What is Spot Gloss Matte Lamination?
Spot Gloss Matte Lamination, often referred to as Spot UV on Matte Lamination or Half-Gloss Half-Matte Lamination, is a finishing technique where both gloss (shiny) and matte (dull) finishes are combined on the same printed surface to create a contrast in texture and appearance.
1️⃣ How Does It Work?
✅ The entire printed surface is first laminated with a matte film, giving it a smooth, low-sheen, premium feel.
✅ Then, specific areas such as logos, images, or text are coated with a gloss finish (spot UV or gloss film) to make them shiny and reflective.
This contrast between matte and gloss areas makes certain elements stand out visually and creates a tactile difference that enhances user experience.
2️⃣ Why Use Spot Gloss Matte Lamination?
✅ Highlight Key Areas
The gloss areas attract light and attention, making logos, brand names, or important graphics more noticeable.
✅ Enhance Visual Depth
Combining matte and gloss finishes adds layers of visual interest, making the packaging or printed material look sophisticated.
✅ Improve Tactile Experience
Glossy areas feel smooth while matte areas feel soft and silky, providing a premium hand feel.
✅ Premium Branding
This finishing is commonly used for luxury packaging, cosmetic boxes, brochures, and business cards to elevate brand perception.
3️⃣ Applications
Spot gloss matte lamination is widely used for:
✅ Cosmetic and skincare packaging
✅ Luxury gift boxes
✅ Brochures and catalogs
✅ Premium business cards
✅ High-end book covers
4️⃣ Advantages of Spot Gloss Matte Lamination
✅ Creates eye-catching contrast between shiny and matte areas
✅ Protects the surface from scratches and fingerprints
