Everyone has their own ideas about lamination. However, there are many consumers out there who do not understand the process. Knowing this, we feel it is vital to shed a bit of light on some of the claims that have been made over the years. So, read on if you want to know more about lamination.
An expensive endeavour?
For one thing, many people believe that lamination is too expensive. What you need to do here is consider the value that you are providing to the work. A laminate coating can easily do this. When you realise the benefits, you will discover that laminating is not that expensive. If anything is a low margin commodity, it is simple ink on paper. Taking a lot of effort and time to augment your print using a laminate finish increases its value. In the end, it shall have a longer lifespan.
Doesn’t it take a while to laminate?
There are also those that believe lamination takes too long. This is all about perception. Of course, the procedure is one that can take time. This occurs when you process using the sheets per hour strategy instead of using a commercial or modern press. Yet, an increasing number of cost efficient production machines are finding their way onto the market. They allow for incredibly efficient in-house production to take place. If you are ever in need of fast lamination services though, please let us know.
Dye-cuts
Our next piece of false information is that you can’t dye-cut laminate. It is actually possible as long as the right circumstances are in place. You also need to use a suitable process. This is actually an approach that is very popular. It stretches laminate past its regular perimeters to produce new usable techniques.
Not enough finishes
Some are even under the assumption that laminates come in matte and gloss finishes, and no others. In this day and age, this is a false statement. The market actually has an impressive number of finishes on offer. Other design elements include holographic effects, tactile additions, linen, and leather.
It is bad for the environment
Last but not least, we would like to point out that laminate is indeed eco-friendly. Today, it is entirely possible to develop biodegradable film.
