🌟 Why the Process Matters

For product designers, manufacturers, or procurement teams, understanding how custom metal stickers are made can:

• Improve design-for-manufacturing (DFM) decisions

• Avoid mismatched specs or over-engineered features

• Ensure supply chain reliability

• Support sustainable and cost-effective procurement

At Himgo, we manage every step under one roof — from raw metal processing to final adhesive lamination — so your product receives more than just a label, but a badge of quality.

🏗️ Step-by-Step: From Design to Delivery

---

1️⃣ Concept & Application Analysis

We begin by understanding your use case:

• Device type (e.g., smartphone, speaker, charger, router)

• Function (decorative, branding, compliance, technical label)

• Environment (temperature, EM interference, outdoor/indoor)

• Mounting surface (flat, curved, textured)

2️⃣ Engineering & Prototyping

You’ll work directly with our in-house engineers to define:

• Material: aluminum, stainless steel, brass, nickel

• Size, thickness, and shape (CNC/die-cutting ready)

• Surface finishes (e.g., brushed, glossy, matte)

• Adhesive type (3M 300LSE, foam-based, custom)

We offer free DFM feedback and rapid samples before mass production.

3️⃣ Material Preparation & Cutting

We only source certified raw materials, then precision-cut using:

• Laser cutting for complex shapes

• Stamping or die-cutting for high-volume runs

• CNC machining for ultra-fine tolerances

Material options include:

4️⃣ Surface Finishing

This is where metal becomes your brand. We offer 12+ finishing styles:

• Brushed / Satin for a subtle, matte texture

• Polished / Glossy for mirror-like shine

• Anodized / Electroplated for color + durability

• Sandblasting / Etching for premium texture

5️⃣ Decoration: Printing, Engraving, Embossing

Depending on your requirements:

• Silk screen printing for bold colors

• Laser etching for serials, logos, or barcodes

• Embossing for tactile branding

• UV printing for gradient and multicolor effects

We help choose methods that balance aesthetic and durability.

6️⃣ Adhesive Backing & Lamination

A sticker is only as good as its adhesive. Options include:

• 3M 468MP / 300LSE for electronics

• Foam tape for uneven or textured surfaces

• Custom-cut adhesives for non-standard shapes
