Lamination

Protective and decorative finishes that suit the print, its handling and the look you want.

Print professional checking production — Source Select.

We help choose finishing for compatible printed materials. Matte, gloss, soft-touch and textured options have different effects; suitable foil work is considered as a separate decorative process.

Protection for the application

The way a print is handled and displayed guides the choice of film. Compatibility with the material matters as much as the preferred appearance.

The look and feel

Gloss, matte, soft-touch and selected textures change the surface of a print. Samples can help establish the finish you want.

Decorative foil

Foil can highlight selected artwork on suitable stock. It has its own preparation and production requirements and should not be treated as interchangeable with lamination.

Large-format finishing

Cold-roll and heat-assisted finishing can be used for suitable graphics and films, with compatibility checked before production.

Finishing as part of the job

Cutting, folding, adhesive and later handling can affect finishing choices. We review those steps together before the job is produced.

Plan the finish

Share the print or its specifications, dimensions, quantity, intended handling and exposure, desired finish and any later cutting or folding.

Discuss a sample

A sample or test piece can help establish the appropriate finish before committing to the full order.
