FAQ

What Is Magnetic Paper?
Magnetic paper is a type of material that combines a printable surface with a magnetic backing. It is designed to be used in standard inkjet or laser printers. Magnetic paper allows you to create custom designs that can then be used as magnets. Some magnetic papers are coated to be compatible with inkjet printers, allowing for high-quality colour prints. Other types are designed for use with laser printers, which use toner instead of ink. The backing on magnetic paper is made of a flexible magnetic material that can adhere to metal surfaces like refrigerators, filing cabinets or whiteboards. The thickness of the magnetic backing can vary, with thinner sheets being more flexible and thicker sheets providing stronger magnetic hold. Magnetic paper is very versatile, and you can use it for all sorts of applications and projects. You can print photos, graphics, text or any other designs onto the magnetic paper, making it highly customisable. Magnetic paper is also very easy to use and can be cut with scissors or a craft knife to create custom shapes and sizes. This magnetic product is a simple and effective way to create custom magnets for personal, educational or professional purposes. You can advertise or decorate your promotion or party with your own unique images or artwork and then remove, replace, update or relocate your magnetic designs whenever you want.
What Types of Magnetic Paper Are Available?
Magnetic paper comes in various types to suit different applications and printer types. Magnetic sheeting can be used with standard inkjet printers, with these sheets having a special coating to ensure good ink adhesion and colour quality. Magnetic sheeting can also be used for glossy inkjet printing. This type of magnetic paper features a glossy finish for vibrant, photo-quality prints and is ideal for making custom photo magnets. Some magnetic paper also has a matte finish option, which gives it a non-reflective surface, suitable for text-heavy prints or illustrations. Magnetic paper is also suitable for use with laser printers, using toner instead of ink. These sheets are heat-resistant to withstand the laser printing process. Magnetic paper can also be pre-cut, making it the perfect choice for business cards. Those dimensions can be easily adapted to create magnetic business cards which are great for promoting your business or service. Magnetic paper is available in pre-cut shapes like circles, squares or rectangles, making it useful for various craft and DIY projects. It can be pre-cut into label sizes, often with adhesive on the printable side for dual-use as labels and magnets. There is also a heavy-duty option in magnetic paper, which is designed for applications requiring a stronger magnetic hold, such as vehicle signs or heavy items. Magnetic paper is durable and weather-resistant which makes it ideal for outdoor use. Magnetic paper available in rolls for large-scale projects or custom cutting, providing flexibility in length and shape. It can also be adapted as a speciality magnet paper, such as dry erase magnetic sheets. This type of magnetic paper features a dry-erase surface on the printable side, which allows you to re-use it for writing or drawing. You can also choose adhesive-backed magnetic sheets, which have an adhesive layer on the printable side for sticking to non-metal surfaces Each type of magnetic paper caters to specific needs, from creating simple fridge magnets to producing professional signage and educational tools.
What Are the Typical Uses of Magnetic Paper?
Magnetic paper, also known as magnetic sheets or magnet paper, has a variety of practical applications because it is so versatile and easy to use. It is one of the most popular products used in promotional materials. Companies create magnetic business cards to ensure that their contact information stays visible on clients' refrigerators or other metal surfaces. Magnetic signs for vehicles allow businesses to easily advertise on their fleet without permanent modifications. In crafts and hobbies, magnetic sheeting is an essential product. Magnetic sheets can be used to add interactive elements to scrapbooks, hobbyists use magnetic paper to create custom magnets for various creative projects and teachers love magnetic paper because of its versatility in the classroom. Magnetic letters, numbers and shapes help in teaching children in a fun and interactive way and educators use magnetic sheets to create movable displays and charts. In the home, magnetic sheets can be used in all sorts of ways to improve your organisation. Magnetic labels for metal shelves, cabinets and storage bins help in organising spaces efficiently. Magnetic calendars and planners can be stuck on refrigerators or whiteboards for easy access and updating. In retail and merchandising, magnetic labels are used on store shelves for easy price and product information updates and custom magnetic signs are perfect for point-of-sale advertising for promotions and sales events. Magnetic paper and sheeting have revolutionised the signage industry. Magnetic signs are used for temporary or changeable signage on vehicles or in storefronts, and at trade shows, conferences and events. In industry and the professional world, magnetic paper delivers organisation. Magnetic planning boards are an essential tool for project management and scheduling in offices and workshops.
How Strong Is Magnetic Paper?
The strength of magnetic paper varies depending on its thickness, the type of magnetic material used, and the specific application. The standard thickness of magnetic paper is around 0.3 to 0.5 millimetres thick, which is sufficient for lightweight applications like fridge magnets, business cards and small crafts. Thicker magnetic paper, up to 1 millimetre or more, provides a stronger magnetic hold, suitable for more demanding applications such as vehicle signs or industrial uses. Most magnetic paper uses a ferrite-based magnetic material, which provides a decent magnetic pull for everyday use. Powerful neodymium-based magnetic paper is rarely used due to cost, but it offers a significantly stronger magnetic pull. Some specialised magnetic sheets might incorporate neodymium for high-strength applications. There are a few factors you should consider when buying magnetic paper, including where it will be used, whether indoors or outdoors, and what it is being used for, which will determine the strength of the hold required.
Can Magnetic Paper Be Cut to Size?
Yes, magnetic paper can be cut to size, making it highly versatile for a wide range of applications. Magnetic paper can be cut with standard scissors if you are using a lightweight paper for crafts or small projects. For heavier duty, you'll need heavy duty scissors for the job. Utility or specialist craft knives are useful for precision cutting, especially for detailed shapes or designs. Magnetic paper can be cut using a guillotine paper cutter which provides a straight, clean cut, ideal for larger sheets or when multiple pieces of the same size are needed. A rotary cutter offers precise cuts and is useful for cutting multiple sheets at once. Use a pencil or marker to outline the shape or size you need before cutting. This ensures accuracy and helps in achieving the desired shape. Cut slowly and steadily to avoid jagged edges or uneven cuts. For thicker magnetic sheets, it may be helpful to make multiple passes with a craft knife rather than trying to cut through in one go. Be cautious when using sharp tools like craft knives or scissors. Use a cutting mat and keep fingers clear of the cutting path. By using the appropriate tools and techniques, you can easily cut magnetic paper to the desired size and shape, making it a versatile material for a wide range of uses.

The Pull Force listed for each magnet is based on lifting 10mm thick steel from a horizontal surface. Magnets on a vertical surface (of 10mm thick steel) are generally able to hold around only 30% of the pull force listed in the product description. This is due to the effects of gravity and the lack of friction between the surface and the shiny magnet. Read More
