Laminators
Laminating your documents is a great way to keep them looking new and professional. At Discount Office, we carry a variety of laminators from top brands like Fellowes, GBC, Leitz, Rexel and Xyron. Whether you need a small, portable laminator for at-home use or a heavy-duty laminator for the office, we have you covered. And with our low prices, you can afford to laminate all your important documents!
Laminators come in different types, brands, qualities, and sizes. Some common types of laminators are thermal laminators, cold laminators, and roll laminators. Thermal laminators use heat to activate the adhesive on the laminate film, cold laminators use pressure-sensitive adhesives that do not require heat activation, and roll laminators evenly spread an adhesive onto the laminate film as it passes through rollers.
Some popular brands of laminators are GBC, Fellowes, Leitz and Rexel. Generally, the higher the price, the better the quality of the laminator. When choosing a quality for your needs, consider how often you will be using the machine and what type of documents or pictures you will be wanting to laminate. For occasional use at home with regular sized documents, an entry level model will do just fine. If you need to laminate large items or plan on using the machine more frequently, than a mid-range or industrial grade model would be a better investment.
Laminator size is determined by both the maximum document width it can accommodate as well as the thickness (or gauge) of material it can handle. The most common sizes are 9”, 12”, 18”, and 24” wide models that can take 3mil or 5mil thick pouches.
So whether you are looking to preserve artwork or important business documents, there is a perfect laminate solution out there for you!
