Protect posters, menus, maps, charts, signs, and reference sheets with a clean sealed finish.
Star MailHub and More laminates oversized prints for businesses, schools, restaurants, events, offices, training rooms, job sites, and anyone who needs a large piece to hold up to repeated handling.
Width is the key limit. Our laminator accepts material up to 25 inches wide, but a practical finished document should usually be no wider than about 24 inches so the film has room to seal around the edges.
Large printed pieces that need protection, easier cleaning, or longer useful life.

The printed piece needs room around the edges for the laminate to close properly.
Maximum Machine Width
The laminator accepts material up to 25 inches wide.
Practical Document Width
About 24 inches wide is a more realistic maximum when a sealed edge is required.
Length
Length is generally flexible. Width is the main production limit.
Edge Allowance
We review the border needed around the print before running the piece.
Start with a finished piece or send the file and have us handle both steps.
- Bring a clean, flat printed piece
- Send a print-ready PDF
- Choose the final printed size
- Tell us how the piece will be used
- Specify the border you want left around the edge
- Request one piece or a matching batch
Originals require judgment.
Lamination is permanent and involves heat, pressure, and adhesive film. For one-of-a-kind artwork, photographs, certificates, fragile originals, or anything irreplaceable, we review the risk before proceeding.
In many cases, the safer choice is to laminate a high-quality copy rather than the original.
The right setup depends on whether the piece will be displayed, wiped down, mounted, or handled repeatedly.
Everyday Protection
For prints that need better resistance to fingerprints, light spills, humidity, and repeated use.
Wall or Counter Display
For posters, signs, menus, and reference materials that need a cleaner finished appearance and more rigidity.
High-Touch Use
For pieces that need to be wiped, handled, moved, or reused regularly without wearing out quickly.
Send the file or bring the print, then confirm the size, use, and edge requirements.
Send the file
Upload the PDF or bring the finished print to the store.
Confirm the finished size
Tell us the document width, length, quantity, and whether trimming is needed.
Explain the use
Display, menu, training aid, job-site reference, wipeable surface, or repeated handling.
We review the piece
We check width, edge allowance, material, condition, finish, and production risk.
Laminate and pick up
We complete the project and notify you when the finished pieces are ready.
Wide laminating is quick to run, but setup, film use, and workload still matter.
Standard Turnaround
Many single-piece and small-batch jobs can be completed by the next business day after review.
Minimums
Wide laminating may carry a minimum charge because each run requires material, setup, warm-up, and trimming.
Flexible Timing
If the project is not urgent, batching with other work may be an option. Larger quantities and mixed sizes are quoted with a realistic turnaround.
Common questions before bringing in a piece.
How wide can you laminate?
The machine accepts material up to 25 inches wide. A document up to about 24 inches wide is the safer practical limit when edge sealing is required.
Can the piece be longer than 25 inches?
Yes. Length is generally flexible. Width is the main limitation.
Does lamination protect both sides?
Yes. The film encloses both surfaces and seals around the edges when enough border is available.
Can you print the item first?
Yes. Send a print-ready file and specify the finished size, paper, quantity, and intended use.
Can you laminate artwork or photographs?
Sometimes. We review the material and whether the piece is replaceable. A copy is often safer than laminating the original.
Can the laminated piece be trimmed?
Yes, but trimming too close can break the seal. Tell us the final edge preference before production.
