Waterproof stickers

Our waterproof stickers are made for real-world conditions: rain, sunlight, rough handling, and even dishwashers. They’re totally weatherproof!

We print and ship quickly across the UK. Use them for labelling, packaging, water bottles, or containers, wherever you need stickers that stay sharp and stick well.

What are waterproof stickers?

Waterproof stickers are printed on high-quality vinyl and finished with a clear laminate that seals the design. This makes them resistant to water, sunlight, and everyday wear. The laminate protects the ink from fading, scratching, and moisture, so the stickers hold up indoors and outdoors.

All materials are RoHS compliant and selected for long-term durability in demanding environments.

Waterproof vs water resistant

Water-resistant stickers can handle light splashes or a quick wipe, but over time water will seep through and damage the print. They’re fine for short-term use or dry environments.

What makes these stickers waterproof?

Our waterproof stickers are built to stay on and stay clear, even with constant contact with water, UV light, and daily handling. They don’t peel, smudge, or fade easily, and they’re safe for dishwashers, bottles, and outdoor use.

Waterproof vinyl base

We use premium vinyl instead of paper. Vinyl doesn’t absorb water, so it won’t swell, tear, or break down when wet.

UV-resistant inks

We print using UV-resistant CMYK and white inks. They keep your design bright and sharp even in direct sunlight.

Protective laminate

A clear gloss laminate is applied over the print. This seals the design, protects against scratches, and prevents water from reaching the ink layer.

Strong adhesive

The adhesive is designed to bond to smooth surfaces like metal, glass, and plastic. It stays stuck when exposed to water, heat, and everyday wear.

Tested for real-world use

Our waterproof stickers are tested against:

• Running water and soaking
• Dishwashers and soap
• Outdoor sun and rain
• Scratches and rubbing

They’re made to last, indoors or outdoors, on anything from bottles and jars to equipment and vehicles.

How long will the waterproof stickers last?

Our waterproof stickers are built to handle daily use and outdoor weather. In normal conditions, they usually last 3 to 5 years without peeling or fading. They stay strong through rain, sunlight, washing and regular handling.

If you need something even tougher, choose our heavy duty stickers. They use thicker vinyl and a stronger adhesive, so they work better on rough surfaces and in long-term outdoor environments.

Can you make waterproof stickers yourself?

Yes, you can. If you already have a sticker and want to make it waterproof, the easiest method is to apply a clear laminate sheet over the top. This creates a barrier that protects against water, fading, and surface damage. You can also use clear packing tape as a quick fix, though it won’t be as durable.

What can you customise in your waterproof stickers?

You can customise your waterproof stickers completely, from the size and shape to the material and adhesive type. Sizes start from 2 cm and go all the way up to 58 cm, so whether you need something small and subtle or large and bold, we’ve got you covered.

Choose from classic shapes like rounds, squares, and rectangles, or go for something more unique with custom die-cut stickers that follow the outline of your design.

Stickers can be supplied individually, on sheets, or on rolls. Just pick the format that works best for your project.

What’s the ordering process?

Simple.

• You send us your design.
• We send you a free proof.
• You approve it (or request changes until it’s right).
• Once approved, we print and ship within 4 working days.

Companies in the UK use them for packaging, events, and outdoor signs

These waterproof stickers are a great choice for businesses, creatives, and event organisers across the UK. They apply smoothly to plastic, glass, and metal and hold up under a wide range of temperatures, from freezing to heat.

Common uses include:

• Labelling cosmetics, food jars, or cleaning products
• Branding giveaways or event packs
• Marking bins, tools, or light outdoor items
• Reusable product branding or shipping
• Signage or labels in damp or splash-prone areas

They’re designed to hold up well in everyday conditions, like occasional water exposure, sun, or handling, and keep your designs looking clean and readable.

Can you use it on a water bottle?

Yes! Our waterproof stickers can handle everyday use. Stick them on water bottles, laptops, phone cases, or lunch boxes. They’ll stay bright and firmly in place even with regular washing and handling.

How to apply waterproof stickers?

Clean and dry the surface first. Peel your sticker and place it where you want it. Press from the centre out to remove any air bubbles. Make sure all edges are stuck down firmly so water cannot get underneath.

For best results, use on smooth, non-porous surfaces like metal, glass, and hard plastic.

How to clean waterproof stickers?

Wipe your sticker with water and a soft cloth or sponge. You can use mild soap if needed. Avoid harsh cleaners or scrubbing pads because they can dull the surface over time. If the sticker is on a bottle or container, you can wash it in the dishwasher as long as all edges are firmly stuck down.
