Question

How long do soft touch laminated cards last?

Answer

Considerably longer than uncoated or standard coated cards. The lamination film acts as a protective shell over the print, shielding it from the everyday abuse a card takes in a wallet or bag. That is exactly why soft touch is a favorite for cards meant to stay in circulation.

  • Scratch and scuff resistance: the film takes the wear instead of the ink.
  • Light moisture protection: shrugs off small spills and damp hands.
  • UV resistance: slows the fading that sunlight causes on unprotected stock.
  • Cards keep their velvety feel and clean color after weeks in a wallet or card holder.
