Premium Double-Coated Graphic Mounting Tape for Professional Laminating & Mounting
When precision, durability, and archival quality matter, Magnum Tapes & Films’ GraphicMount™ double-coated mounting tape stands out as the go-to solution for sign makers, print shops, and graphic-arts professionals who rely on heavy-duty mounting and laminating equipment. Whether you’re mounting wide-format prints, POP displays, trade show signage, or architectural-quality graphics, GraphicMount gives you the dependable, long-lasting bond and clean aesthetics your clients expect.
Why GraphicMount Is an Industry Favorite
- Double-sided adhesion for permanent bonds—GraphicMount mounting tape features adhesives on both sides, enabling you to adhere two surfaces or substrates securely without mechanical fasteners. The result: solid bonding to both smooth and textured substrates, from foam and rigid boards to plastics and composite panels.
- Low-VOC, acid-free, archival standard — All GraphicMount variants comply with stringent standards: JIS-A 1901 for emissions and ISO 18916 for photographic and print archiving. That means prints, photos, and graphics mounted with this tape are protected from acid-induced degradation and discoloration over time—essential for long-term displays, archival signage, gallery work, or museum-quality prints.
- Multiple adhesive options and series — With styles ranging from “Economy” to “Premium,” GraphicMount offers both rubber-based and advanced low-VOC acrylic adhesives. Each comes on a polyester (PET) carrier in either a clear or white carrier and in a variety of widths and roll lengths to match production needs.
- Full compatibility with popular substrates—GraphicMount works with common mounting substrates like foam board, rigid foam core, composite boards, plastics (e.g., LSE plastics), and even heavy-duty surfaces like Sintra® or Gatorboard®. That versatility means your laminating or mounting equipment setup stays flexible across many job types.
Applications—From Signage to Exhibits, POP Displays to Fine Art
GraphicMount is engineered for a broad spectrum of professional graphic mounting and laminating use cases:
- Retail POP displays, seasonal signage, and promotional graphics
- Office signage, menu boards, directional signs, and wayfinding displays
- Trade show exhibit boards, trade-show signage, and event graphics
- Gallery prints, framed photography, and archival mountings
- Foam-core and composite-board mounting for rigid displays
- Installation of vinyl graphics or adhered signage on boards and panels
- Permanent decal attachment for plastic, foam, Sintra, or sheetboard substrates
Because the tape is double-coated and permanent, once mounted, graphics will remain firmly adhered. This product is ideal for situations where longevity, clean presentation, and a professional finish are essential.
Integration With Professional Laminating Equipment
For businesses that use wide-format laminators, cold or hot roll laminating systems, and other finishing equipment, GraphicMount is designed to integrate seamlessly into your workflow. Many professional shops first mount prints to rigid or semi-rigid boards using GraphicMount, then apply overlaminate film to enhance durability, protect against abrasion, UV, moisture, or wear, and give that final polished finish.
Here’s why this two-step (mount + laminate) approach works so well:
- Structural stability—mounting to a rigid backing (foam-core, Gatorboard, etc.) gives graphics body and rigidity, preventing curl, warping, or bending.
- Professional aesthetics & protection—once mounted, you can overlaminate with gloss, matte, or textured film for scratch resistance, UV protection, and moisture resistance and to enhance color depth.
- Efficient production workflow—double-coated tapes like GraphicMount simplify the mounting step: align your print, remove the release liner, press onto the board, then laminate. No messy heat activation, messy glue, or extensive drying times, ideal for high-volume shops.
- Long-term durability—for graphics exposed to wear, handling, or outdoor conditions (e.g., retail signage, exhibition graphics), combining robust mounting tape with a protective overlaminate film significantly extends lifespan and reduces rework.
