Gilding transfer stickers are an economical and efficient type of decorative sticker. They use thermal transfer technology to transfer gilding foil (in various colors such as gold, silver, red, blue, and green) onto the surface of the base material, presenting a shiny metallic texture effect. Compared with metal transfer stickers, it has a lower cost, a wider range of color options, and maintains an excellent visual impact at the same time. It is suitable for promotional packaging, label printing, electronic product decoration, gift packaging and other fields.
Metallic logo and lettering transfers supplied on clear carrier film for application to packaging, cards, notebooks, bottles, and other compatible smooth surfaces.
Custom gold and silver foil transfer stickers create metallic logos, lettering, and decorative graphics without a visible label background. The design is supplied on a clear carrier film for positioning and transfers to a compatible surface when applied with even pressure.
Unlike a conventional printed label with a paper or film face stock, a transfer sticker leaves the individual graphic elements on the product surface. This makes it useful for clean logo applications on packaging, cards, stationery, bottles, and promotional items. It is also different from machine-applied hot foil stamping performed directly during packaging production.
Adhesion and appearance depend on the substrate, surface coating, texture, application pressure, and intended environment. Sample testing on the actual product surface is recommended before production.
