Are metallic stickers waterproof and durable outdoors?

Yes. Our metallic stickers are printed on durable vinyl and are waterproof. For extra abrasion resistance, we can add a protective over-laminate

What metallic finishes are available?

Gold and silver are standard. We can also produce other metallic tones (e.g., copper) on request, in matt or gloss finishes.

Can you print on clear vinyl as well as white?

Absolutely. We print on both clear and white vinyl. Clear is great for “no-label look” designs; we can add a white underprint where you need solid, opaque colours.

What sizes and shapes can I have?

Any custom shape—circles, squares, or contour-cut to your artwork—up to 300 mm on the shortest edge. If you’re unsure on cut lines, send your file and we’ll set them up.

Which adhesive options do you offer?

Choose removable (for short-term use) or permanent (strong, long-term hold). Tell us the surface (glass, plastic, cardboard, etc.) and we’ll recommend the best option.

Metallic stickers, in gold, silver and other colours, using foils.

The foils are available in a shiny (mirrored) or matt finish to suit your design requirements. The gold/silver foils are transferred onto the surface of the self adhesive print media to create the stickers.

Metallic sticker printing is a process whereby various spot colour foils are transferred on to the vinyl, rather than printed using a full colour process.

Some of the best metallic sticker designs are produced when there are only 2 colours in the artwork. This helps with the alignment of the colours, allowing the images to have a greater impact. We can produce stickers with up to 3 colours with one of the colours being metallic.

Choice of Metallic Colours

Our metallic stickers can be custom-printed using one of the following colours; silver, gold, red, blue chrome, matt gold, matt silver and copper. Choose from up to 2 more additional standard colours (although we recommend only one other colour as a maximum).

Whilst there is no end to the uses for these stickers we have found that gold and silver foils on transparent vinyl have become very popular and are extremely stylish. Our sales team can advise you at any time during your artwork design process. Our customers are increasingly choosing the matt and gold finish as these look particularly strong when used against black backgrounds (obviously this is subject to your artwork).

The chrome silver and chrome gold offer a very shiny mirrored effect finish, which could be deemed to add a more luxury feel to packaging.

Adhesive

These vinyl stickers currently come with a choice of two adhesive types: Permanent and Removable.

Removable adhesive has 3 times less bond than permanent adhesive and is more easily removed without leaving adhesive residue.

Permanent adhesive bonds over the lifespan of the sticker and can be difficult to remove after it has been in place for many months or years. If a permanent vinyl sticker has been in place for some time it will only come off by applying heat (e.g. a hairdryer) to them. The heat loosens up the adhesive allowing the sticker to be peeled off easily.

Removable stickers can be removed from a surface quite easily, however over time the removable property diminishes and the sticker becomes like a permanent sticker and more difficult to remove.

Number of Designs

To save you money, we now allow you to split your order over multiple designs, but only if the dimensions of each design is the same.

This will allow you to maximise your quantity discount and avoid keep on paying our minimum order charge.

By default we will split your order evenly over the number of designs (e.g. for 2 designs over 1000 stickers we will print each design 500 times).

Large Orders

Large volumes of stickers or very large sizes can be screenprinted with special metallic inks, please contact us to discuss this further.

Common uses of Metallic Stickers include (but not limited to):

Candles & Cosmetics

Add a premium look to jars, tins and compacts with gold or silver accents. Metallic vinyl gives a consistent shine and works perfectly for small logos, borders and ingredient lists. Choose matt for a soft, luxury feel or gloss for extra pop. Removable or permanent adhesive options suit glass, aluminium and coated cartons.

Bottles & jars

Stand out on shelves with metallic labels for sauces, spirits, oils and preserves. We can add a white underprint on clear vinyl wherever you need solid colour, keeping other areas transparent for a ‘no-label’ look. Waterproof materials and optional over-laminate help your branding stay sharp in fridges and kitchens.

Electronics branding

Add crisp metallic logos, rating plates or serials to housings and cases. Our metallic films cut cleanly for fine detail, and we can personalise with QR codes or variable numbers. Choose permanent adhesive for textured plastics and metal, or removable for temporary branding on demo units and prototypes.

Promotional stickers

Make campaigns pop with shiny logos, badges and limited-offer seals. Metallic vinyl grabs attention on packaging, mailers and giveaways, and it’s tough enough for outdoor flyering. We can produce any shape, from tiny hand-outs to larger decals up to 300 mm. Choose matt for a premium sheen or gloss for mirror-like punch.

Event fairs & shows

Perfect for swag, badge upgrades and booth branding. Metallic finishes catch the light on counters and plinths, while small hand-out stickers keep your logo in pockets long after the show. Fast turnarounds and short runs mean you can tailor designs to each event without over-ordering.

Product labelling

Add premium cues to jars, bottles, boxes and sleeves. We can combine metallic areas with a white underprint to keep text crisp and colours solid, even on clear vinyl.

Exclusive product branding

Elevate limited editions and members-only ranges with metallic crests, seals and edition numbers. Matt metallics deliver subtle luxury; gloss gives a high-shine reveal. We can add variable data (QRs, serials) for authenticity checks and personalise sizes to fit cartons, rigid boxes and sleeves.

Luxury goods

Add a refined finish to premium packaging, gift sets and accessories. Metallic borders, monograms and badges signal quality while resisting scuffs in transit. We’ll advise the best adhesive for your substrate and supply on sheets or singles to suit your packing line and fulfilment flow.
