Heavy duty stickers
Built for extreme environments. 8x thicker than normal.
What are heavy duty stickers?
We finish these heavy-duty stickers with a 250-micron gloss laminate which is super thick to ensure these stickers withstand all types of punishment.
It still has brilliant clarity, so your design looks incredibly sharp.
These stickers are backed in an extra-permanent adhesive with a peel adhesion strength of 30N/25mm - over 2x stickier than standard labels!
These stickers will stick to nearly anything you throw at them, even highly curved surfaces.
Heavy duty stickers are digitally cut in any shape around your design.
You can choose any size from 2cm to 70cm wide.
These heavy duty stickers are individually cut around your artwork.

All heavy-duty stickers get finished with a 250-micros clear gloss over-laminate that gives maximum protection to the printed layer.

Heavy duty stickers built for tough conditions
Our heavy duty stickers are designed for places where regular stickers fail. They stay stuck on tools, machinery, helmets, and equipment that gets used, washed, moved, and handled every day. They hold up to rain, sunlight, chemicals, heat, and constant wear without peeling or fading.
If you need stickers that will stay in place and keep looking sharp in tough environments, this is the right material.
You upload your design. We prepare a free proof, print, and ship quickly.
Built strong for long-term performance
These stickers are made from thick, durable vinyl and finished with a heavy protective laminate. They resist common industrial solvents (IPA, acetone), motor oils, and surface abrasions caused by repeated tool contact. The adhesive grips tight and stays put, even on surfaces that get bumped or used outdoors.
They maintain adhesion on non-porous surfaces, including stainless steel, ABS plastic, powder-coated aluminum, and glass, for up to 5 years. Once applied properly, they do not curl or lift at the edges.
Why these are “heavy duty”
Heavy duty means extra strength everywhere: stronger adhesive, thicker laminate, and higher resistance to damage. The print stays clear, the colours stay bright, and the sticker holds up through rough handling and outdoor exposure.
In simple terms: they survive real working conditions, not just light use.
Where do the heavy duty stickers work best?
These are the stickers you choose for equipment and environments that don’t stay clean or gentle:
They work well on:
- Power tools
- Construction gear
- Industrial containers and storage
- Outdoor equipment
- Helmets and hard hats
- Vehicles and trailers
- Machinery and workshop surfaces
- Commercial kitchens and labs
If you need labels for safety, maintenance, instructions, or long-term branding, this is the material built for that kind of job.
How long do the heavy-duty stickers last?
These stickers are built to last 3 to 5+ years in harsh environments. In our in-house abrasion and UV exposure tests, they maintained adhesion and clarity after 1500+ hours.
They handle sun, rain, heat, chemicals, and repeated handling. When applied on a clean, dry surface, they stay fixed and don’t fade or peel.
Regular vinyl, like our waterproof stickers, is great for bottles and laptops. But for tools and rough environments, heavy duty is the way to go. Heavy duty is for equipment, tools, and places where you expect rough use or long-term exposure.
How to apply heavy duty stickers
Clean the surface, dry it fully, and press the sticker down firmly. Smooth across the surface to remove any air. For textured surfaces or very dirty environments, ordering a sample first can help you check the fit.
Order with confidence
