  • Laminating Finish

    As a leading China packaging box supplier, Shanghai DE Printed Box provides the laminating finish for the custom printed paper boxes and custom paper bags.

    What is Laminating

    Laminating is a post-printing process in which a thin protective transparent plastic film is applied to the surface of the printed paperboard.

    Laminating Purpose

    The custom printed paper box is laminated to protect it from stains and moisture, to increase its strength and durability, and to add sheen and vibrancy to its ink.

    The film can efficiently improve the rigidity of the printed paper box and make the paper box water-proof to some extent in humid conditions. What's more important is that the laminating can keep the printing color crisp for years.

    The glossy laminating paper boxes and matte laminating paper boxes gives the packaging box either a glossy or a matte finish outside by laminating a thin PET film onto the paperboard. The finish is very common in folding paper boxes, E flute, F flute corrugated boxes, rigid paper boxes, cosmetic paper boxes and custom paper bags.

    Glossy Laminating

    The glossy laminating provides a more brilliant glossy sheen to the custom paper box than the UV glossy coating or varnishing. It is a great a way to give a clean modern look to the custom paper box. The glossy printed paper box have a shiny finish and is great when you want to make the colors pop. Meantime, the glossy laminating works effectively with the silver foil stamping to achieve the very brilliant visual effect.

    Matte Laminating

    While the matte laminating can be an effective way to give the custom paper box a nice smooth look and a luxury quality feel. It works great with designs and color pallets that are subdued. Having a matte finish will also take away any glare and will often look cleaner as fingerprints won’t show after someone had touched it.

    Also, the matte laminate is a great substrate to apply the foil stamping finish and spot UV finish. The great contrast makes the color looks more vibrant and crisp.
