"Furong foam" is the trade name for PVC foam rolls — not skin, not food. It is the base material of puffy stickers, 0.6-2.0mm thick, sold by the roll, 100 m each.

Wholesale sticker price = material + process + quantity + packaging. This guide breaks the structure down so you pay a fair price.

Stationery stickers come in flat-printed and 3D foam forms. We make the latter — puffy PVC foam stickers popular with kids, custom from 2,000 pcs, 5-15 days lead time.

5D embossed stickers are not epoxy doming — they are multi-layer 3D foam stickers formed by HF welding: soft touch, crisp edges, fine detail. Custom from 2,000 pcs, 5-15 days.

Glow-in-the-dark stickers = 3D foam stickers + phosphorescent powder: charge under light, glow when dark. Used in kids' rooms, stair markers and creative gifts. Custom from 2,000 pcs, 5-15 days.

Kids name labels = printed PVC + HF-sealed edges: smooth, washable, waterproof — a must for kindergarten season. Custom from 2,000 pcs, 5-15 days lead time.

Foil stickers press real gold or silver foil in one stroke — not metallic ink. Used for gift-box seals, food & beverage packaging and brand labels. Custom from 2,000 pcs, 5-15 days.

Transfer stickers are not one product but three processes: water transfer, heat transfer and metal transfer — different uses, different costs. Yikang makes HF foil-stamped transfer stickers. Choosing the wrong process wastes money.

PVC sticker, PVC foam sticker, PVC 3D sticker, PVC transfer sticker — buyers often mix these up. Yikang only makes PVC foam stickers (HF welding). This guide clarifies what PVC stickers you can custom-order, how pricing works, and MOQ.

There are three kinds of waterproof stickers: PVC printed, PET waterproof labels, and PVC foam stickers. This guide focuses on PVC foam stickers (HF welded, 3D, washable, no edge lift). Material to scenes to MOQ — everything in one read.

For kids reward stickers (star charts, behavior charts, encouragement) PVC foam stickers are the right pick — no edge lift, washable, phthalate-free, EN71-3 tested. Scenes, design, MOQ in one read.

Toy stickers run three ways: blind-box accessories, sticker-book pages, toy packaging labels. Yikang makes PVC foam stickers (HF welded, 3D, EN71-3 toy-safe) — a supplier toy factories and traders can use directly.

3D puffy stickers are raised stickers made from PVC roll + HF welding: 0.8-2.0mm thick, sponge-soft, lift-and-restick without residue. This guide covers the process, thickness selection, pricing and MOQ.

Guka (card decorating) is a Gen-Z DIY trend where stickers are the consumable. Flat stickers have saturated; 3D puffy stickers are the differentiator. This guide covers the sourcing logic for guka stickers.

Holographic flat stickers are a crowded market, but "holographic + 3D foam" is still blue ocean. Yikang makes holographic PVC foam stickers (HF welded, color shifts with light, sealed edges).

Princess dress-up stickers are 3D stickers with swappable outfits: one princess base + multiple re-stickable dress pieces. Yikang makes the PVC foam version (HF welded, removable adhesive). A common supplier for doll toys, stationery merch and blind-box lines. Non-IP original designs always welcome.

Wholesaling PVC stickers, the fears are middleman markups and inconsistent quality. Yikang is a Shenzhen source factory: we compound our own PVC foam rolls and run our own HF welding, so wholesalers get factory-direct pricing. This guide covers wholesale models, minimums, lead times and pitfalls.

Have artwork or material and need a factory to process toy stickers? Yikang handles two modes: OEM processing (artwork → die → finished goods) and contract work (you supply PVC roll, we charge HF processing only). This guide explains the models, cost structure and capabilities.

Puffy sticker factories vary wildly: traders posing as factories, small shops with printing but no HF welding. Yikang is a source factory in Guangming, Shenzhen: we compound our own rolls, run our own HF welding, control our own QC. Here is a factory-evaluation checklist.

