Contravision

All of our materials are digitally cut using a Zund CNC Cutter. Through-Cutting is where we cut through the vinyl and backing sheet, so each sticker is 1 item.

We offer the option of trim to size, throughcut to a simple shape (this includes circles, triangles and simple straight line objects) or complicated shapes. 

If you would like advice on how we would categorise your cut shape feel free to contact a member of the team before you place your order.

Kiss Cutting is where we cut through the layer of vinyl, but not the backing sheet.

Kiss Cutting is used for creating sheets of stickers, with multiple designs on them that can be easily peeled off. This is ideal if you are giving away sheets of stickers at events, or if they are being sent to a fulfillment environment where the stickers are being peeled off to apply to a product.  

It is also used when you have a design that needs to have excess material removed around it to create a 'floating graphic' which can then be mounted onto a wall or otherwise. To achieve this you also need the sticker to be weeded and have application tape.

Weeding is the process of removing any excess vinyl after kiss cutting. This is used to create a 'floating graphic' on a window or product - so the background of the design is removed - or when in reverse, it can be used to block out large areas of a window with only parts of the design removed to see through.

Weeding must be used in conjunction with application tape.
