Looking for a top-of-the line way to make your books and publications stand out in the crowded marketplace?
Talk to Copresco’s production department about the many benefits of cover lamination.
“The lamination process enhances the aesthetics and adds value to printed pieces by giving the impression of higher quality and importance,” says President Steve Johnson.
Lamination and digital on-demand printing go hand in hand and are just the right fit for Copresco’s production of your short-run publications, books and manuals.
Lamination provides additional strength, durability and permanence advantages as well as valuable protection against fingerprints, smudges, scratches, rubbing, wrinkles and stains.
In addition, laminated publications are resistant to excessive humidity.
Since laminates are transparent, they will not damage your various printed projects.
In addition to their handsome appearance, the unmatched durability features of lamination give books long shelf life, particularly for heavy-use applications, such as research and reference volumes, which are used on a daily or recurring basis.
There are many ways to protect the outside cover of your book and to enhance its appearance, including petroleum-based varnishes, ultraviolet (UV) coatings, water-based aqueous coatings, and film laminates.
The protective finish and stellar appearance of laminating far outperforms all other methods.
Varnishes and coatings might be cheaper options, but the cost/benefit of laminating so far outshines all other methods.
That’s why Copresco offers film laminating exclusively.
Lamination is available in both gloss and matte finishes for two very different effects.
Gloss laminating reflects light and imparts deeper, brighter colors for an eye-catching look that attracts attention.
Matte finish provides a more subtle, barely perceptible elegance, while still providing all the protective benefits of lamination.
Feather-touch laminate is a matte finish “on steroids” and has become our most popular laminate. It imparts a striking satiny-smooth look and feel that is both visually and tactilely pleasing.
Feather-(or soft-touch) laminate maximizes the physical, touchable quality of print that electronic media cannot duplicate.
Film lamination is most popular on the covers of perfect bound (soft cover) books, which benefit greatly from the rub resistance and shelf appeal that lamination imparts.
There are all sorts of projects that will benefit from cover laminations:
