Premium Laminating Pouches for Durable Documents

GBC HeatSeal LongLife pouches protect important papers with a UV additive that preserves colour integrity and prevents yellowing up to 10 times longer than standard pouches. The ultra-clear structure delivers brilliant colour and bubble-free lamination for a professional finish. Each box contains 100 pouches sized at 11 1/2 x 17 1/2 inches with a 5 mil thickness. They suit menus, signs, photos and documents needing extended display life.

Practical Limits of 5 Mil Pouch Lamination

A 5 mil pouch requires a laminator capable of processing medium-thickness film and accepting the 11 1/2 x 17 1/2 inch format. The medium construction is designed for moderate handling rather than heavy daily wear or outdoor exposure. UV resistance slows fading but does not eliminate it indefinitely under intense direct sunlight. Users without a compatible wide-format laminator cannot use these pouches.

Build Quality and Day-to-Day Handling

The LongLife formulation resists yellowing and maintains clarity through repeated viewing and handling. Pouches feed smoothly in compatible GBC HeatSeal and equivalent roll laminators when temperature settings match the 5 mil specification. The generous dimensions allow full coverage of standard menu and sign sheets without trimming. Storage flat and away from heat preserves adhesive performance until use.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 5 mil thickness or a thinner pouch for menus?

How much longer do the LongLife pouches protect against fading compared to standard pouches?

The UV additive in these pouches preserves colour integrity and prevents yellowing up to 10 times longer than standard pouches.

What size documents fit inside the 11 1/2 x 17 1/2 inch pouches?

The pouches accept documents up to 11 1/2 by 17 1/2 inches, so they cover ledger-size pages and large menus with a sealed border all round.
