Pouch Laminators Frequently asked Questions

- What are pouch laminators?
- Why would I use pouch laminator instead of a roll laminator?
- What type of maintenance is required?
- Why do I need a carrier?
- Do pouch laminators require a power supply?
Pouch laminators use heated rollers to seal the pouch with heat and pressure. Pouch laminators come in different sizes in order to best serve your laminating needs.
Pouch laminators are designed for moderate use in the office or home. These inexpensive machines are quite effective. However, for continuous, large-volume lamination projects, a roll laminator performs more efficiently.
No maintenance is required, if you always use a pouch carrier and keep the machine in a clean environment.
You must always use a carrier when laminating. The carrier keeps the film from sticking to the rollers and helps seal the pouch more effectively.
Yes, pouch laminators require a power supply. 120V is the standard power supply, however, many of our models (check specifications) can be ordered for 220V outlet operation.

- What is the difference between "standard" and "select" film?
- Should I laminate with thick film or thin film?
Standard pouch film is basic laminate film.
Select film is high quality, glare-resistant film. This film works best when laminating glossy materials, such as photographs.
This depends on your needs. When ordering, consider the purpose of the laminate, and the abuse it may receive.
