Karess® NYLON Laminate

A SOFT-TOUCH FINISH FOR BOOK COVERS

Karess NYLON laminate combines an extremely soft finish with anti-curling properties to ensure book covers lie flat in humid environments even with regular use and bending. Bold and luxuriously soft, this finish is sure to instantly draw in shoppers as they look through the bookshelves of a retail store or book shop. Give romance, fantasy, mystery, and even classic novels an irresistible first impression with the rich, rose-petal feel of Karess. Receptive to gluing, stamping, and other post-laminate processes, this laminate supports a variety of embellishments that make book cover designs stand out even from a distance. 

Karess is part of the Nobelus® Tactile Collection.
