Are your labels permanent?

Yes! Our labels are not made for easy removal. That being said, you will likely be able to remove them using common sticker removal methods like rubbing alcohol or added heat.

Does label printing come on sheets?

Our labels and stickers come on kiss cut sheets or as cut-out shapes.

We may also be able to produce your labels on a roll. Please submit a custom quote request to learn more about roll labels.

Is there perforation between each label?

Cut-to-size labels are cut into the exact shape of your label. They will not have any border or perforation. Kiss-cut labels can include perforation to make separating stickers easy. Please let us know if you want perforation.

What label shapes can you make?

Our labels come in many different shapes. We offer rectangle, square, rounded corner, and circle stickers and labels. In addition to these choices, we also offer custom die-cut stickers that can be made in any shape you can imagine. With our die-cut stickers and labels, the possibilities are endless!

Can I write on my labels?

Our uncoated and kraft label stocks are perfect for writing on. We do not recommend picking our glossy stock if you plan to write on your labels.

Can you print on the back of labels? On the liner?

Unfortunately, we can only print on the front facestock of our stickers and labels.

Can you print variable data?

Yes! We can use variable data to print addresses, product names, and any other information you need on each sticker or label.

Will my labels adhere to everything?

Our stickers and labels will adhere to most smooth, clean, dry, hard surfaces. If your surface is very textured, dirty, or damp, our labels and stickers may have trouble sticking.

Can you add a coating to the labels?

We can add a soft touch satin finish coating to the glossy label stock. If you would like to use this coating, you must pick the glossy label stock.

Do you have water-resistant options?

Our house stocks are made with all biodegradable materials, so they cannot be made waterproof. If you are interested in making stickers that will be waterproof, please submit a custom quote request to discuss options.

Are there special requirements for food labels or cosmetic labels?

Yes! Both food and cosmetics require specific labeling to meet government regulations. All ingredients must be listed for the safety of consumers. Please read the FDA’s Food Labeling Guide and Cosmetic Labeling Regulations for more information. Our facilities cannot produce food-safe labels that can be applied directly to food.

Can you print white ink on labels?

Yes! We can print white ink on your kraft labels. This is perfect for transparent or kraft materials. White ink ensures opaque, vibrant colors and can create striking designs on its own.

Are your labels safe for outdoor use?

Our house stocks are made with all biodegradable materials, so they will not withstand long term outdoor use. If you are interested in making stickers that will last outdoors, please submit a custom quote request to discuss options.

Do your label prices include setup costs?

For the most part, yes! There may be additional die making charges if you have ordered a custom shape. Our default shapes include all costs. For the best price on die-cut shapes, please submit a custom quote request.

Can I design a label with a border?

Yes! Our cutting machines are very precise and can accommodate designs with borders. Please make sure to include the border in your sticker design. We cannot add one to your already complete design.

Can you print foil on labels?

Yes! We can add embossed or debossed foil designs onto your stickers. We can also print with metallic inks, which is a great 2D alternative to our foil-pressing option.

Are your labels laptop and smartphone safe?

Our labels can be placed on laptops and smartphones, but please be aware that they can be challenging to remove. Our labels are meant to be permanent.
