    About our paper stickers

    Our premium paper labels are made using quality paper stock. They are both cheaper than our polypropylene labels and more environmentally friendly. Like all of our products, these paper labels are highly customisable and can be supplied on sheets, rolls, or as individually cut stickers.

    We have three different paper labelling materials: matt paper, gloss paper, or martele textured paper. All three are backed with permanent adhesive as standard, and low-tack is also available for temporary applications. Your self-adhesive labels can be printed in any size or shape, and we can use your uploaded label artwork or our design team can create artwork for you.

    Once your paper labels are printed, you can add matt or gloss lamination. It costs a bit extra, but it makes the labels more durable and gives them some water resistance. Unfortunately, our paper labels cannot be made completely waterproof. If you need something that can withstand constant exposure to water and other liquids, check out our waterproof labels.

    Why use our paper labels?

    Our paper labels are a great choice for anybody looking to balance affordability and durability. They are our more budget-friendly option, but they are nevertheless reliable and can be used in a variety of ways.

    For instance, the almost rustic look of some digitally printed paper stickers and labels makes them ideal for using on artisan goods like wine, candles, jams or sauces. A textured paper label on a bottle of red wine might evoke sophistication. A gloss paper label on a jar of hot sauce could suggest boldness and brightness. Using an eco-friendly sticker as a label can also signal that a company is environmentally conscious; another way of appealing to certain customers.

    You could also take advantage of paper labels’ low cost and order some for your personal use. Matt paper labels are easy to write on, making them a great option for address labels or gift tags. Textured paper labels could add an up-market touch to seat placements and party favours at weddings. You could also use gloss paper labels for home organisation, although we would suggest adding lamination if you intend to label items that often get handled or exposed to water.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Yes, you can upload your own artwork or take advantage of our free professional design service. Labels can be printed in any size or shape, and we support single designs or multiple designs per order.

We offer matt, gloss, and martele textured paper options. Matt and gloss labels can be finished with an optional lamination for extra durability and water resistance, while martele labels come unlaminated to preserve their texture.

Paper labels are not fully waterproof, but applying a gloss or matt lamination can add some water resistance. For constant exposure to water or liquids, we recommend our waterproof labels instead.

Labels can be supplied on sheets, on rolls, or as individually cut singles. They're ideal for everything from product packaging and branding to address labels, wedding favours, and home organisation. Eco-conscious and cost-effective, they’re also vegan-friendly and printed using high-definition CMYK technology.
