Benefits of Specialty Coatings

Consumers have an affinity for visually compelling 3D experiences. That’s why specialty coatings and laminations are being applied more and more to marketing efforts across a wide range of industries. These kinds of coatings can help you:

• Make a greater impact with consumers while reinforcing the premium quality of your brand through amazing visual and tactile appeal

• Help differentiate your product from competitors that choose lower-quality print options

• Protect your materials to ensure a longer shelf life (and also reinforce the quality of your brand)

• Reduce production time via rapid drying, enabling faster shipping and customer satisfaction

• Resist smudges, fingerprints, scrapes, and dirt more than conventional inks

• Flood the entire page or apply on a spot basis to accent a portion of your product

Lamination: Combining Protection with High-Impact Appearance & Feel

Lamination can add durability, a unique finish and memorable visual impact to your printed materials while protecting them from moisture, dirt, fingerprints, and sun exposure. Because it protects and enhances vibrant ink colors and quality paper, it is an excellent print enhancement for a multitude of marketing materials, especially restaurant menus, outdoor signage and displays, and any marketing material that you want to weather-proof.

• High Gloss Liquid Laminate: Provides a sheen and protection that is reflective of top-quality, commercial print projects. For projects that require a sleek feel with sturdy protection, high gloss liquid laminate is an interesting option.

• Matte Liquid Laminate: Help increase visual and tactile appeal by adding a smooth texture and depth to the ink. Applied in the same way as the high gloss, matte liquid laminate creates a rich, classy look that reduces shine. The finished paper has a "soft" feeling, like Egyptian cotton sheets.

• Liquid Laminate Spot Finish: This is a special effect that will add an extra pop to printed materials. Spot liquid laminate is an ideal method to add subtle highlights and unique textures. This is a cost-effective way to add dimension.
