  Laminator help!

  Posted by Paul Hodges on 27 November 2025 at 16:13

  Hello All,

  Bit of a long shot but wondering if anyone can recommend someone or a company – that knows about laminators, how to maintain them and buy spares etc?

  We’ve got a GMP Q1400 Excelam cold laminator which has worked nicely for many years, but it has developed some issues right now and does need spare part brakes.

  When GMP UK were operating, it was easy because they had expertise and sold the brakes, but they’ve since gone, and I can’t seem to find anyone who actually knows about these laminators.

  Thanks in advance!

  I actually had the exact same machine and had similar issues in the end. i would suggest biting the bullet and upgrading to a newer model. I moved onto easymount, one of the best decisions i ever made.
