Create a Distinctive Shine for Your Brand With Metallic Label Printing
Make sure your products stand out from the crowd with custom metallic labels. The glossy sheen of metallic prints reflect light for a brilliant shine and high-end look. If you want to be seen and edge out the competition, custom printed metallic labels are your best bet for winning.
How Do Metallic Labels Get Their Shine?
To achieve the glimmer and shine, printable metallic labels undergo a simple printing process. There are the four elements to it:
- Sticker Paper – A durable 70 lb. white sticker stock is the substrate used as the base.
- Silver Foil – First, a layer of silver foil is applied onto the substrate.
- CMYK Ink – After the silver layer, CMYK ink is then printed on top.
- High-Gloss UV Coating – This is the last layer that gives the boost of sparkle. This makes your printed metallic labels shine more, and feel smooth to the touch, just like glass.
The end result is a shiny finish similar to real metal that sparkles when light hits it. With this process, any color imaginable can become metallic, even gradients.
Note: An easy-to-peel liner makes sticking your labels anywhere a breeze.
What Sizes Do Custom Metallic Labels Come In?
Our metallic labels come in 17 sizes from 1.75" x 3.5" to 6" x 9", including our most popular size: 2” x 2”.
- Square – This versatile shape stands out better on its own. Turn it sideways to make it a diamond shape for a unique twist on your labeling.
- Rectangle - This shape wraps nicely around bottles and containers. The wider space allows you to put more information on your label.
Print metallic labels and take advantage of the different sizes available to promote your brand well. Why not use them as fancy address labels, name badges, product labels, or even window stickers? The possibilities are endless.

Guidelines for Setting Up Your Artwork for Metallic Printing
To set up your file for metallic printing, follow these important steps:
- Your file should contain two layers.
- One layer contains your artwork
- Another layer to show where the metallic will be applied
- The artwork and metallic layer should align properly.
- For ideal text outcome, use san serif fonts 12 pt. or larger.
- Avoid using dark metallic colors. The metallic effect shows up more with lighter colors.
