Die Cut Paper Stickers – Eco-Friendly Custom Shapes
Die cut paper stickers offer an eco-friendly alternative to vinyl with the same precision shape cutting and vibrant print quality.
Price starts from $0.30 per piece for large volume orders. Final pricing depends on size, material, printing, and quantity.
Shaped Paper Stickers Without the Plastic
Die-cut paper stickers pair the eco-friendliness and soft look of paper with a custom contour cut, so you get a shaped, borderless sticker without the plastic of vinyl. They suit indoor, sustainability-focused applications — packaging seals, event stickers, and product labels — where a shaped paper sticker looks more considered than a rectangle.
We cut precisely to your artwork on recyclable paper stock in gloss, matte, or uncoated finish. As with all paper stickers they are for dry indoor use, but within that space the die-cut shape lifts the presentation above a standard label.
If you're comparing options, it's also worth looking at our eco-friendly paper sticker printing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Die Cut Paper Stickers
Yes, though paper is slightly less forgiving than vinyl on very thin necks and delicate points, which can tear when peeling. We keep the cut path robust for paper and flag any fragile areas in your proof. Bold, simple shapes work best.
No — like all paper stickers they are for indoor, dry applications. Moisture and sun will damage them. For a shaped sticker that survives outdoors, choose die-cut vinyl instead; for indoor eco use, die-cut paper is ideal.
Die Cut Paper Stickers are produced from sustainable materials — recycled paper stock, FSC-certified paper, or eco-vinyl alternatives — with water-based inks where possible.
Paper-based Die Cut Paper Stickers are recyclable along with the product packaging they're applied to. Plastic-based vinyl options are not currently recyclable.
Paper-based Die Cut Paper Stickers are for indoor use only — they're not waterproof or UV-resistant. For outdoor applications, we recommend our vinyl range instead.
Die Cut Paper Stickers use a water-based, non-toxic adhesive suitable for most paper, cardboard, and lightweight packaging surfaces without causing damage.
Die Cut Paper Stickers are printed using high-resolution digital printing. Colors may appear slightly softer than on gloss vinyl due to the paper stock's natural texture.
Die Cut Paper Stickers can be used on outer food packaging such as boxes and bags. They are not intended for direct food contact — confirm compliance for your application.
Standard paper Die Cut Paper Stickers are not moisture-resistant. We offer a coated paper option with light moisture resistance — ideal for refrigerated product packaging.
Die Cut Paper Stickers are available in any custom size or shape. Common sizes for product labels range from 1"×1" to 4"×6" for most packaging applications.
Yes. Die Cut Paper Stickers can be cut to any custom shape using our computer-controlled die cutting equipment, regardless of the eco-material used.
