Customise the type

Standard

Available with the following materials and finishes:

Waterproof polypropylene material

Highly durable plastic vinyl material. Tear, scratch and UV resistant. Ideal if liquid contact is possible, or you just want high durability. Recyclable.

Available with these finishes:

  • Uncoated – No lamination, giving a middle-ground finish between gloss and matt.
  • Gloss lamination – A shiny finish with even more durability thanks to the laminate coating.
  • Matt lamination – A silky finish. Also with more durability due to the lamination.

Both lamination options add a 10% additional charge.

Uncoated
Gloss Finish
Matt
Paper material

Premium paper stock that’s not waterproof or as strong as vinyl, but still holds up well to light abrasion such as being regularly handled. It’s also a lower cost than waterproof polypropylene. Recyclable and biodegradable.

Available with these finishes:

  • Gloss finish – Shiny
  • Matt finish – Silky.
🞬

Clear

Printed on transparent waterproof plastic with the following options:

Choose the print direction

Normal print has the adhesive on the back and the design on the front. Reverse print has the design on the adhesive side, so it can be stuck onto a transparent surface (like a window) and show the design on the opposite side of the glass. If in doubt, normal print is most likely what you require.

Choose the adhesive

Standard adhesive has a strong hold designed for permanent use. Low tack adhesive is better for temporary use as it’s easier to remove.

Would you like white ink?

Coloured inks printed on clear plastic can be semi-opaque. With white ink, we’ll print a layer of white underneath the printed parts of your design to make them more vibrant. You should also choose this option if you want any parts of your design printed in visible white (such as white text).

Choose a finish
  • Standard finish – No lamination, giving a middle-ground finish between gloss and matt.

Choose a supply format

On rolls

Supplied on reels around 76mm cardboard tube cores (if you need a different core size please contact us).

Hand apply – No specific set up of the stickers/labels on the roll. Best for applying by hand.

Machine apply – Explain the required orientation/leading edge, winding, number of labels per roll, max roll diameter and anything else you need. This is very important if you’re putting the rolls into a mechanical label applicator. If we need any clarification we’ll contact you.

On sheets

Choose from the standard sizes of DL, A6, A5 or A4. We’ll fit as many of the stickers/labels as we can on each sheet. If a size is unavailable it means your sticker/label is too big to fit.

  • Orientation/leading edge
  • Winding
  • Number of labels per roll
  • Max roll diameter
  • or anything else you need

You can also enter the specific number of rolls you require, and we’ll divide the overall sticker/label quantity by the number of rolls (so if you order 1000 labels and 5 rolls, each roll will have 200 labels).

Do I need this?

These settings are very important if you’re putting the rolls into a mechanical label applicator, as the rolls must be compatible with your equipment (which can vary).

If we need any clarification about what you’ve entered, we’ll contact you before we print.

Clear Sticker Options

Clear stickers are made from transparent vinyl. Because they don’t have a solid background like standard opaque stickers, only their design is visible—the rest of the sticker blends in with the surface it is stuck to. This makes them ideal for branding, packaging, labeling, and more!

Types of Clear Stickers

Standard Clear Stickers

Standard clear stickers are printed directly onto transparent vinyl without a white backing. This means any white areas in the design will remain clear, and colours will have a slightly translucent effect. They are best suited for:
  • Bold, solid-colour designs
  • Products with white packaging
  • Application on glass or plastic

White Ink Stickers

White ink stickers use an additional layer of white ink under or within the design to create opaque colours and gradients. This allows for a combination of transparent and solid elements, making the design more visible on dark or textured surfaces. White ink stickers are great for:
  • Dark or coloured backgrounds
  • High-contrast designs for branding and packaging
  • Premium product labels

Reverse Printing

Reverse printing allows stickers to be placed inside a clear surface, such as a window, while remaining visible from the outside. This creates the illusion of a non-adhesive printed sticker while protecting the design from weather and wear, making it a durable option for uses like:
  • Storefront decals
  • Car window stickers
  • Promotional signage

What Are Clear Stickers?

