Encapsulation & Laminating Services

Our expert encapsulation and laminating services allow us to encapsulate your printed media.

Encapsulation is perfect for increasing the life of the printed sheet with the added advantage of being able to wipe it down which means that it can be used for solutions such as encapsulated menus, laminated passes, point of sale, and heavy use information cards and catalogues.

We can encapsulate from A7 to A1 with the use of different thickness film with various finishes such as matt, soft touch lamination and gloss lamination. Allied to our die cutting facility this can provide a quick and inexpensive solution to prolonging the life of your printed media.
