Introduction to Silver Foil Sticker Materials
Silver Foil stickers are plastic-based, with a metallic surface.
OneDayPrint offers two variants of Silver Foil stickers; Silver Foil Synthetic, and Silver Foil PVC.
(Silver Chrome PVC is Discontinued)
Silver Foil Synthetic stickers are one of our popular options for premium materials. These are waterproof, and will certainly give a deluxe touch to any item. Besides commercial products, they are highly suitable for pasting on equipment and machinery for a sleek look. This material has a Matte finish and does not come with lamination.
Silver Foil PVC stickers are made from Silver Foil Synthetic stickers with a layer of gloss PVC lamination. This makes them a grade more premium and durable than before, as the lamination allows them to be completely waterproof, weatherproof, oil-resistant, chemical-resistant, scratch-resistant... the perfect choice If you would like your stickers to last longer! This material has a Glossy finish.
Silver Chrome PVC stickers are an option for you to choose from if you prefer your stickers to have a green undertone and be more reflective. These stickers have a brushed-grain metallic surface, with equivalent durability and material dexterity as the Silver Foil Synthetic stickers. These are more commonly used for medals and plaques as the brushed-grain surface mimic polished silver-plated surfaces very well. Silver Chrome stickers are unavailable in the Synthetic variant for quality assurance. This material has a Glossy finish. (DISCONTINUED - We do have the Silver Chrome material (without the lamination) but for quality assurance, we cannot offer it for printing - the printing can be scratched off. However, if it is not an issue for you, or you only need to kiss-cut without any printing on it, let us know )
Before you order...it is important to note that:
- Colours printed onto the silver foil without a white underprint will not appear as the original colour, and instead will have a 10% silvery mix to the final printed sticker.
- Dark colours cannot be printed to the edges, and require a minimum of a 2mm border all round.
- Pale or similar colours (e.g. grey) will take on the colour of the base.
- White ink can be printed on it
