Film Laminating
The finish of printed paper is not only a good opportunity to
polish up print-products aesthetically, but especially also an
effectively method to extend its durability considerably.
Film lamination is the ultimate way of printfinishing.
Through this method the paper or print product becomes a sealed
and premium print product– noble impression, considerably tear
and gritresistant and safe from moisture.
The choice of foil depends on usage of printproduct, the intense
impact and of course of visual aspects.
Important therefore: glossy foil is used, when end-product shall
be very noble and brilliant colours are expected, however matt
foil appear antireflective and provides a better readability of
texts.
