Kiss Cutting Stickers Have More Shapes

By Traci Witt


With the kiss cutting method of making stickers or other adhesive products, there is almost no limit to the amount and style of the final product. There are a variety of uses and a variety of end users for such products. So much so that even selling machines that makes these style of adhesives are selling very well.

This is because the method used is much simpler and also allows for the sticker to remain with the backing throughout the entire process all the way to packaging. Because of this they can be places in rolls or sheets or any other method that is needed by the client. Teachers are a great example of someone who uses stickers on a daily basis and who need a variety of styles.

The process takes a material that has a backing attached to an adhesive paper which will later become the sticker. The die cut tool or laser will then cut through the very first layer, or the sticky part of the paper, but it will not cut through the second sheet. The second sheet is what will become the backing.

With this method the stickers can remain on the backing paper and can then be rolled up and dispersed like a paper towel or even presented in separate sheets. These can then be packaged and sold just how they are to whoever may need them. When it comes time for the application they can simply peel it off of the paper and apply it to whatever they want to.

This also cuts down on waste both at the manufacturing plant and for the end user. Once the sticker needed is removed from the backing the rest can be put back into the package or another storage area for later use. The backing keeps the adhesive from touching the air or anything else and hence keeping it sticky until needed.

This is why so many industries can find uses for the end product. Because the backing and the adhesive and the cut depth can be altered this also means that the places they are used can also be different than where a standard one could go. If there is an adhesive that can go under water, they could then make a sticker out of a material that could last in a moist environment.

From teachers who use them to put a star on a students homework to a single mom using them for price tags at her garage sale, there is no limit to what these can be utilized for. For medical applications to the auto industry they are used for almost everything. Another thing that makes that possible is the large amount of different adhesives.

One machine can do the job of many and that way an individual can start up without having to buy five different machines to cut five different materials with varying depths. Kiss cutting allows for all of that with one machine and varying heads or materials. Many more options without the large overhead.
