Laminated Folded Leaflets

Choose a Gloss or Matt Lamination to elevate your next folded leaflet

Description

Folded leaflets that survive the real world

An unlaminated leaflet is fine on a desk; put it in a restaurant, a gym or a coat pocket and it soon looks tired. A laminate coating changes that — a thin protective film, in gloss or matt, that shrugs off spills, fingerprints and everyday handling, and gives the leaflet a premium weight and feel in the hand. Ideal for anything that gets used repeatedly rather than read once. A real person checks your artwork before it's printed, and every order helps restore forests through our Print A Tree project.

Which lamination — gloss or matt?

Both protect equally; the difference is look and feel. Gloss laminate is shiny and makes colours and photography pop — great for food menus and vibrant, image-led leaflets. Matt laminate is non-reflective with a soft, understated, tactile finish that reads as more premium and is easier on the eye across text — the choice for professional and high-end branding. If your leaflet is photo-heavy, gloss; if it's text-heavy or upmarket, matt.

Every order plants trees

A laminated leaflet that lasts is one you reprint less often — and through our Print A Tree project with Ecologi, every Printlogik order funds verified reforestation. Free, automatic, every time. See the forest grow →

Artwork made easy

Every order includes a free artwork check by a real person — you don't need to ask. On folded work this is genuinely valuable, because folded artwork is the easiest thing in print to set up wrong.

Supply a CMYK PDF at 300dpi with 3mm bleed, a 3mm safe zone and fonts outlined or embedded. The setup that trips people up: supply the leaflet as a 2-page double-sided PDF with panels imposed in fold order, not reading order. On an A4 folded to A5, page 1 shows leaflet pages 4 and 1, and page 2 shows pages 2 and 3. For landscape creases, the back and inside pages are rotated 180° so everything reads the right way up once folded. Print a folded mock-up to check before sending — or send us your pages and we'll impose the fold for you. It's exactly the kind of error our free artwork check exists to catch.

Frequently asked questions

What does lamination add?
A thin protective film over the printed leaflet that resists spills, moisture, fingerprints and general wear, while giving a heavier, more premium feel. It's what lets a menu or price list survive repeated handling instead of looking scruffy within days.
Gloss or matt laminate?
Both protect the same; it's about finish. Gloss is shiny and makes colours and photos pop — ideal for food menus. Matt is non-reflective, soft to the touch and reads as more premium, and it's easier on the eye for text-heavy leaflets. Photo-led leans gloss; text-led or upmarket leans matt.
How should I set up folded artwork?
As a 2-page double-sided PDF with panels imposed in fold order rather than reading order — for an A4 folded to A5, page 1 carries leaflet pages 4 and 1, page 2 carries pages 2 and 3. Landscape creases need the back and inside pages rotated 180°. If that's fiddly, send us your pages and we'll impose it for you, and check a folded mock-up first.
Is a laminated leaflet worth the extra?
If the leaflet will be handled repeatedly — a menu, a price list, a reference guide — yes: it lasts far longer and looks better for it, so you reprint less often. For a one-off flyer that's read once and recycled, unlaminated is the more economical choice.
Is this good for menus?
It's one of the most popular uses — a laminated folded menu wipes clean, resists spills and survives being handled by every table, all day. If you specifically want a menu, we also produce dedicated menu products; tell us what you need and we'll point you to the best fit.
Do you offer more sizes and fold styles?
Yes — for the full range of sizes, fold styles and paper stocks, see our Flat & Creased Leaflets range, which can also be supplied laminated. Tell us what you're producing and we'll recommend the right combination.
