First of all, it is only fair to clarify what laminating means as a process. Laminating is ,in fact, an auxiliary operation, that consists of covering prints and documents with a thin layer of protective plastic.
The process is executed by applying,using heat, a plastic film on both sides or only on one side of the document, making it ideal for heavily used documents or exposed to UV radiation or external factors.
Besides the protective role, it also plays an important aesthetic role,having the possibility to choose between glossy and matt lamination, documents laminated as such being offered a flawless look.
Document lamination offers them durability and special elegance. In terms of size, can be laminated documents in standard A4 and A3 or any less than A3 format. Laminating, therefore, prolongs the life of your prints! It is strongly recommend for all “outside” works such as car decoration, panels or windows.
Second, lamination can be: standard by applying a film of 70/75 microns, for an average duration of life or “UV”: this is achieved by applying on the desired surface of a special film that is designed to protect the print against the action of sunlight.
Also it is worth mentioning that there are other services similar to lamination: ANTIGRAFITTI lamination – achieved by applying on the desired area special foils to protect prints against vandalization, and applying SECURITY foil (burglary) – designed according to European regulations, for all public institutions, schools, kindergartens, shops.
