We know keeping your stickers looking bright and bold is important. All of our custom stickers are designed with UV protection to help prevent fading from sunlight exposure. Glossy stickers are finished with a UV lamination, while matte stickers are printed with UV ink. Both options are outdoor durable for 12–18 months, but if your design will face direct sunlight often, glossy lamination is the best choice for long-lasting color.

Glossy Stickers for Maximum Durability

If you expect your stickers to be exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, we recommend choosing glossy stickers. The UV lamination provides an additional protective barrier, keeping your colors more vibrant over time compared to matte stickers. This makes glossy finishes especially popular for outdoor gear, vehicles, water bottles, or any surface that gets a lot of sun.

Matte Stickers with UV Ink

Matte stickers are a great choice when you want a smooth, non-reflective look. While they hold up well, direct sunlight exposure may cause designs to fade slightly faster than laminated glossy stickers. Matte finishes work beautifully for subtle, modern branding applications or indoor uses.
