Clear Overlay Lamination

During a standard colored or two-sided printing process, a roll of Clear Overlay lamination can be added to the printed card. The Clear Overlay laminator roll is, in fact, a layer of film available in different thicknesses that prevents erosion and damage to the card. This is a good measure for cards that are exposed to different devices every day. To create visual security on the card, Clear Overlay laminations are offered in different types, such as without design, general design, and special design. Card forgery can be prevented by using Clear Overlay lamination with a hologram design.

For this purpose, transparent holograms (hot stamps) are placed in roll formats within specific card machines. The press ure and heat created by these machines transfer the transparent holographic layer of these rolls onto the card and adhere to it.

It is also possible to create holographic effects with the same security features on a layer of transparent film. In addition to enhancing the security aspect, it also adds to the beauty of the final product. One of the most important applications of this type of hologram is its use in security cards, such as identification cards, gift cards, and bank cards. This not only adds a security feature to the card but also all the information underneath remains readable and visible too. In case of any attempt to manipulate the information, the hologram layer will be destroyed.

Transparent holograms are also used in packaging and commercial applications, providing both product authenticity and aesthetic appeal. This type of hologram can be used in the form of a strip (easy open) in packaging or as shrink sleeve film to seal bottles. Transparent holograms are used in cases where the information beneath them must be legible.