A metal transfer sticker is not printed to look metallic — real metal foil is hot-pressed onto the substrate: reflective, durable, with real depth. Yikang makes metal transfers by HF + hot stamping for appliance nameplates, leather logos, garment labels and gift-box merch. This guide covers process differences, custom specs and MOQ.

Shenzhen is the most concentrated sticker supply chain in China: Bao'an does printing, Guangming does roll compounding & HF welding, Longgang does trading. The trap for buyers is traders posing as factories. Yikang sits in Guangming: white PVC rolls compounded and HF welded in-house. Here is a district-by-district guide to finding the real source.

Puffy stickers are die-based products — sampling is not "print one to look": it involves die fees, timelines and die ownership. Yikang's sampling flow: artwork confirm → process review → die-making → sample → approval, die fee credited on production, die owned by the customer. Here are the questions to ask before sampling.

Name stickers are a rare "essential consumable": kindergartens, school uniforms and facility storage all need them, with reliable annual reorders. Yikang makes HF-sealed PVC name stickers — waterproof, washable, no peeling edges — with bulk Excel-list layout support. This guide covers institutional bulk buying, tiered pricing and pitfalls.

Stationery stickers are a back-to-school and gift-shop staple — low unit cost, strong repeat, small footprint. But wholesale pitfalls are common: same design at wildly different prices, OEM stickers passed off as private label, IP risk. Yikang is a Shenzhen source factory supplying three wholesale segments: stationery shops, gift boutiques, and cross-border e-commerce. This guide covers the category mix and MOQ for each.

Guka stickers are a fast-rising 2023-2026 kids' 3D sticker category — similar process to puffy stickers but cuter themes, often sold in sets. Yikang makes custom guka stickers — removable adhesive, thin edges, shrink-wrap packaging all tunable to brand needs. Here are the common pitfalls for brand owners and gift-pack buyers.

5D emboss stickers are fuller and more layered than ordinary 3D stickers — but 90% of factories calling themselves "5D" are actually rebranding standard 3D. This guide covers what 5D really means, how to verify material and die quality, and how Yikang actually produces 5D work.

Puffy stickers (3D foam stickers) are Yikang's A-line flagship — cross-border e-commerce, toy wholesale markets, and stationery wholesalers all run volume through them. This guide covers two wholesale models (mixed-carton vs whole-design), their fit, MOQ, packaging and certification requirements.

Sticker OEM is more than "find a factory and order" — OEM, ODM and private label differ sharply in cost, MOQ and risk. This guide covers the three models, when to use which, and Yikang's edge for OEM work (in-house rolls + in-house HF, exporting to 47 countries).

"Sticker supplier" is one of the highest-volume B-end keywords — but supplier ≠ factory; 80% of "suppliers" are traders. This guide covers how to verify a real supplier, the supply-chain stability of in-house rolls, and Yikang's edge as a source supplier.

Puffy stickers are among the fastest-growing kids' 3D categories on Amazon NA/EU. This guide, from a cross-border seller's view, covers Amazon FBA inbound standards (weight/carton), required listing certifications (CPSC/ASTM F963/CPSIA/EN71-3), packaging design (FNSKU/moisture/warnings), and Yikang's supply programs.

Dongguan is a hub for printing/packaging — Humen prints, Chang'an electronics, Houjie packaging. But for foam/puffy stickers (3D forming), Dongguan has more printers than HF formers — this article unpacks the regional differences and explains why the foam-sticker source sits in Shenzhen Guangming.

B-end searchers of "sticker factory" want the source manufacturer. But 80% of what comes up is a trader or relabeler. This guide covers five hard checks for a real factory (equipment / workshop / material / certifications / audit), and how to pick by category across Shenzhen/Dongguan/Yiwu.

Halloween is the #1 fall holiday on Amazon NA/EU — puffy stickers (pumpkins, ghosts, skulls, black cats) cluster in seasonal demand. This guide covers Halloween sticker assortment, lead-time planning (60-day pre-stock), compliance (kids vs decoration lines), and Yikang's seasonal program.

