If you are going to browse our website, you will see some options for printing stickers/labels: they are single stickers and roll stickers. These two kinds of stickers/labels have different functions and are used in different occasions. Our rolls and single stickers/labels have a variety of materials to choose from. As for the difference between these two options, here we will make a further explanation to let you know more about sticker printing! To choose between sticker rolls and sticker sheets, there are many aspects to consider before you make the decision. To guide you on which option is best for your stickers, we have laid out a few factors that can differentiate the two sticker / label types:
Printing quantity
Quality
Color range
Cost-efficiency
Urgency
Printing quantity introduce.
Most of the time, the quantity of the stickers you want to print will affect your decision to choose between the two sticker types. For example, if you want to print stickers as little as 100 pieces, you would opt for sticker sheets, as small quantity printing is not possible with sticker rolls. Printing in bulk on the other hand, sticker rolls are the optimal choice because you can print as many as 1,000,000 stickers!
Quality introduce.
If you want to opt for consistency plus quality, sticker rolls are usually better. This is because the stickers are printed one at a time with great resources such as special ink.
Color range introduce.
Stickers can be printed using spot color (pantone) or process printing (CMYK). Our sticker rolls can be printed using both of these methods, this means that sticker rolls have a wider variety of colors.
Cost-efficiency Cost-efficiency introduce.
Sticker rolls are usually more cost-efficient. Basically, the more stickers you print, the cheaper it gets! Most industries for example mass produce products, so the labels that would go with their products are mass produced as well. That is why they will go for sticker rolls because they are more budget-friendly and allow bulk printing.
Urgency introduce.
When it comes to speed, this really depends, sticker sheet can be the sprint, on the other hand sticker roll can be the marathon. Sticker rolls can typically be printed in high volume in a short timeframe. That said, if you urgently need the stickers, you can print a few sets of sticker sheets first and then go for sticker rolls to print the rest when things calm down.
