Important Laminating Advice

If you intend to laminate small, multiple items inside a larger pouch, such as flash cards, or odd-shaped items such as stars, speech bubbles or cut-outs, you must use a Lifejacket pouch carrier. A Lifejacket is also required for uneven items such as children’s artwork, collages or mixed-material projects.

Using the correct pouch carrier for these applications helps reduce the risk of pouch jams, poor results or machine damage. Failure to use a suitable carrier for these types of items may invalidate the warranty if technical support is required as a result.
