How Lamination can stop the spread of COVID-19

Everyday brings a new challenge, especially when it comes to stopping the spread of COVID-19. We are all aware of best practices such as using sanitizer, wipes, masks and other cleaning solutions; but what about items that cannot be cleaned or wiped down such as paper? Especially in office settings, paper can touch multiple hands and surfaces before the end of its life. The best way to prevent paper from spreading germs and viruses is with lamination.   Lamination refers to covering an item in a protective substrate. You can laminate many things, but for our purposes, we are referring to paper. Not only does lamination add strength and durability, but it also improves image quality. Lamination comes in either rolls or pouches. You can choose from gloss, matte, velvet touch, cold/pressure sensitive, magnet, window decal, dry erase and much more.   Any piece of paper that is covered by any type or thickness of lamination can be wiped down and cleaned. This is especially helpful for high traffic places such as medical offices, schools, restaurants, government and other facilities.   Want to take it one step further? Laminate using BioLam antimicrobial lamination and germs have no where to grow. Biolam is made with silver which reduces the growth of bacteria, mold, mildews and fungi on surfaces. Plus, since the silver is built into the film the antibacterial qualities will never rub or wipe off with repeated use and cleaning. Available as a roll and as a pouch.
