Double Sided Stickers.

It is printed on both faces with adhesive on one side, so it sticks to the inside of the glass and reads from both directions. The face against the glass is seen through it by people outside. The other face is seen by people in the shop or the car.

Storefronts, parking permits and vehicle windows use this format because both audiences need a message.

The blockout layer between the two prints was left out, so each design ghosts through the other. Light from behind carries the rear image through the front one, and both read as a grey, translucent mess. An opaque blockout core between the faces stops it.

We build these stickers with the blockout as standard. The only exception is clear vinyl, used where some transparency is wanted on purpose.

Yes, the glass-side face is printed mirrored so it reads the right way round through the window. Send both artworks the normal way, state in the brief which one faces the glass, and we'll reverse it on the proof. Check that proof carefully.

A sticker printed backwards can't be fixed after the run. It's an expensive proof error, and one line in the order brief prevents it.

Static cling suits anything swapped each year, such as an annual permit or a seasonal promotion, because it holds without glue and peels off clean. It can be repositioned and reused. The trade-off is grip in heat, where cling film is weaker than adhesive.

For a sticker that has to stay put all year on a hot windscreen, removable adhesive is the safer choice. It still comes away cleanly when the season ends.

Both faces are printed digitally in full colour, and each can carry its own artwork, Pantone matches and a UV laminate. Die-cutting follows a logo or contour outline if you don't want a plain rectangle. Holographic and clear finishes are also available.

We'd laminate any sticker that faces the sun. A window sticker lives in direct sunlight, and UV-stable film plus laminate is what keeps the outward face from washing out.

Any die size can be cut, so size it to the clear glass you have rather than to a stock shape. Measure the visible area inside the frame or the ceramic dot band, and leave a margin so the edge doesn't sit on a seal or a wiper path.

Send width, height and the outline you want. The proof shows both faces at actual size, with the mirrored side marked.

The floor is 500 stickers per artwork pair. Front and back count as one item, and runs scale up to 100,000. Permit programmes often order the full year's quantity at once so every sticker in circulation matches.

If you have several versions, such as different permit zones or store locations, each version is quoted as its own run.

Double-sided runs are finished in 7 to 10 business days from approval. A rush of 5 to 7 business days is available for a launch or a permit deadline. Samples take 5 to 7 business days, and we'd suggest one here so you can hold it to the glass and check the mirrored face in place.

The sample fee is credited when you place the bulk order.
