Self-wound laminates are also ideal for compact digital label finishers, these units are used in conjunction with desk top pigment-based ink and laser technology printers. Self-wound laminate by nature is a compact material, easy to transport, store and available in a roll size that is ideal for the smaller diameter output rolls used on compact label finishing machines.
