Lamination is designed to provide a higher level of aesthetic sensation and a longer lifespan, so we encourage anyone who needs it to try lamination. To help more people understand lamination, this article answers questions about poster lamination in laminated prints.
Why do I need to laminate after printing?
Prints are not only waterproof and durable after lamination, but also increase the aesthetics of the prints. Commonly used in books, magazines, posters, business cards and other printed materials.
What is a laminate finish on poster?
Posters are an effective tool to advertise products or services, and they are often hung in public places such as streets, shopping malls and stations. In order to ensure the quality of the poster, it is often necessary to add a laminate finish to enhance the protection and visual effect of the poster.
This laminate finish is a type of film that can be used exclusively for lamination and there are two main types:
Glossy film
1. High Transparency: The glossy film has high transparency, which can clearly show the original colour and details of the product and provide a better visual experience.
2. Anti-scratch performance: The surface of glossy film has been specially treated to have good anti-scratch performance, which can resist a certain degree of physical wear and prolong the service life of the product.
Matt film
1. Soft texture: Matt film has a soft texture and may be more suitable for certain design styles.
2. Anti-fingerprint performance: the matte film surface may have a certain anti-fingerprint effect, for products that often touch the surface, can keep relatively clean.
