We are often asked, “what is the difference between a sticker, a label and a decal?” The quick answer- it all depends on how you’re going to use it.
Most commonly, stickers, labels and decals present a definite gray area when it comes to defining the three sticky components, causing confusion when it comes time to ask for one to fit your needs.
Decals: Decals are more graphical by nature and are often intended to be applied on walls, glass and floors.
Labels: Labels are used for identification or informative purposes (such as name tags and product packaging) and are most frequently intended to go on a surface of a particular size.
Stickers: Graphical in design, stickers are typically applied on a smooth surface of any size.
