Good to know
Before you order.
Which finish should I pick?
Gloss works well for photos and bright designs. Matt works well for text-heavy designs, corporate brands and anything that needs writing on or reading under bright lights.
Pairing with other finishes
Matt lamination is often paired with spot UV or foil for a bold contrast. Ask us about combining finishes.
Frequently asked questions
Does lamination take longer?
Lamination usually adds a little time to the job. We confirm the turnaround in your quote.
Can you laminate just one side?
Yes, one or both sides, depending on the product.
Can I write on a laminated card?
Writing is easier on matt lamination, as gloss can smudge.
