Your choice of sticker paper will depend on what the label will be exposed to:- White premium sticker paper is normally used on labels that will be primarily indoors. It comes in gloss or matte coating.
- BOPP comes in clear, white, or silver metallic colors. This material is recommended for liquid products that will be refrigerated and exposed to oil. It's waterproof and oil and chemical-resistant.
- White Vellum and White/Cream Laid Texture are normally seen on wine bottles and used for their rustic texture. It is best stored in a refrigerator. It lasts about 4 hours in an ice bucket and does not have the oil and chemical resistance of BOPP.
Enhance the overall look with glamorous or elegant finishes.
The white paper sticker comes in gloss, matte, or high-gloss UV coating.- Gloss provides a reflective shine on the surface and protects the design from scuff and scratches.
- High-gloss UV has a higher shine and vibrance that allows colors and details to stand out from afar.
- Matte gives an elegant, soft touch to the colors on your design and makes text easier to read.
Outdoor-friendly white vinyl and refrigerator-friendly BOPP comes in matte or gloss coating.
The textured materials come either uncoated for a writable surface or matte for the least glare and additional protection. For more affordable options, you can check out the cheap custom stickers.

Top Four Print Guidelines
These printing guidelines ensure your personalized stickers don't encounter any issues or won't require any changes before proceeding to production:1. Convert your artwork's color to CMYK.
Like any other professional printing company, all orders are produced in CMYK or full-color printing. Make sure the file's color is in CMYK and not in RGB before uploading.2. Ensure an image resolution of 300 dots per inch (DPI).
Make sure all images on your file are at 300 DPI at full size. Stretching or enlarging an image to fit the canvas will reduce the resolution and result in a blurry or pixelated print.3. Review the bleed on your artwork.
Make sure your design extends to the canvas or paper's edge so that no detail is cut off upon printing. The bleed area will indicate how far your design should reach to prevent white lines from appearing on print.Make sure all sticker files include an additional 0.125 inches of bleed on the edge.?To create your artwork within the exact measurements, use our online design tool or download any of our available templates.
4. Submit a file in any of the prescribed file formats.
PDF is the ideal file format for printing, but we also accept JPG, TIF, EPS.Head to your chosen sticker type to begin this listed process. Input your design’s feature before creating a design online or uploading a file directly on the site.
