Table of Contents
Laminations are much more than your typical label finish. Soft touch laminate is highly unique and isn’t just available anywhere! Good thing at Sticker Mountain, we invest in originality! We’re dedicated to education and staying one step ahead of the industry. Today’s blog will teach you about soft-touch matte lamination and why it’s a fantastic way to boost your custom product labels.
What is Soft-Touch Matte Lamination?
Soft-Touch Matte Lamination is a thin film made out of Bi-axially Oriented Polypropylene or BOPP for short. What makes this particular laminate so unique compared to regular Matte Lamination is the inviting, luxuriously smooth surface. It gives your label a velvety texture, instantly boosting the first impression of your product to a high-end premium experience.
The application for this adhesive is a little bit different than our other two options. First the label is “flood-coated” with this special liquid adhesive. It goes through this pool, being completely covered in the this “glue”.
Next the soft-touch laminate is pressed on to the sticky side of the label. These are “married” together and cured through a UV light. This ensures the lamination isn’t coming off.
By using this method, rather than heat-activated lamination, we provide a quicker turnaround time for your premium labels.
Benefits of Soft-Touch Matte Lamination
there are many benefits to purchasing a unique lamination like this. For example:
- has moisture barrier that's fingerprint and scuff resistant
