Why soft-touch
Premium protection. Luxury finish.
-
Luxury matte finish
A silky, low-glare surface with the tactile feel of high-end packaging. Blacks print deeper and colours look richer under it.
-
Anti-fingerprint
The matte surface resists fingerprints and smudges, so covers, menus and cards that get handled all day still look clean.
-
Thermal, any laminator
Heat-activated film. The rolls run on any hot roll laminator (12 to 27 in.); the pouches in any pouch laminator rated for 3 and 5 mil.
-
Finishing-friendly
Takes spot UV, foil and scoring after lamination — soft-touch is the usual base for premium covers and packaging.

FAQ
Soft-touch questions, answered.
Roll film or pouches?
Roll film if you have a roll laminator: lowest cost per sheet, any sheet size up to the roll width, and continuous production. Pouches if you have a pouch laminator or only laminate a few pieces at a time — same finish, no setup.
Which core do I need?
Match your laminator's supply shaft: most desktop roll laminators take 1 in. cores, wide-format and production machines 3 in. Both are stocked in every width.
What temperature and speed for the roll film?
Start around 105–115 °C (220–240 °F) at slow-to-medium speed and adjust for your stock. Soft-touch is forgiving but likes a little extra dwell on heavy covers.
3 mil or 5 mil pouches?
3 mil stays flexible — covers, flyers, anything folded into a binder. 5 mil is noticeably stiffer — menus, cards and counter pieces handled all day.
Does the matte finish dull the print?
No. Soft-touch kills glare, not colour: blacks read deeper and saturated colours richer than under gloss. Keep very fine reversed-out type above 6 pt.
Can it be foiled, spot-UV coated or written on?
Yes — soft-touch is the usual base for spot UV and foil. Permanent marker and most pressure-sensitive labels adhere; dry-erase wipes off less cleanly than gloss.
How fast does it ship?
From our Toronto warehouse, usually the same or next business day, across Canada and to the USA. Case quantities on request.
