Laminating
Which laminate finish should I choose?
It depends on the look you want. Five finishes, and they all behave differently.
- Gloss: clear, shiny, high colour contrast. The standard choice for most stickers and product labels.
- Matte: softer, no glare, reads more premium. Ideal for planner stickers, minimalist branding and photography.
- Holographic: rainbow-reflective shift over your print. Transforms flat artwork into something that catches the light.
- Glitter: fine sparkle over the print. Strong decorative finish, popular for kids' stickers and giftables.
- Leather, cross-hatch, cat eyes: specialist textured finishes for when you want stickers to feel physically different, not just look different.
