19 Aug Solid Colour and Digital Printed Stickers and Decals
When it comes to stickers and decals, there are two ways they can be produced. The first is using inlet printers to digitally print a design onto vinyl. The second is by cutting shapes and designs onto solid coloured vinyl using computer software.
More than one colour or gradient in a design indicates that it is time to use digitally printed stickers and decals. Such as when brand colours – or specific colours – are required; or to create a more photographic design.
The WSG logo – which can be seen above – is an example of a digitally printed sticker. To do this the team utilised multiple brand colours printed onto a single sheet of vinyl, which was then cut into shape. The only downside to digitally printed vinyl is the risk of fading over time if not treated with a laminate. Meaning that this method isn’t as suitable for outdoor use as a single colour vinyl would be.
Single colour vinyl are stickers and decals referred to as solid colour cut. This process involves cutting the sticker into a single sheet of vinyl using a specialised cutter ran through computer software; no printer necessary. To ensure that no excess vinyl remains the stickers are then weeded. Due to the lack of ink involved this method is more likely to withstand the weathering of digitally printed stickers.
At WSG we stock over 900+ colours of vinyl with different finishes including chrome, matt, satin, and gloss. We also offer digitally printed and vinyl cut stickers, as well as decals at competitive prices and the highest quality.
