What Makes a 3D Hologram Sticker Different
A conventional hologram label produces a flat, single-plane shimmer. A depth-effect 3D hologram sticker is recorded so the image sits in layers: foreground elements appear to float above a background plane, and the parallax shifts as the label tilts. That layered structure is what buyers mean when they ask for "true depth" rather than a surface rainbow.
Because the effect is built into the mastering and replication of the label itself, it survives normal handling and stays readable under ordinary indoor light. It also gives your inspection team a fast visual test: a genuine label shows continuous, smooth layer movement, while a photocopied or generic hologram tends to look flat or broken.
We produce depth-effect 3D hologram stickers as a separate product family from our flat laser labels. That separation matters at the specification stage, because depth imagery, hidden-image features, and sealing constructions are quoted and sampled on their own basis.
Where Depth-Effect Labels Earn Their Place
Depth imagery is most useful when the label has to do two jobs at once: authenticate and seal. Common applications include carton and pouch seals, bottle and cap seals, warranty seals on electronics and instruments, and tamper-evident closures on premium consumer goods.
For sealing use, the label is normally applied so that opening the package disturbs the label. A depth-effect 3D hologram sticker adds a second layer of deterrence here, because the layered image is much harder to reproduce than a flat foil. If your application also needs a covert layer on top of the visible depth effect, a 3D hidden-image anti-counterfeiting label is the relevant option in this family: the hidden image stays out of sight at normal viewing angles and is read by eye as the viewing angle changes.
If your program instead relies on serialization, QR verification, or scratch-off codes, tell us at inquiry stage. Those features can be discussed alongside the depth imagery, and our broader range of holographic security labels is the right place to start if you are still deciding between depth, laser, and combination constructions.
Specifications, Pricing, and MOQ
The table below uses the figures for products in this family. Treat them as starting points for budgeting, not as a quotation for your specific artwork and construction.
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| High-quality security sealing waterproof 3D holographic hologram sticker | US$0.15–0.30 per piece; MOQ 10,000 |
| Custom laser security scratch-off QR code serial number 3D hologram sticker | US$0.15–0.30 per piece; MOQ 10,000 |
| Example range item | 3D hidden-image anti-counterfeiting label |
Both products sit in the same per-piece band, so the practical cost driver is usually construction and feature set rather than the depth effect alone. Waterproof sealing stock, scratch-off layers, QR and serial-number personalization, and finishing all affect the final quote.
Manufacturing and Quality Background
Shenzhen Huaxin Anti-Counterfeiting Technology Co., Ltd. has manufactured security labels in Shenzhen since 2008. We operate a 1,500 m² factory with 60–100 employees and a monthly capacity of 510,000 to 1,000,000 labels, and we work across 60+ anti-counterfeiting technologies. Our operations have been audited by TÜV Rheinland (report MIC-ASR262171), and we can share the audit documentation with buyers who need it for supplier qualification.
That capacity range suits both single-SKU sealing programs and multi-SKU portfolios where several products share one holographic design language. For programs with more than one label type, it also helps to plan the artwork family together, so the depth-effect seals and any flat laser or tamper-evident labels read as one system on the shelf.
What to Send With Your Inquiry
To quote accurately, we need four things: the substrate the label will be applied to (carton, film, glass, or metal), the seal behavior you want (resealable, tamper-evident, or destructive on removal), the feature set (depth imagery only, hidden image, scratch-off, QR, serial numbering), and your annual or per-order volume against the 10,000-piece MOQ. Artwork files and any existing label sample help us match the depth structure you have in mind.
If you are still comparing constructions, review our holographic laser security labels before finalizing, since some programs combine a depth-effect seal with a laser-applied data label on the same carton.
Request a Quote
Send your substrate, seal requirement, feature list, and volume, and we will come back with a sample proposal and pricing for your depth-effect program. You can reach the team through our contact page, or start by reviewing the full holographic security labels range and the holographic laser security labels line to confirm which construction fits. We quote against your artwork, not against a catalog page, so the more detail you send, the faster the response.
FAQ
What is the difference between a 3D hologram sticker and a flat laser label?
A depth-effect 3D hologram sticker carries a layered image with visible parallax as it tilts; a flat laser label produces a surface shimmer without that layered structure. The two are separate product families here and are specified, sampled, and quoted differently. If you are unsure which your application needs, describe the inspection method your team will use and we will recommend one.
What is the minimum order quantity and price for these labels?
Both products in this family are quoted at US$0.15–0.30 per piece with an MOQ of 10,000 pieces. The exact figure within that band depends on construction, substrate, and features such as scratch-off layers or QR and serial-number personalization. Send your specification and we will confirm pricing against it.
Can the label include a hidden image as well as the depth effect?
Yes. A 3D hidden-image anti-counterfeiting label is part of this range: the depth imagery remains visible, and a hidden image is read by eye as the viewing angle changes. Tell us at inquiry stage if the hidden feature is for field inspectors or for internal verification, as that affects how we set it up.
