What artwork files do you accept? Vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) are best for the sharpest results. High-resolution PNG or JPG files also work well, provided they're clear and at least 300 DPI at the final print size. What is vector artwork? Vector files are created using paths rather than pixels, which means they can be scaled to any size without losing quality. This gives you sharper prints and cleaner cut lines compared to raster images like JPG or PNG. Can you fix or set up my artwork? Yes — we can resize, tidy files, add bleed, or create cut lines. For simple adjustments, there's no charge. We'll let you know upfront if more extensive artwork preparation requires a fee. Do I need to supply cut lines? A: No. If needed, we'll create cut lines for you at no charge. Will I see a proof before printing? You can choose whether you'd like to receive a proof when placing your order. If you select this option and artwork changes or adjustments are required, you'll receive a digital proof for approval before we proceed to printing. What is a proof? A proof is a digital preview of exactly how your sticker will look when printed. It shows the final design, colors, sizing, and cut lines, allowing you to review and approve everything before production begins. This ensures the finished product matches your expectations. When will I receive my proof? Your proof will be emailed to you within 24-48 hours of placing your order. Please keep an eye on your inbox and check your junk mail folder in case it's filtered there. If you haven't received your proof within this timeframe, please contact us directly. No work will move into production until the proof is approved via return email. What if my logo or image isn't high enough quality? We'll assess your file and let you know if the quality is suitable for printing. If your artwork is too low resolution, we'll advise you and may be able to help recreate or source a better quality version for a small fee.

Materials & Finishing

What surfaces can these stickers adhere to? Our circle stickers adhere well to most smooth, clean surfaces including glass, metal, plastic, wood, and painted surfaces. For best results, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or oils before application. Are these stickers removable? While our stickers feature strong permanent adhesive designed for long-lasting application, they can be removed. However, depending on the surface and how long they've been applied, some adhesive residue may remain. They're not designed for repositioning once applied. Will the colors fade over time? All stickers will fade over time depending on UV exposure. Our stickers are printed with genuine Roland eco-sol inks that are UV stable and fade-resistant. The 2-year vinyl has a life expectancy of approximately 2 years and will fade faster as the ink is not protected by lamination. The laminated 5-year vinyl offers significantly greater color protection due to its UV-overlaminate layer, making it the best choice if long-term color vibrancy is essential for your application. Can these stickers withstand exposure to oils and chemicals? Yes, our stickers are oil-resistant, and the laminated 5-year vinyl provides enhanced protection against cleaning chemicals and essential oils. If your stickers will be regularly exposed to harsh chemicals, we strongly recommend choosing the laminated option. What's the minimum or maximum size I can order? The minimum order size for circle stickers is 60x60mm. If you need stickers smaller than this, please use our 'Sheet Stickers' product or if you need them to be smaller and cut as singles contact us for a custom quote. How do I care for items with these stickers on them? Our stickers are dishwasher safe and can handle regular cleaning. For hand-washing, simply clean as you normally would. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers directly on the sticker surface to maintain the best appearance over time.

Will I see a proof before printing?
When placing your order, you'll select whether you have print-ready files, need file setup assistance, or need a new file created. Based on your selection, you'll see how many design proofs are included. If you have print-ready artwork and request a proof, we'll send you a digital proof for approval. We won't make adjustments to your artwork unless you've selected one of our file setup options. If your file isn't set up correctly, we'll notify you before proceeding.

Materials & Printing

What material are the stubby coolers made from?
Stubby coolers are made from premium neoprene — the same flexible, insulating material used in wetsuits. Neoprene provides superior insulation to keep drinks cold, is comfortable to hold, and is highly durable for long-term everyday use.

What printing method is used?
Stubby coolers are printed using full colour dye sublimation. Unlike surface printing, dye sublimation embeds the ink directly into the neoprene material under heat and pressure, producing vibrant, photo-quality results that won't fade, crack, or peel with regular use.

How durable is the print?
Because dye sublimation embeds the ink into the material itself rather than applying it on top, the print is permanent and extremely durable. It won't fade, crack, peel, or wash off with normal use and cleaning.

What size drinks do these fit?
These stubby coolers are designed to fit most standard 375ml cans.

What is the shark skin base?
Each stubby cooler features a specially designed non-slip shark skin textured base that keeps your can stable on flat surfaces and prevents slipping. It also provides an extra layer of insulation between the can and the surface.

How are the edges finished?
Each stubby cooler is finished with stitched edges for a clean, durable result that holds its shape and appearance with regular use.

Can I put stubby coolers in the dishwasher?
We recommend hand washing stubby coolers to maintain the best appearance over time. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying as this may affect the neoprene material and print quality over time.

Production Times & Shipping

How long does it take to produce stubby coolers?
Stubby coolers have a production time of 7–14 business days from artwork upload or approval. If you have an urgent requirement or a large order, please contact us directly to discuss your timeline.

Can you rush my order if it's urgent?
Yes! Please contact us directly to discuss your timeline and we'll do our best to accommodate your needs.

Who do you use for shipping?
We use local couriers for all stubby cooler deliveries, ensuring reliable and trackable shipping across Australia.

How long will delivery take once my order ships?
Delivery times depend on your location and the courier service used. You'll receive tracking information once your order is dispatched.

If I order multiple different products will my entire order arrive together?
If you order multiple different products, they may be dispatched separately as each item is completed. This means you might receive your order in multiple packages at different times. Each dispatch will be sent with tracking information so you can monitor all your deliveries.
