Custom Stickers & Labels in Niagara — Waterproof, Die-Cut & More

Custom stickers are one of those products that every business needs but most don't think about strategically. They're not just for kids' birthday parties — stickers are a legitimate marketing tool, a branding vehicle, and for some businesses, the actual product. If you're in Niagara and you need stickers or labels, here's what you need to know.

Niagara Stands Out prints custom stickers and labels from our production facility in Port Colborne, Ontario. We serve businesses across the Niagara Region — from wineries in Niagara-on-the-Lake to contractors in Welland, restaurants in Niagara Falls to retail shops in St. Catharines.

Types of Custom Stickers We Produce

Die-Cut Stickers

Cut to the exact shape of your design. No white border, no rectangular background — just your logo, graphic, or artwork cut precisely to its outline. Die-cut stickers look professional and premium. They're the standard for branding stickers, laptop stickers, product packaging, and promotional giveaways.

We produce die-cut stickers in any shape and size, from 1-inch circles to 12-inch custom shapes. Full colour, matte or gloss laminate, on premium vinyl that's rated for 5+ years outdoor use.

Kiss-Cut Stickers

The sticker is cut to shape but stays on a backing sheet (usually with a small border). This makes them easier to peel and ideal for sticker sheets, retail packaging, and event handouts. If you've ever peeled a sticker off a sheet, that's a kiss-cut.

Clear Stickers

Printed on transparent vinyl, so the background of whatever surface you stick them on shows through. Perfect for glass doors, windows, product packaging where you want the sticker to blend in, and premium branding applications. We print in white ink on clear, so light elements still show up.

Holographic Stickers

Eye-catching rainbow-effect material that shifts colour as you tilt it. Hugely popular for product authenticity, craft breweries, cannabis packaging, and anyone who wants their sticker to stand out in a crowd. We see a lot of demand for these from Niagara's craft beverage industry.

Waterproof Stickers

Printed on waterproof synthetic material with waterproof laminate. These aren't just water-resistant — they're designed for full submersion, outdoor exposure, and harsh conditions. Essential for marine applications (boat names, registration numbers), outdoor equipment, cooler stickers, and products that get wet.

In Niagara, with the lakes, canals, and brutal winters, waterproof stickers aren't optional for outdoor applications — they're mandatory.

Bumper Stickers

Classic rectangular vinyl stickers designed for vehicle bumpers, toolboxes, hard hats, and anywhere else you want to make a statement. We print on automotive-grade vinyl with UV-resistant laminate so they don't fade in the sun.

Custom Labels for Products & Packaging

Labels are stickers with a job. If you sell a physical product — food, beverages, candles, cosmetics, supplements, crafts — your label is your primary marketing tool. It's what catches someone's eye on the shelf and communicates your brand.

We produce custom labels for businesses across our business labels collection:

Food & Beverage Labels

Waterproof, oil-resistant labels for jars, bottles, cans, and pouches. Compliant with CFIA labelling requirements. We print for honey producers in Lincoln, jam makers in Niagara-on-the-Lake, hot sauce brands in Welland, and craft breweries across the region.

Wine & Spirits Labels

Niagara is wine country. We print labels for wineries, cideries, and craft distilleries that need short-run, high-quality labels. Premium stocks, foil options, embossing — whatever your brand demands. Short runs (50-500) are our specialty, since wineries often need different labels for each vintage.

Cosmetics & Personal Care Labels

Water-resistant labels for bottles, tubes, and jars. Scratch-resistant finishes that survive bathroom conditions. We understand the regulatory requirements for cosmetics labelling in Canada.

Cannabis Labels

Compliant with Health Canada cannabis packaging requirements. Tamper-evident options, required warning symbols, and THC/CBD content areas. We print for licensed producers and retailers in Ontario.

Materials Guide — Choosing the Right Sticker Stock

White Vinyl

The standard. Bright white background with vibrant full-colour printing. Durable, waterproof with laminate, suitable for indoor and outdoor use. This is what 70% of our customers order.

Clear Vinyl

Transparent. Shows the surface underneath. Best for glass, clear packaging, and applications where you want a "no label" look. We print white ink as a base where needed.

Kraft Paper

Natural brown paper look. Popular for organic, artisanal, and eco-friendly brands. Not waterproof unless laminated. Gives a handmade, rustic feel. Very popular with Niagara food producers and farmers' market vendors.

Metallic Vinyl

Silver or gold base with printing on top. Premium, eye-catching, and great for special editions, awards, or luxury products.

Removable Vinyl

Peels off cleanly without residue. Essential for rental properties, temporary promotions, product labels that need to be swapped seasonally, and any application where permanent adhesion is a problem.

Minimum Order Quantities

We keep MOQs reasonable because we know Niagara businesses aren't all ordering 10,000 units. Here's our standard minimums:

• Die-cut stickers: 25 minimum
• Kiss-cut sticker sheets: 25 sheets minimum
• Product labels (roll): 100 minimum
• Bumper stickers: 25 minimum
• Large format stickers (6"+): 10 minimum

Volume pricing applies. The more you order, the lower the per-unit cost. We'll quote exact pricing for your specific size, material, and quantity.

Turnaround Times

Standard orders: 3-5 business days. Rush orders (1-2 days) available for most products. Local pickup from our Port Colborne shop saves shipping time for Niagara businesses. We ship across Ontario and Canada via Canada Post and courier.

Use Cases — How Niagara Businesses Use Custom Stickers

Contractors

Hard hat stickers, tool box branding, equipment labels, "Installed by..." stickers on completed work, vehicle decals. Every job site is a branding opportunity.

Restaurants & Cafes

Takeout container labels, loyalty stickers, window graphics, menu board elements, branded packaging tape. Your to-go packaging IS your marketing when it leaves the restaurant.

Retail & E-Commerce

Packaging stickers, box seals, thank-you stickers, product labels, promotional stickers included in orders. Unboxing experience matters — a branded sticker sealing tissue paper costs pennies and looks premium.

Events & Organizations

Name tags, event branding, sponsor logos, swag bag stickers, promotional handouts. Canal Days, Friendship Festival, Grape & Wine — every Niagara event needs stickers.

Why Local Sticker Printing Beats Online

The same argument applies to stickers as it does to everything else: you can see and feel samples, approve proofs in person, adjust on the fly, and get your order without waiting for shipping from the US or overseas. Plus, you're supporting a Niagara business.

We also offer something online printers can't: consultation. If you're not sure which material, finish, or size works best for your application, come to our Port Colborne shop. We have sample books and can produce test prints before you commit to a full run.
