Decals
What is a Decal?
A Decal is a durable adhesive graphic made for a specific surface or environment. A Decal is defined by its placement, while a Sticker is defined by the design itself and a Label by the information it carries.
Decals are commonly used on vehicles, windows, walls, floors, shopfronts, and products, where the application matters as much as the design.
Decals vs. Stickers vs. Labels
Stickers, Labels, and Decals are all adhesive graphics. What sets them apart is what defines the product.
Category | Defined by | The product is | Primary purpose | What matters most |
Stickers | Design | The design itself | Decoration, branding, or personal expression | The design |
Labels | Information | The information it carries | Identify, inform, instruct, or organise | Clarity and readability |
Decals | Placement | The surface or environment it's made for | Perform on a specific surface or in a specific environment | Placement, material, and durability |