Clear stickers are high-resolution, transparent vinyl stickers or decals designed to blend seamlessly with any surface. Unlike opaque stickers, they allow the background to show through, creating a clean, professional look. Clear stickers are made from transparent, durable polypropylene, ensuring long-lasting performance, and printed using state-of-the-art thermal offset transfer technology for crisp detail and vibrant colours.

Benefits of Clear Stickers

Clear stickers offer a clean, professional appearance that makes your design look like it’s printed directly onto the surface. Because they have no solid background, they keep the focus on the design itself. Their versatility makes them suitable for a range of applications, from windows and product packaging to electronics, glassware, and mirrors. Clear stickers hold up well in both indoor and outdoor environments, making them a reliable choice for branding, labeling, promotional materials, and more.
Popular Uses for Clear Stickers Clear stickers are a popular choice for business and personal uses alike, such as:

  • Packaging & Branding: Enhances product presentation without detracting from the product itself.
  • Product Labeling: Provides a minimalist, high-end aesthetic. Used for ingredient lists, branding, and compliance labels.
  • Promotional & Marketing Materials: Creates eye-catching, modern promotional materials for businesses. Perfect for event giveaways, logo branding on merchandise, and guerrilla marketing.
  • Custom Gifts & Crafting: Adds a personal touch to DIY projects, gift wrapping, and wedding favours. Works well for customised stationery, scrapbooking, and small business packaging.
  • Storefront Window Displays: Reverse-printed clear stickers are designed for inside-glass applications. Ideal for displaying business hours, promotions, and branding.

Design Considerations for Clear Stickers

Clear stickers take on the colour and texture of the surface they’re applied to, which can impact visibility and overall design clarity. Choosing the right design elements ensures your stickers remain legible and effective, whether applied to packaging, glass, or other smooth surfaces. You must consider:

  • Surface Colour & Texture: Because clear stickers allow the background to show through, dark or textured surfaces can affect readability. Using high-contrast colours or white ink ensures the design remains visible and sharp.
  • Visibility: Applying white ink beneath coloured elements creates vibrant, opaque designs that stand out, especially on dark or reflective surfaces where standard printing may appear faded or translucent.
  • Negative Space: Leaving areas unprinted can create a minimalist, high-end effect, allowing text and logos to integrate seamlessly with the surface. This works well for geometric designs, typography-based stickers, and branding with a modern aesthetic.
  • Colour Combinations: Lighter colours can appear less vibrant on transparent stickers without a white ink layer. Opting for bold hues with strong contrast ensures the design remains clear and impactful.
  • Transparency & Readability: While clear stickers offer a unique aesthetic, balancing transparency with legibility is key. Testing designs on different backgrounds before printing helps ensure they achieve the desired look.

Factors to Consider When Ordering Clear Stickers

When ordering clear stickers, consider the following:
  • Sticker Size & Shape: Clear stickers can be cut to any size and shape. Rectangular stickers are ideal for product labels on bottles, jars, and boxes, while circular stickers work well for logo seals. Custom die-cut options follow the exact shape of your artwork for a distinctive, professional finish.
  • Sticker Adhesive: The type of adhesive affects how and where the sticker can be used. Permanent adhesive offers strong, long-lasting adhesion for branding and outdoor use. Removable adhesive is ideal for promotions and temporary labelling. Repositionable adhesive makes it easy to adjust placement without losing adhesion.
  • Material Durability: Monomeric vinyl is best for short-term applications on flat surfaces. Polymeric vinyl is more flexible and durable, making it suitable for curved or textured surfaces. The right material choice helps maintain the sticker’s quality and adhesion.
  • Application Surface: Clear stickers take on the colour and texture of the surface they are applied to, so consider how they will look in different environments.
  • Weather & Wear Resistance: If stickers will be exposed to outdoor elements, choosing waterproof, UV-resistant, and scratch-resistant options ensures long-lasting durability. This is particularly important for storefront decals and promotional stickers placed on windows or vehicles.
