Customers often have specific color needs to maintain branding requirements, and we do our best to meet these needs. Because our printing process requires digital files, we cannot match color directly from physical items. 

To reproduce colors accurately, we need your file to include specific CMYK values. When you provide those CMYK values, we can print match the value within a 5% color variance. 

If you have a printed label or sticker that you’d like us to match, reach out to your designer or printer for the CMYK breakdown of that design. Once we have those values, we can apply them to your custom stickers or labels so they are as close as possible to your desired look.

Why We Require Print‑Ready Artwork

Our system is set up for digital production, which means we work from print‑ready artwork files instead of scanning or sampling from physical pieces. Print‑ready files ensure your colors, shapes, and sizing translate perfectly to the final product. 

What is print‑ready artwork?

• Files created in CMYK color mode
• 300 DPI or higher resolution
• Vector formats (AI, EPS, PDF) or layered files preferred
• Includes bleed, cut lines, and safe areas

Not sure if your file is ready to print? Check out our  Artwork Setup Guide for details on preparing your design.

Tips for Accurate Color Results

To help us achieve the best possible color match:

• Provide exact CMYK values for key brand colors.
• Avoid relying on RGB or Pantone values alone—convert them to CMYK first. Often, art that looks bright and neon in RGB can look muted and dull when converted to CMYK. 
• Order a Sample Pack if you’d like to see how certain colors print on different materials. Differences between base material and lamination can affect the appearance of your artwork’s color. 
• Use our Special Instructions box at checkout to note specific color requirements for your order; this is a great place to put specific CMYK values.