PVC foam roll is the raw material for foam stickers — printers, HF processors and gift brands all buy by the roll. This guide covers PVC foam roll specs, MOQ, pricing and Yikang's B-line wholesale program (MOQ 5 rolls FOB Shenzhen).

Die-cutting is the universal process for PVC foam, flat, and adhesive stickers — cutting any shape via custom dies. This guide covers die-cutting principles, die types, MOQ, color/material combinations, and four pitfalls in custom die-cut orders.

Christmas (Dec 25) is the #1 Q4 season on Amazon NA/EU, right after Halloween. This guide covers Christmas sticker hot themes, the stocking timeline (order Aug / FBA by Sep / Black Friday push Oct), kids vs decoration compliance lines, and Yikang Christmas program.

Custom puffy (foam 3D) stickers are the mainstream play for gift brands and e-commerce sellers. This guide covers the full OEM flow: artwork requirements, sampling cycle and fees, die ownership, lead time and MOQ, plus the IP boundary across original / cute non-IP / licensed lines.

Buyers searching Yiwu stickers chase low price, low MOQ and deep stock. But Yiwu booths are mostly distribution hubs — where the goods come from, certification status, and thickness shrink are on you to verify. This guide covers Yiwu strengths, pitfalls, a verification checklist, and when to step up from Yiwu to a Shenzhen source factory.

Toy stickers (kids 3D foam / puffy) are evergreen for gift shops, baby-mom channels and Amazon kids categories. This guide covers the four hot themes, mixed-carton plays, kids-safety certification essentials (CPSC/ASTM F963/CPSIA/EN71-3), and four pitfalls in bulk buying.

Valentine (Feb 14) is the biggest Q1 gifting season in US/EU — sticker demand clusters around hearts, cupid and roses. This guide covers hot Valentine designs, the stocking timeline (order Dec / FBA by Jan / push early Feb), gift vs e-commerce channel differences, and the Yikang Valentine program.

Temu is a fully-managed low-price platform — stickers compete on extreme value and fast turnaround. This guide covers Temu sticker sellers' stocking logic (small orders, many SKUs, platform QC sampling), compliance red lines (kids certification, banned IP), and four factory-selection standards for Temu sellers.

Shopee spans six SEA markets (MY/TH/PH/VN/ID/SG) — stickers are a high-repeat category in stationery-journal and phone-deco niches. This guide covers the market structure, religious and cultural taboos (pork/dog imagery banned across Indonesia and Malaysia Muslim markets), hot themes and seasons, and how Yikang serves Shopee sellers.

EVA soft foam is the second base material for foam stickers — softer, lighter and chlorine-free versus PVC. This guide covers EVA vs PVC furong differences, specs and pricing, who buys it, density/spring-back/eco-test pitfalls, and Yikang dual-material B-line supply.

MOQ is not an arbitrary number. Tooling setup, startup waste and line changeover labor decide it. This guide breaks down the real MOQ per process, how to negotiate smaller runs, and how unit price moves with volume.

Tooling is the most disputed line item in custom sticker orders. This guide covers what a cutting die is, how the fee is calculated, who owns the tooling, whether reorders pay again, and five questions to settle before you sign.

Traders fear factory audits because they have no workshop. This guide explains why buyers audit, what social compliance and quality system audits each cover, the nine on-site checkpoints, and how to run a credible video audit when you cannot travel.

Packaging can eat 10 to 30 percent of sticker unit cost. Pick wrong and you either overspend or fail to get listed. This guide covers cost, channel fit and the mandatory requirements for retail and e-commerce — plus the correct order of decisions.

The real risk in custom sticker orders is not price, it is the safety of your artwork and tooling. A trader says they keep things confidential, but your artwork has already passed through several hands. This guide covers how to protect IP in custom stickers: what an NDA must state, who owns the die, how a factory should handle artwork, and the three things to put in writing before ordering.

