Laminating is a post-printing process for paper printed matter such as paper packaging boxes, handbags, and picture albums.
The matte film has a foggy surface, and the surface of the product covered with the matte film is not reflective, elegant, and has a matte texture. The reason for this state is that matte frosting is used during the coating process, so it looks more artistic. And it feels bumpy to the touch, not as smooth as a light film. The surface color is soft and the appearance is quiet and elegant. It is often used in high-end packaging industries, such as clothing packaging, gift packaging, tea packaging and other industries.
Bright film is a bright surface. The surface of the product covered with bright film is bright, as bright as a mirror, and has strong expressive power. Generally, it can be effectively distinguished from the surface of the printed matter. The bright film reflects the ambient light, which is a mirror reflection of the picture book after the light film. The surface will be very shiny and the gloss is very good. On flat surfaces such as hardcover book covers, cardboard boxes, etc., the effect of covering the bright film is still good.
The cost of sub-film coating is generally higher than that of bright film coating.
General printed matter will use the above two processes to improve the texture of the finished product, and some of them will also use partial laminating in order to meet the needs of printing. In the printing process, bopp film is often used, and its film composition is BOPP+EVA double-layer composite film. Thick paper will become brittle after glazing, but it will become flexible and resistant to folding after being coated. Nowadays, the post-printing process of packaging cartons and handbags generally choose laminating. Both light film and dumb film will use this material, but it is different in the later operation process. But it will not be too complicated, and companies can also choose the one with or without the adhesive layer according to their own needs. The adhesive layer can effectively guarantee the durability of the album. In the long run, it can save costs for the enterprise.
In addition to bright film and matt film, other processes can also be used, such as uv glazing, bronzing and silvering. UV glazing can make the printed matter more durable, and the bronzing process can effectively enhance the luxury of the printed matter, but the price Will be relatively expensive. If the enterprise does not have special requirements, the use of light film and dumb film technology can effectively enhance the texture of the album.
