Etymology

The term 'laminated' originates from the Latin word 'lamina', meaning 'a thin sheet' or 'layer'. Over time, the process of laminating evolved to encompass various methods of combining materials to enhance their properties. In the 19th century, laminating was primarily associated with wood, where layers of veneer were bonded together to create a more stable and aesthetically pleasing material. This technique eventually expanded to include numerous applications across different industries, such as packaging, construction, and printing. Today, 'laminated' describes a wide range of products that benefit from enhanced durability and functionality, showcasing the importance of this process in modern manufacturing and design.
