Compare the prices of cold laminators

Cold laminators are becoming increasing common. At first, they were once thought of the office mainstay but as prices have dropped considerably over the years, they have found an increasing new space in the humble home. With such many versatile uses, it can be hard to find the right one to match your budget. Here, we will be comparing prices of them.

About cold lamination

Why choose cold? Cold lamination machines are often thought of as second best when compared to hot lamination. However, with the increasing popularity of digital photography as an example, cold lamination is often the preferred choice. This being that many types of photographic materials simply cannot stand up to the heat from hot lamination process. Of course, it is not just photos which can suffer from this as many other materials such as injet ink can also perish under the hot lamination process.
Things to consider before buying Just what do you plan on using your laminator for? Are you just going to be using it for laminating photos? Or perhaps you just want to print and laminate recipes which will be durable for continued use in the kitchen? Perhaps you want to create posters or suchlike for a local club or group? If so, size matters. For home use, you tend to get small document laminators, standard A4 laminators but increasingly popular are A3 laminators. It is worth taking this size difference into account. For even larger purposes (which tends to be more used in the workplace) are roll laminators. These are fairly large and use a cold roll laminate. The prices for these machines can vary massively.
