Adhesive Tapes in the Printing Industry: Precision, Clean Results, and Productivity

In the printing and graphics industry, precision and cleanliness are critical to achieving professional results. Whether it’s flexographic printing, screen printing, or mounting photopolymer plates, tapes are used across production lines to secure, align, and protect materials — all while ensuring minimal downtime.

Eva Solutions supplies high-performance adhesive tapes specifically suited for the printing and graphics sector, helping printers work faster, cleaner, and more reliably.


Key Tape Applications in Printing and Graphics

Tapes in this industry are engineered for stability under pressure, resistance to solvents and inks, and clean removability — essential in environments where tolerances are tight and time is valuable.

Plate Mounting Tapes

Used extensively in flexographic printing, double-sided plate mounting tapes are crucial for attaching printing plates to sleeves or cylinders. These tapes offer:

  • High dimensional stability for consistent print quality

  • Excellent cushioning and compressibility to handle varying pressure levels

  • Clean removal without plate damage or adhesive residue

Available in different foam densities to support various print jobs — from fine detail to solid fills.

Splicing Tapes

In high-speed roll-to-roll printing, splicing tapes ensure efficient reel changes with minimal waste and stoppage.

  • High-tack adhesives ensure quick bonding, even on coated or glossy substrates

  • Heat- and solvent-resistant for stability under press conditions

  • Suitable for both manual and automatic splicing systems

Masking and Edge Protection

Masking tapes are used to protect non-printing areas or guide inks during the production process.

  • Ideal for screen printing, pad printing, and UV printing

  • Residue-free removal helps maintain equipment cleanliness

  • Can also be used to secure plates or covers temporarily during setup

Mounting and Positioning

Tapes help mount signage, displays, or printed visuals during post-production or installation.

  • Acrylic foam tapes offer strong, long-term adhesion on various surfaces

  • Suitable for indoor and outdoor display mounting, including acrylic, glass, metal, and PVC

  • Used in POS displayssignboards, and vehicle wraps
