There are all sorts of different types of sticker label materials, and each one is perfect for a specific purpose. Whether you need something for indoor use or outdoor applications, there’s a material that will fit the bill! Here are five of the most common types of custom sticker label materials, and what they’re best suited for.
1. Matte paper
Matte paper is one of the most popular types of sticker label materials, and it’s perfect for a variety of applications. It is not waterproof, so should not be used outdoors or in the shower. But paper labels make up for that by being wonderfully textured, matte and biodegradable, making it a perfect eco-friendly alternative to traditional stickers. So you can feel good about using it knowing that it won’t damage the environment.
2. White vinyl
White vinyl is the most popular choice for sticker labels, and it’s often used for outdoor applications of all kinds. It is laminated to be waterproof and weather-resistant, so it can withstand the elements without peeling or fading. The white base also allows you to let your creativity run free and create vibrant colours.
3. Transparent film
Transparent film is perfect for labels that need to be applied to glass or other smooth, clear surfaces. It’s see-through, so your labels will blend in seamlessly with your product packaging, creating that premium “no label” look. Additionally, transparent film is durable and resistant to tearing, making it a great choice for high-quality labels.
4. Holographic foil
Holographic foil is a unique metallic material that’s perfect for labels that need to stand out. It’s eye-catching and attention-grabbing, so it’s ideal for products that need to make a big impression. Additionally, holographic foil is waterproof and tear-resistant, making it a great choice for labels that will be exposed to the elements.
5. Static cling
Static cling is a unique material that’s perfect for temporary labels. Is does not use any glue, but stickers to flat, smooth surfaces using static only. This means you can apply them to the inside or the outside of windows! The material in itself is durable, but we recommend them mainly for short-term uses due to the lack of adhesive.
