What makes a sticker kiss-cut

Kiss-cut means the sticker is cut without cutting through the backing liner.

Our Kiss-Cut Stickers use two cuts. The outer piece is die-cut to shape through the material and backing liner. The sticker itself is kiss-cut through the material and adhesive, without cutting through the backing liner. This leaves the surrounding material and liner intact around the sticker.

The surrounding area can carry additional design or information, such as a logo, social handle, or care instructions.

Common uses

Business cards, logo stickers, and elevated packaging. They work anywhere the extra space around the sticker is useful for branding, social handles, or contact information.

Kiss-cut stickers are available in a range of sticker materials, including PP White Vinyl, PET Holographic, PET Mirror, PET Glitter, PET Brushed Aluminum, PET Prismatic, PP Pixie Dust, and Kraft Paper. Not every material pairs with every finish. For example, Kraft Paper is typically left uncoated rather than laminated. See Materials and Finishes for the full properties of each.
