GBC Foton CartFilm Refill 75 Micron – 56.4m Laminating Film Roll
The GBC Foton CartFilm Refill 75 Micron is a genuine GBC laminating film refill made for the GBC Foton 30 Automated Laminator's reloadable cartridge system, letting you reload film without buying a new cartridge or loading a pouch.
Compatibility
This roll is designed to fit the reusable film carrier inside the GBC Foton 30 Automated Laminator. It is not a laminating pouch — it's a refill for the existing cartridge carrier your Foton 30 already uses, so you keep the same carrier and simply reload the film. If you're unsure whether your GBC laminator uses this cartridge system, check your machine's model plate before ordering.
Specifications

- Film length: 56.4m per roll

How to reload it
Open the locking arms on your Foton 30 cartridge carrier, place the film and transfer piece into the carrier, then close the locking arms. No pouch loading, no re-threading through separate rollers.
Why this is the right pick
This is the manufacturer's own refill film for the Foton 30's cartridge system, not a generic substitute, so fit and feed through the machine matches what the laminator was designed for. The reduced-plastic carrier design also means less waste each time you reload compared with a full standard cartridge swap.
FAQ
Is this cartfilm refill compatible with the GBC Foton 30 laminator?
Yes, this 75 micron, 56.4m film roll is made to reload the cartridge carrier used in the GBC Foton 30 Automated Laminator. It's designed to replace the film inside your existing carrier rather than requiring a new cartridge.
What's the difference between this refill roll and a laminating pouch?
This is a continuous film roll that reloads into a reusable cartridge carrier, not a single-use pouch you feed through the machine by hand. Once loaded, the Foton 30 pulls film directly from the carrier for each laminating pass.
Is this a genuine GBC product or a compatible/generic alternative?
It's a genuine GBC OEM refill film, supplied and branded by GBC rather than a third-party compatible substitute. The SKU (4410026) and vendor listing both confirm it as GBC's own product.
How do I reload the film into the Foton 30 cartridge carrier?
Open the locking arms on the carrier, place the film and transfer piece inside, then close the locking arms again. The self-threading design means you don't need to manually feed the film through separate rollers.
How long is the laminating film roll, and how far will 56.4m go?
Each roll contains 56.4m of 75 micron film. The exact number of documents this covers depends on the size and length of what you're laminating, since longer or wider items use more film per pass.
Does using this refill reduce plastic waste compared to a standard cartridge?
Yes, the refill carrier is made from 85% recycled material and cuts disposable plastic use by 77% compared with a standard Foton cartridge. You reload the same carrier instead of discarding a full cartridge each time.
Can I buy just the refill film, or do I need a new cartridge carrier too?
This listing is the refill film only, for reloading the cartridge carrier you already have with your Foton 30. You don't need to replace the carrier itself to use this refill.
Does the 75 micron thickness matter compared to other options?
75 micron is a mid-weight laminating film suited to everyday documents like signage, menus, and general office pages. Thicker film (such as 100 or 125 micron) produces a more rigid, durable finish, while thinner film stays more flexible — so the right micron depends on how much stiffness you want in the finished laminate.
