Standard Tack vs High Tack Stickers
At The Foil Printing Co., we offer two adhesive types for foil stickers, depending on how and where they’ll be used. Our foil stickers can be supplied with either standard tack or high tack adhesive, depending on where they’ll be applied and how strong the bond needs to be.
Standard Tack is the option we recommend for most foil sticker projects. It works well for everyday uses such as product packaging, shipping boxes, tissue paper, envelopes, hang tags, promotional stickers, and general branding. It gives a reliable hold on clean, smooth surfaces while still being easy to apply.
High Tack uses a stronger adhesive and is better suited to more demanding surfaces or situations where the sticker needs to stay firmly in place. This can include slightly textured packaging, rougher materials, curved surfaces, or products that will be handled more often.
How to Choose the Right Foil Sticker
With different adhesive options, sticker uses, and foil colors available, it can be tricky to know which setup will suit your design best. A lot depends on where the sticker will be applied, how much handling it needs to withstand, and whether the foil is being used for branding, packaging, promotion, or a standout product detail.
Our team works with foil stickers every day, so the guide below is based on the combinations we know tend to work well in real use. Use it as a starting point for choosing the right adhesive, foil color, and finish for your stickers, whether they’re being used on packaging, product labels, shipping boxes, envelopes, retail items, or promotional materials.

What Makes Our Foil Stickers Different
Foil stickers need to do more than look good on screen. They need to peel easily, apply firmly, suit the surface they’re being used on, and keep the foil detail clear once they’re on packaging, products, envelopes, or promotional materials.
At The Foil Printing Co., we focus specifically on foil printing, which gives us more control over how your stickers look and feel. Alongside our full range of metallic foil colors, we also offer two paper sticker options: standard tack for general use and high tack for more demanding surfaces.
We can produce foil stickers in square, rectangle, circle, or custom shapes, with black or CMYK print, soft-touch lamination on the front, and either kiss-cut sheets or individually die-cut stickers depending on how you want to use them.
Sticker Sizes & Custom Shapes
Our foil stickers can be made to virtually any size or shape, including rectangles, squares, circles, and fully custom outlines.
All of our foil stickers are cut in-house, allowing us to create shapes that suit your product, packaging, logo, or artwork. Whether you need a label for a bottle, a seal for a box, a sticker for tissue paper, or a custom shape that follows your branding, we’ll work to match the design as closely as possible.
Custom shapes are especially useful when the sticker needs to feel like part of the product itself, rather than a standard label added afterward.
Kiss Cut vs Die Cut Stickers
We offer both kiss-cut and die-cut foil stickers, giving you control over how your stickers are supplied and used.
Kiss-cut stickers are cut through the sticker material but not the backing paper. This means the sticker sits on a larger backing sheet, making it easier to peel and apply. They’re a good choice for packaging runs, bulk use, or stickers that need to be handled quickly.
Die-cut stickers are cut all the way through both the sticker material and backing paper, creating individual stickers in the exact shape of your design. These work well for giveaways, product inserts, retail packaging, or any project where the sticker needs to feel like a finished standalone piece.
Which should you choose?
-
Choose kiss-cut (sheets) for easier peeling, storage, and application.
-
Choose die-cut (individual stickers) for a cleaner individual finish and stronger presentation.
Black or CMYK Print
Your foil stickers can be printed in black or full CMYK color before the foil is applied. Black print works well for clean logo stickers, simple labels, and minimal designs, while CMYK gives you more freedom for color backgrounds, product artwork, packaging designs, and branded visuals.
Foil can then be used to highlight the parts of the sticker that need extra impact, such as logos, product names, borders, seals, icons, or limited-edition details.
Why Soft-Touch Lamination is Used
All foil stickers include soft-touch lamination on the front. This creates a smooth, consistent surface for the foil to adhere to, helping us achieve clean, reliable results.
The foil is applied with heat and pressure onto the prepared surface, so the lamination plays an important role in helping the metallic detail apply cleanly while leaving the rest of the design untouched.
It also gives the finished sticker a smooth feel, which works well for packaging, product labels, and branded materials that customers will handle up close.
Where Can Foil Stickers Be Applied?
Foil stickers work best on clean, smooth surfaces such as boxes, bottles, jars, envelopes, tissue paper, hang tags, and most standard packaging materials.
For more challenging surfaces, such as textured packaging, curved products, or materials that will be handled more often, high tack adhesive may be the better option. Standard tack is suitable for most everyday sticker uses, while high tack gives a stronger bond when the surface or application needs it.
Matching the adhesive to the surface helps your stickers apply neatly and stay in place.
How Foil Behaves on Stickers
Foil is applied to specific parts of your sticker design, creating a reflective finish that stands out against the printed background. Because stickers are often small, foil usually works best on clear, simple details rather than very fine artwork.
Logos, icons, product names, seals, borders, and short highlight messages tend to work well in foil. Tiny text, thin lines, and intricate patterns can be harder to reproduce cleanly, especially on smaller sticker sizes.
For the best result, we recommend using bold foil details, allowing enough space around cut edges, and keeping the design clear enough to be read once the sticker has been applied.
Sticker Artwork Supplied by You or Designed by Us
You can supply your own print-ready sticker artwork, or our team can design your foil stickers for you from a brief.
If you already have artwork, we’ll check the setup before proofing to make sure the print artwork, foil layer, cutline, bleed, and safe zones are clear. If you need design support, we can work from your logo, brand colors, packaging style, product details, or campaign idea to create artwork that is ready for foil sticker printing.
Can I have more than 1 foil color on my foil art stickers?
Unfortunately, we are unable to add more than 1 foil shade to a single sticker, however if you would like multiple sticker designs printed in different foil shades, you’re welcome to configure each design separately, selecting a different foil color per batch.
Can I combine print and foil on my foil personalized stickers?
Yes! If you’re designing your own foil sticker with a combination of print and foil, we recommend having a read of our blog: ‘How to Provide Your Artwork for Foil Print’.
Do I have to have laminate in order to make foil stickers?
At The Foil Printing Co., we’ve spent years testing a combination of print materials with our foils in order to craft the best aluminum foil stickers available, and soft-touch laminate is an integral part of that. Sandwiched between your print layer and your foil layer, our soft-touch laminate creates an ultra-thin, silky-smooth topcoat that helps ensure longevity and maximum shine. What’s not to love?
How do I know what my chosen foil color will look like before ordering?
If you want to see our foil shades for yourself before ordering your foil-printed stickers, we recommend ordering a sample pack. This is the best way to ensure that our foils are going to work with your branding aesthetic before committing to an order of small foil stickers.
How soon can you get my aluminum foil stickers to me? I have a last-minute convention to stock for.
We pride ourselves on our fast turnaround and will try our very best to get your stickers with you in time. To find out how soon we can get your stickers to you, we recommend configuring your order above and checking the estimated dispatch date before checking out. If you’re working to a strict deadline, we recommend getting in touch with a member of our customer service team to ensure our production team can work to your deadline.

Unfortunately, we are unable to add more than 1 foil shade to a single sticker, however if you would like multiple sticker designs printed in different foil shades, you’re welcome to configure each design separately, selecting a different foil color per batch.
