Tailored Solution

1. Waterproof Encapsulation for Ultimate Protection

Unlike standard lamination which is trimmed to the edge, our Encapsulation service seals your menu within a tough plastic film with a clear “lip” border. This makes the menu 100% waterproof and wipe-clean—essential for protecting against spills, grease, and heavy handling.

2. Tailored Finishes to Suit Your Brand

Every restaurant has a unique atmosphere, and your menus should reflect that. We offer a variety of finishes:

Gloss Finish: Makes food photography pop with vibrant colours and high-impact shine.
Satin or Matt Finish: Reduces glare under restaurant lighting for easier reading and a modern, sophisticated feel.
Various Thicknesses: From flexible 35-micron films to rigid 250-micron heavy-duty options.

3. Professional Edge & Corner Finishing

Sharp corners can peel or cause discomfort for guests. We offer Radius Cornering (rounded corners) to give your menus a premium look and increased longevity. We can also provide:

Hole Drilling & Slotting: Perfect for wine lists or specials menus held in ring binders or on clipboards.
Creasing & Folding: For bi-fold or tri-fold menu designs.
Die-Cutting: For custom-shaped menus that stand out from the competition.
