A laminating apparatus includes a lamination object conveying unit for conveying an object, a laminating film conveying unit for conveying the laminating film, and a heating-pressurizing unit for overlapping the object with the laminating film, and heating and pressurizing the object and the laminating film. A heat dissipating unit is disposed downstream from the heating-pressurizing unit in a conveying direction, with the heat dissipating unit dissipating heat from the object and the laminating film overlapped by the heating-pressurizing unit. In addition, a heating-pressurizing releasing unit releases the heating-pressurizing by the heating-pressurizing unit.
