Care Instructions

To maintain the quality and longevity of your leaflets:

  • Store in a cool, dry place to prevent fading or warping.
  • Keep away from moisture to avoid smudging or damage.
  • Stack flat to prevent creases or bent corners.
  • Distribute carefully to avoid bending or crumpling edges.
  • Recycle responsibly to minimise waste when no longer needed.

Additional Information

Materials Information

Uncoated: Uncoated paper with a naturally textured, porous surface. Provides strong ink absorption, fast drying times, and is ideal for writing or stamping applications.

Gloss: High-gloss coated stock with a reflective surface. Enhances colour vibrancy and sharpness, suitable for image-heavy applications requiring maximum visual impact.

Silk: Silk-coated paper with a smooth, low-sheen finish. Offers excellent image reproduction with high colour density and clarity. Surface is writable with a ballpoint pen.

Lamination:
No Lamination: Supplied without any laminate coating; stock remains unsealed.
Matt: 27Mic BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene) Matt Thermal Lamination Film.
Gloss: 25Mic BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene) Gloss Thermal Lamination Film.

Finishing Method

Velvet: 32Mic BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene) Soft Touch Thermal Lamination Film.

Embellishment:
None: No embellishment applied; standard laminated or unlaminated finish.
Spot UV: UV-cured varnish applied to selected areas of the artwork.
Foil: Hot stamped 12 Micron Polyester metallic foil.

Note: Embellishment can only be added to laminated print. Lamination can be added to stock thicker than 250gsm and cannot be added to uncoated stocks.

Perforation:
Single Fold: A single perforation line applied at the centre of the sheet. Micro-holes are punched to allow clean and easy folding or tearing.
C-Fold and Z-Fold 1/3: A single perforation line applied at one-third of the sheet width (rightmost panel). Micro-holes enable precise folding or tear-off functionality.

Printing Process Drop-on-demand digital inkjet printing or offset lithographic printing for high-definition image quality with smooth shadows, gradients, and sharp text.
