*ezLaminator & Creative Station Cartridges are cross-compatible. 510 Creative Station can’t accept 9” cartridges.

 

Two-sided Laminate: These cartridges will encapsulate your documents and make them look like they were processed with a traditional pouch or roll laminator. Most cartridges provide glossy laminate although you can find matte film if you look hard enough.

Repositionable Adhesive: This adhesive is helpful if you’re going to be making stickers, labels, and/or signs. The adhesive is applied to one side of your document and you’ll be able to stick it anywhere and then move it later on. Keep in mind that there might be some residue left behind when you move your sticker or sign.

Permanent Adhesive: These cartridges are pretty similar to repositionable adhesive cartridges except the adhesive is permanent. You should use one of these cartridges when you don’t think you’ll need to move your stickers or signs after they’ve been applied to a surface.

High-tack Adhesive: If you’re going to use your stickers, signs, or labels a lot, high-tack adhesive might be right for your needs. This adhesive is extremely strong and is perfect for those items that require a high-quality adhesive.

Laminate/Adhesive: These are some of the most versatile cartridges available. Your document will be laminated on one side and have adhesive on the other side.

Magnet Cartridges: If you have a Xyron Creative Station laminator, you can use magnet cartridges to create your own magnets. One of these cartridges will apply a magnet to the back of your document and laminate the front.

 

Now you are ready to choose the cartridges you need for your next project. If you are interested in buying a Xyron machine now that you know all they can accomplish you can shop them here.
