Two Sided Lamination


Two Sided Lamination: The most common process for preserving & protecting paper. Two sided lamination has several variables: trim, film thickness & film finish.

Trims
	Standard or Sealed - is a 1/8 inch film border around the entire edge of the paper.
	Flush - is where the film stops at the edge of the paper
	Other trims available upon request
Film Thickness
	1.7 mil -adds gloss and light protection to paper but leaves it very flexible
	3.0 mil - less rigid and thinner than a standard business card
	5.0 mil - rigid and thick as a playing card as in Spades, Hearts, Diamonds and Clubs
	10.0 mil - rigid and thick as a credit card
Film Finish
	Gloss: The most common, low cost film, with a clear shiny finish
	Satin Luster: A more expensive film with a low gloss sheen finish
	Matte: Also a higher priced film with a glare free, no gloss finish
	Matte Gloss Combo: A cost effective way of obtaining the benefits of a matte finish on the front side and the cost savings of a gloss finish on the backside
