Laminated Business Cards
A laminated card combines paper with an added film. Compare a matte, gloss or other requested effect against glare, handling, handwriting and QR-reading needs.
Laminated Paper — In Detail
Laminated cards combine a paper base with a film finish, so specify both rather than selecting only matte or gloss. Mark any area used for handwriting and test the intended pen on the chosen finish. If foil, spot varnish or a QR code is included, agree the layer sequence and check readability after the finishing choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Matte or gloss lamination?
Compare glare, photographs, dark backgrounds and QR codes on actual samples. Matte does not automatically mean writable, and gloss is not best for every design.
What affects lamination cost?
Film choice, coverage on one or both sides, quantity and additional finishing. Compare quotes with identical stock and quantities so the film’s cost is distinguishable.
Do both sides need lamination?
Decide according to use. Identify the side containing a photograph, QR code or writing area and agree each surface requirement separately.
Can I write on a laminated card?
The labels matte and gloss do not decide this alone. Test the actual pen on the finished surface, checking drying and smearing, and mark the writing area in the artwork.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm paper, film, covered sides, size, quantity and finishing layers. Establish minimum quantity and timing in the offer; lamination does not mean complete waterproofing.
