At first glance it might be hard to determine the difference between labels and stickers. The key indicator is their material and their uses.
Stickers are typically used for branding and promotional purposes and are made of a matte or gloss paper. Stickers are an affordable way to personalize packaging to communicate your brand to customers.
Labels are used to convey important information to the customer and are made of a water and chemical resilient BOPP material. Labels are perfect for product packaging, bottles, cans, etc.
When choosing between stickers and labels, think about your end goal on how you intend on using them.
