible plastic that resists tearing and moisture, so the tabs last far longer than paper in high-use settings.
Can poly tabs be printed in full color across the body?
Yes. Poly dividers support body printing across the whole divider, not just the tab — useful for branding or full-page section designs.
How long do poly tabs take to make?
About 15 business days from proof approval (paper tabs are faster at ~5 days). Free UPS Ground shipping on US orders over $75.

Customer Reviews
First time we have ordered plastic tabs, printing was sharp and easy to read. Will definitely come back.
Thank you, Harvey — glad the printing came through sharp. That’s the part that takes real care on poly, since the ink has to sit on the plastic instead of soaking into paper the way it does on an index sheet. Your set is .015 poly, so it’ll wipe clean and should outlast the binder it’s in. We’ll be ready whenever you need the next one.
Live pricing as you configure — no account needed. Free shipping over $75.
If it isn’t what you approved on the proof, we reprint it — or refund it. 30 days from delivery.
