Single Sided Laminating Film |
Single Sided Laminating Film
Single sided laminating is one of the most popular and difficult laminating jobs and requires a quality laminating film, a suitable laminator, and a little knowledge.
To ensure you are ordering the correct film for your laminator and substrate, please read the description for each film below. If you have questions, we will be happy to discuss your application. Call us at 1-800-869-2827 or e-mail us at sales@laminatorwarehouse.com.
Not sure if your laminator is fit for laminating on one side? Visit our Laminating on One Side support page for some pointers. We recommend the Foliant Series Single Side Laminators for ease of use and a superior finished product.

Types of Single Sided Laminating Film
Generally there are two types of film that are most often used for single-sided laminating, Nylon and OPP (Oriented PolyPropylene). Common applications for single sided laminating include book jackets, paperback book covers, report covers, maps, posters, and anything that does not require encapsulation (laminating on both sides).

Nylon films, often called “low curl” or “lay flat” films, are very stable and resist shrinking or expanding when they are heated and cooled. This is ideal for single sided laminating as it prevents curling of the finished product. Nylon laminating films absorb moisture at a rate similar to most papers, which prevents curling from moisture. Nylon is also more scratch and tear resistant than OPP or Polyester films.
Nylon film is available in widths from 12-1/2" to 39-1/2”"in 1/2" increments. Standard roll length for 1.2 mil is 12,000’ (roll diameter is approx. 14"), 1.3 mil is 10,000’ (roll diameter is approximately 14") and 1.7 mil is 3000’ (approx, roll diameter is 9.5"). Please ensure your laminator can accommodate a roll of this diameter. Check out our handy Roll Diameter Chart. If you require a special length or width not listed, please call us at 1-800-869-2827 or e-mail us at sales@laminatorwarehouse.com. No returns allowed on single sided laminating films. Please allow up to two weeks for delivery.
Tip: If you are having difficulty getting your film to stick to your digital prints, try the Nylon Xtreme Bond EXB film.

OPP films provide excellent clarity and shine to your prints. Polypropylene films are much less expensive than Nylon or Polyester-based films, though they are not as stable or scuff resistant. We recommend that you only laminate OPP films with a heated roller laminator to prevent stretching of the film.
OPP film is available in widths from 16" to 39-1/2" in 1/2" increments. Standard roll length for 1.2 mil and 1.3 mil is 10,000’ (roll diameter is approx. 14") Please ensure your laminator can accommodate a roll of this diameter. Check out our handy Roll Diameter Chart. If you require a special length or width not listed, please call us at 1-800-869-2827 or e-mail us at sales@laminatorwarehouse.com. No returns allowed on single sided laminating films. Please allow up to two weeks for delivery.
