Doming stickers are also referred to as Domed Labels, 3D Stickers, Gel Dome Stickers, Domed Decals, Resin Domes etc. are made by applying clear doming resin on top of pressure sensitive labels. The doming process passes through three stages:
- Labels are printed using digital print process or screen-printing.
- Precisely kiss cutting and waste removal.
- Applying two component, mercury free, transparent polyurethane resin.
The result is a crystal-clear and flexible dome, encapsulating the printed image inside.
Any regular shapes like circle, ellipse, rectangle and square can be domed. Not every irregular geometric forms can be domed. When designing the shape of labels, avoid sharp outer and inner corners of the cut contour line applying radius of roundness at minimum 2,5 mm.
We recommend as minimum size – 10 mm X 10 mm. However, the printed images must be visible. As maximum size – 300 mm X 400 mm.
The thickness of the dome is controlled between 1,5 mm. and 2 mm.
