What is soft-touch laminated printing?
Soft touch lamination is one of the best-loved finishes and trusted by thousands of marketers to give their print an incomparable quality. With a velvety-soft touch and a durable surface there’s no wonder it’s a popular choice for direct mail, brochure covers, postcards and more.
This finish is famed for achieving that can’t-put-it-down effect but there’s more to it than just cosmetics. It also protects the print from scratching and does a much better job of bringing out the vibrant colours of print; a true all-rounder. We’re about affordable yet striking solutions and soft touch laminate is one of the most perfect examples. You want to find some way of breaking the mould without breaking the bank? Well, here’s a start.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What do I need to look out for with soft-touch laminate printing?
Soft-touch lamination is truly awesome and we can’t recommend it enough. You just need to watch out for large areas of solid, dark colours such as black, navy, grey etc. This laminate is likely to show up incriminating fingerprints or marks if it has a dark colour beneath it, so bear that in mind when you’re designing for soft-touch laminated print.
How does laminated printing actually work?
Laminating is essentially an ultra-thin sheet of plastic that’s heat-sealed to the surface of the paper once it’s printed. This has the effect of protecting the print from water droplets, scratches and dog-eared corners. There are also a few alternatives available including anti-scuff laminate and textures such as fabric or leather effects.
