Do you want to protect your important documents? If yes, then it is the right time for you to consider laminating your papers.

To preserve your documents
Another reason why laminating documents is a good thing is to preserve them. They can stay in a good condition for years, and amazingly, it won’t fade or yellow as easily. Help make your documents resistant to the effects of nature by going for UV pouches. These provide protection to your sensitive work from harmful sun rays.
Prepare your documents for excessive handling
Paper is fragile material, which means if you handle it too much, then it will wear down and get damaged. Extra protection is crucial, especially for those documents that you need to handle a lot. If you know you are going to use the same paper again and again then consider covering it in plastic. In the long run it will save you money (as well as time) as you don’t need to re-print your documents.
Enhance the look
If you want to enhance the look and feel of your documents, then the best thing you can do is laminate them. Colour documents, presentations or instructional charts will not only last longer but stand out and shine.
What are the lamination types?
If you have never purchased a laminating machine, then you may probably don’t know that there are two different ways of laminating documents. If you are planning to buy yourself a machine make sure you have the right one for you.
Hot Pouch Laminators
These are the most popular form. They are used for encapsulation documents within a pouch that comes with two connected sides in which document is placed before sealed.
Cold Pouch Laminators
This option is best for heat-sensitive documents, such as photos & faxes. They offer much better UV protection as compared to the hot version.
