How to Choose the Right Bookmark Material & Lamination

How to Choose the Right Bookmark Material & Lamination

Choosing the right material and lamination for your bookmarks is important if you want them to look professional, last longer, and give a premium feel. Whether you're printing bookmarks for business branding, school events, giveaways, or personal use, the material you choose affects both durability and appearance.

Here’s a simple guide to help you select the best material and finish for your bookmarks.

1. Card Material Options

300gsm Art Card

This is the most common choice for bookmarks. It’s thick, affordable, and provides a smooth, clean printing surface. Perfect for general use and bulk orders.

350gsm Premium Card

Stronger and more durable than 300gsm, this material offers a firm feel that won’t bend easily. Ideal for professional branding, bookstores, schools, and marketing gifts.

400gsm Luxury Card

A heavy, high-end card that feels more premium. Best for luxury brands, corporate events, and special merchandise.

2. Lamination Options

Matte Lamination

Gives a soft, elegant look with reduced glare. Great for minimalistic or professional bookmark designs.

Gloss Lamination

Bright, shiny finish that makes colours pop. Perfect for colourful illustrations, school bookmarks, and promotional gifts.

Velvet / Soft-Touch Lamination

Premium, silky finish that feels smooth to the touch. Popular for luxury brands and elegant designs.

UV Coating (Optional)

Adds extra shine and protects the surface from scratches. Works well for full-colour artwork and vibrant designs.

3. Which Combination Should You Choose?

The right choice depends on where and how the bookmark will be used:

  • Business branding: 350gsm or 400gsm + matte or velvet lamination
  • School giveaways: 300gsm + gloss lamination
  • Bookstores: 350gsm + matte lamination
  • Events & marketing campaigns: 300gsm + gloss lamination
  • Luxury brand promotions: 400gsm + velvet lamination

4. Good Durability Matters

A bookmark is handled often, so choosing strong card stock and lamination helps it last longer. A durable bookmark is more likely to stay with your customers—giving your brand long-term visibility.
