Pressure Sensitive Lamination:
The pressure sensitive lamination process doesn't require heat, using roller pressure to bond the adhesive film to the prints, being a somewhat quicker and easier lamination process. Pressure sensitive films are also known as cold films are specifically designed for general graphics, ideally perfect for pop-up stands and roller banners. Our GMP pressure sensitive films provides a durable lifespan of indoor use lasting 8-10 years and an outdoor life span of 2-3 years. Please note our cold/pressure sensitive films are designed for floor graphics or vehicles graphics where more flexibility is needed.
