Soft Touch Lamination Choices: Soft Touch BOPP vs Soft Touch Polyester vs BOPP Matte
When planning a matte or soft touch lamination, it is helpful to choose the right film for your structure and budget:
• Soft Touch BOPP Film – Soft touch matte laminating BOPP film with a velvet feel and good cost-performance balance. Ideal for luxury cartons, premium book covers and soft touch labels in flexible packaging and publishing.
• Soft Touch Polyester Film – Soft touch PET film with higher stiffness, heat resistance and dimensional stability. Suitable for cards, electronics panels, automotive interiors and applications that need a more rigid, temperature-resistant substrate.
• BOPP Matte Film – Standard matte BOPP film without the velvet hand-feel but with excellent printability and the most cost-effective matte look for food, snack and personal-care packaging.

• Lamination method – Wet lamination or thermal lamination; laminator type and line speed if available.
• Printing & finishing – Printing process (offset, gravure, flexo, digital) and any post-finishing such as hot foil, embossing or spot UV.

Not Sure About All The Details?
If you are not familiar with all of the technical parameters in this checklist, don’t worry—you can still send us an enquiry. Just tell us:
• What product you are packing or what printed item you want to laminate (for example cosmetic box, perfume carton, coffee bag, book cover, label, etc.).
• What kind of effect you would like to achieve (soft touch matte, anti-scratch for dark colours, premium gift box feel, and so on).
• Any existing film or sample you are using now, or a photo of similar packaging you like.
Our technical and sales teams will ask a few simple follow-up questions and then recommend a suitable Soft Touch BOPP Film structure, thickness and roll specification for you. Even if you only know the application and approximate size, we can still help you move the project forward.
