Why do posters need to be laminated? Posters play an important role in daily life. They are usually used for advertising activities, promoting products or services, and can also be used to convey information, promote ideas, and even decorate the environment.
In the business world, posters are an important marketing tool to attract people's attention and motivate them to take action. In addition, posters are often used in schools, hospitals, public places, and other places to convey important information or remind people of precautions.Overall, posters play a variety of roles in everyday life and are a very common visual communication tool.
The main reasons why posters need to be laminated include protecting and enhancing the durability of the poster. Lamination effectively protects posters from external factors such as water, dust, and stains, prolonging the life of the poster.In addition, lamination enhances the color vibrancy and glossiness of the poster, making it look more appealing.Most importantly, lamination prevents posters from being damaged by folding or rubbing, keeping them neat and beautiful.
How are posters laminated?
Common lamination methods for posters include the use of hot lamination and cold lamination, where a clear film is laminated to the surface of the poster. This not only protects the poster but also enhances its visual appeal and prolongs its life.
How to choose a poster laminator?
1. Hot laminator adopts hot melt adhesive lamination technology, which requires heating and melting the hot melt adhesive, and then applying it to the laminated material. The laminated and printed materials are combined by pressure on heated adhesive rollers and then cut after cooling.
This type of machine requires heat during the lamination process and therefore requires heating time and is relatively inefficient. However, hot lamination provides better protection and makes the poster more durable and waterproof.
2. Cold lamination is the process of bonding the poster to the film and backing using the pressure of the glue and a cold laminator. Hot lamination relies on the high temperatures and pressures of the hot laminator to complete the installation of the photo. In contrast, cold lamination is less expensive, but hot lamination produces better results and the photos are stored longer after lamination.
The choice of cold or hot laminator depends on the size and number of posters and the level of protection required. The choice of laminating method needs to be weighed against the actual needs and budget.
