Laminating film is a material often used in offices, schools, and printing plants. It can be used to protect documents, photos, certificates, etc. But you may not know the correct way to store it. The following article will tell you the correct way to store it.
✅ 1. Do not place it in a humid place

It is recommended to place it in a dry and ventilated environment, and the humidity should be controlled at 40%~60%.
✅ 2. Avoid high temperature and direct sunlight
Do not expose it near the window
Do not place it near the air outlet of the air conditioner or the heating machine
Store at room temperature (15~30℃ is most suitable)
✅ 3. Lay it flat, don't stand it upright
If Laminating film is placed vertically for a long time, it is easy to bend or deform due to gravity.
The best way is:
Put the whole package flat on a shelf or cabinet, and don't put too heavy things on it.
✅ 4. Do not unpack and pile up randomly
Many people like to unpack as soon as they receive the goods. In fact, this will make Laminating film more susceptible to moisture, dust and deformation.
Correct approach:
Unused Laminating film should be sealed and stored
After unpacking, seal it with a sealed bag or repack it
Mark the specifications and thickness for easy use next time
