Product Features

Sparkling Lamination Film incorporates specific technical characteristics that support reliable performance in demanding production environments.

  • Embedded Particle Technology: Metallic particles suspended within film structure rather than surface-applied
  • Controlled Adhesive System: Pressure-sensitive adhesive formulated for bubble-free application
  • Moisture Barrier Properties: Reduces humidity transmission to protect underlying printed materials
  • Scratch-Resistant Surface: Clear top coat provides protection against handling abrasion
  • Temperature Stability: Maintains dimensional integrity across typical operating temperature ranges
  • Low Static Generation: Reduces dust attraction during processing and handling
  • Optical Clarity: High-transparency base material ensures underlying colors remain vibrant
  • Reel Stability: Wound under controlled tension to prevent telescoping and edge damage

Product Applications

Sparkling Lamination Film is designed to add a subtle, glittering visual effect to printed graphics. This film incorporates fine, reflective particles within a clear laminate layer, enhancing visual appeal under ambient lighting without overpowering the original design.

Application Tips

Lighting Consideration

The sparkling effect is most pronounced under direct or angled light sources. Test under intended lighting conditions before full production.

Application Pressure

Use a firm, even pressure when applying with a squeegee. Excessive force may slightly dull the sparkling effect.

Ink Drying Time

Ensure printer ink is fully cured (24-48 hours) before laminating to prevent adhesive interaction and potential clouding.

Cutting & Trimming

Use a sharp blade. The glitter particles can increase blade wear; inspect and change blades more frequently for clean cuts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common inquiries regarding Sparkling Lamination Film specifications, processing requirements, and application considerations.

What printing methods are compatible with Sparkling Lamination Film?

This film is compatible with most digital and conventional printing methods including offset lithography, flexography, digital toner, and UV inkjet systems. For optimal results, we recommend testing adhesion with specific ink systems, particularly with heavily pigmented or metallic inks that may require adjusted curing parameters.

How does the sparkle effect compare to glitter laminates?

Sparkling Lamination Film provides a more controlled, uniform distribution of metallic particles compared to traditional glitter laminates. The particles are embedded within the film structure rather than surface-applied, resulting in reduced particle shedding, improved scratch resistance, and consistent optical effects across production runs.

What is the recommended storage condition for this film?

Store rolls in their original packaging in a controlled environment between 15-25°C (59-77°F) with 40-60% relative humidity. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, heat sources, or moisture. For optimal performance, condition rolls at operating temperature for 24 hours before use in production environments.

Can Sparkling Lamination Film be used for food contact applications?

The standard formulation is not specifically certified for direct food contact. For packaging applications involving direct food contact, we offer specialized food-grade compliant versions that meet relevant regulatory standards including FDA 21 CFR and EU 10/2011 requirements for indirect food contact applications.

What is the minimum order quantity for custom formulations?

Standard product offerings are available with minimum order quantities starting from 10 rolls per specification. For custom formulations involving specific particle sizes, colors, or adhesive systems, minimum quantities typically begin at 50 rolls with extended lead times for development and production.