Lead time is the thing buyers chase most, often without basis. Sampling and mass production run on different clocks with different constraints. This guide gives the real sticker lead-time ranges, what delays each stage, how peak-season scheduling avoids missing a ship, and how to nail down lead time before ordering.

More orders stall on payment terms than on price. The factory needs cash flow, the buyer needs goods-security, and both sides must be served. This guide covers the most common sticker export terms — T/T deposit and L/C — their risks, and the safest payment cadence for a first order with a new buyer.

FOB, CIF and EXW on a quotation are not decoration — they decide who pays freight, who carries risk and where title passes. Pick wrong and you either overpay for shipping or have no claim when goods are lost at sea. Using sticker orders, this guide explains the cost and risk split of the three terms and which to choose for different buyers.

New buyers fear opening the box to find color shift, delamination or weak adhesive. A real factory does not just glance at finished goods — it checks incoming material, in-process and outgoing shipment at three gates. This guide covers what each gate checks, how defect rate is counted, and which flaws are reworkable versus scrap.

Foam stickers are light, bulky and pressure-sensitive. Wrong shipping means freight costlier than the goods, or a crushed batch on arrival. This guide covers air vs sea vs courier, what DDP/delivered-duty-paid really means, and how we pack foam stickers to survive transit.

Repeat buyers fear the factory saying the old tooling is lost, please re-sample. A real factory archives your die, color codes and pack count, so reorders just pull the file and run — no sampling fee, no MOQ uplift. This covers how reorders save effort and what archive and pricing you should expect.

The most common reject in custom artwork is color. The red on screen is not the red in print. Without a Pantone number and an agreed tolerance, the factory guesses — and the miss rate is high. This covers locking color with Pantone, how much deviation is acceptable, and why sampling confirmation is not skippable.

Selling sticker products to EU/US/JP kids and gift channels, compliance is not optional. EN71-3, REACH, ASTM F963, CPSIA, BSCI, ISO9001 — one checklist.

Sampling fee, approved sample, bulk-seal sample — clear these three before custom foam stickers and avoid disputes later.

Peak-season pile-up or a sudden platform top-up — how rush foam-sticker orders are scheduled and the real minimum lead time, from the factory floor.

Custom-from-artwork is OEM; factory-designed is ODM. We do both for foam stickers — clear the mold & IP ownership and you avoid the pitfall.

2000 sheets is the standard MOQ, but low-MOQ custom is negotiable. Die, material and scheduling set the real boundary.

Exclusives need a private die stored apart;通用的 shapes reuse a public die to spread cost. Clear ownership & reuse and IP stays safe.

Dual-station single-head + single-station machines rotate, two shifts a day, thousands of plates. In-house foam roll means capacity isn’t choked by material.

100% inspection + golden-sample check + outgoing AQL — defect rate in single digits. Complaints answered in 24h, with replenishment or rework.

How factories ship sticker samples, which international couriers to use, and whether freight-collect or prepaid saves trouble. Plain talk from the factory floor.

The same “$0.03/pc” can differ by 2x. Tax-inclusive or not, MOQ tiers, mold cost separated or bundled — a factory walks you through each line.

Want stars, animals, or logo outlines cut? How fine die-cutting goes, how tooling is priced, and whether too-small loses clean edges — a factory explains in one go.

Yikang calenders its own EVA soft foam roll — feeding its own foam stickers and sold by roll to print houses. Making the material in-house means lead time and quality stay in our own hands.

Wrong artwork means the sample comes back mismatched and must be redone. How to send AI/PDF, what resolution, and who owns the IP artwork — a factory explains once.

Whether a sticker stays or peels and re-sticks comes down to the adhesive. Solvent / water-based / removable / strong-tack / temperature-resistant — pick by where it sticks; a factory gives the table.

Japanese buyers value stable lead time, smooth Japanese correspondence, and complete certifications. We have done many Japan orders; 5-15 day lead time vs local 1.5 months is the hard edge.

Want to skip the trader and buy foam stickers direct from a China factory? Inquiry, sampling, audit, payment, logistics — step by step, plus the rookie pitfalls.
