Magnetic & Ferrous Vinyl
Magnetic and ferrous vinyl sheets offer some of the most flexible solutions available for print applications, especially when frequent graphic changes are needed. These materials work together seamlessly: magnetic vinyl creates a magnetically receptive surface, while ferrous vinyl provides the attraction necessary to secure magnets in place. This combination is ideal for environments where signs, displays, or promotional graphics need to be updated regularly.

What Are Magnetic & Ferrous Vinyls?
Magnetic and ferrous vinyls are highly versatile materials used in a variety of print applications:
- Magnetic Vinyl – contains magnetised particles, enabling it to adhere to metal surfaces without the need for adhesive.
- Ferrous vinyl – is not magnetised itself but will attract to magnets with ease
When both of these are used together, they create a highly adaptable display system for promotional messaging and decoration.
Magnetic Vinyl
Our magnetic sheets are made from flexible vinyl with embedded magnetised particles, providing durability and customisability. These sheets can be die-cut or trimmed to any shape, offering complete flexibility in design.
Our range is specially coated to provide excellent print results using solvent, UV, and latex inks, making it ideal for use in signage, stickers, and vehicle graphics. Magnetic vinyl is also popular for wall graphics, offering a quick and easy solution for interchangeable advertising.
Ferrous Vinyl
Ferrous vinyl (also known as a magnetically receptive surface) allows magnets to easily attach to it. While not magnetic itself, it creates a surface that magnetically adheres, providing a flexible, removable signage solution. Ferrous vinyl offers excellent colour reproduction and tends to be more durable than other vinyl types, making it ideal for signage that needs to withstand frequent updates or repositioning.
Applications of Magnetic & Ferrous Vinyl
The combination of magnetic vinyl and ferrous vinyl offers complete versatility for a range of applications, including:
- Signage: Ideal for temporary or movable displays, both for indoor and outdoor use.
- Stickers & Graphics: Perfect for creating custom stickers and decals that can be easily repositioned.
- Vehicle Graphics: Use magnetic sheets for temporary vehicle signage that can be applied or removed as needed.
- Promotional Messaging: For campaigns that require quick, effective, and easily updated signage.
- Wall Graphics: Magnetic vinyl for walls offers an efficient, durable, and reusable advertising solution.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is magnetic and ferrous vinyl?
Magnetic vinyl uses a magnetic backing to be attached to a surface without adhesive. Ferrous vinyl usually features a ferrous coating on the back of the print surface, providing a surface for magnets to stick to or vice versa.
What are magnetic and ferrous materials made from?
They are usually made from PVC (polyvinyl chloride) with magnetic or metallic particles embedded into a liner. The particles give them magnetic or ferrous properties that allow them to stick to most metals. PVC-Free versions are also available now including PP or PET ferrous materials.
What types of magnetic and ferrous vinyl are available?
It comes in a variety of roll widths, lengths and thicknesses depending on the strength of the magnet required. 0.3mm, 0.6mm, and 0.85mm are the standard thicknesses for most magnetic materials. While 190mic or 260mic is the best thickness for ferrous materials.
What are the applications of magnetic and ferrous sheets?
Printable magnetic sheets are often used for sign-making, wall graphics, and temporary car graphics. They are ideal for any application that requires movable or temporary installation. Ferrous vinyl is ideal for whiteboards and instant surfaces that attract magnets.
How do you install magnetic and ferrous vinyl?
Clean the substrate. Line it up and apply it to the surface, using moderate pressure to get it flat. Due to the thickness of the material a squeegee is not likely to be required, but can be used if necessary. For thicker magnets, ensure the magnet is properly aligned before offering it up to the receptive surface as it will be difficult to slide around once applied.
