Silk Coated Matt Lamination Spot UV
This stock is considered the default choice
for professional print. Silk coated stock
as a slight sheen, giving vibrant colours,
ithout a full gloss finish so it’s still easy to read from.
Uncoated
No shine, uncoated stocks are the easiest to write on and are popular in business stationery items.
For a subtle yet highly sophisticated finish, matt lamination gives your print a smooth feel while reducing any glare. Matt laminated products have the added option for spot UV embellishments.
Gloss lamination
As the name suggests, gloss lamination adds a shiny coating to your work.
Colours are made brighter and gradients are exaggerated – great for dramatic photography.
Spot UV is used to highlight specific elements of your design with a high-gloss coating. Use a high-build finish for even more texture and make your print truly memorable or for something more subtle opt for a low-build finish.
Foiling
Add a flash of metallic colour to your designs with gold or silver foiling – a sure- fire way to make your print stand out and add a professional touch to your designs.
Gloss Coated
For a real shine, you can choose our gloss coated stock. This stock gives your colours and photos an added vibrancy without the expense of added gloss lamination.
Soft-touch Lamination
Also known as velvet lamination, soft- touch does exactly as it says on the tin – it makes your print soft to the touch. This is a very stylish and delicate print finish.
