How to use biodegradable stickers – Sticker it

Biodegradable paper stickers are our secret favorite. We love the way they look and feel - and of course, we love that they do not harm the environment.

If you are ogling biodegradable paper stickers but are not sure if they work for your intended purpose or what makes them special, you have come to the right place. In this article, we will share our top three ways of using biodegradable stickers.

What are biodegradable paper stickers?

Essentially, biodegradable paper stickers are paper stickers. However, they are much thicker and of higher quality than standard paper stickers.

On top of that, our paper material comes with a twist: it completely biodegrades within 12 weeks. That is because these compostable stickers are made from all-natural materials: 95% sugarcane fiber and 5% linen and hemp.

You can simply put your biodegradable paper stickers into your food waste bin with fruit or vegetable scraps and other organic produce, where they will then decompose.

The adhesive and ink used on these stickers will not interfere with this process as the adhesive is biodegradable as well, and our inks have a GREENGUARD Gold Certification.

The limitations of paper stickers

As biodegradable paper stickers are made from a form of paper that is not laminated, these stickers should not be submerged in water.

They are splash-proof, which means that they can handle small droplets of water on the surface but should not be left in the rain or put in the dishwasher.

The top ways to use biodegradable paper stickers

There are many ways you can use our environmentally friendly stickers, but below, you can find our top three ways to use these biodegradable beauties.

1. Compostable food packaging

Biodegradable stickers are perfect for use around food or as food labels, especially if you are already using compostable packaging labels or biodegradable food wrapping. You will also often find these stickers used as compostable produce stickers, such as fruit stickers.

The beauty of biodegradable stickers is that they can be disposed of in the same way as the packaging they are stuck to. Their paper texture works beautifully with cardboard packaging.

2. Artisan product labelling

Biodegradable paper stickers and labels make your products look more individualistic. The textured paper gives your packaging an artisan, hand-crafted look that will draw consumers in.

In fact, studies like this show that consumers actively prefer paper-based packaging to plastic alternatives, so be sure to invest in these compostable labels and paper stickers.

3. Eco-friendly branding

Biodegradable labels and stickers are perfect to represent your eco-conscious ethics as a brand and share them with your customers.

Use your stickers to let consumers know that your products are sustainable, locally sourced, or vegan. You can also use individually cut biodegradable logo stickers to spread the word about your business and encourage your customers to stick them to their laptops and phones for the world to see.
