Why Use Magnetic Print?

Specialist Magnetic Printing with Magnecote

If you’re looking for an innovative and practical way to promote products, services or information, MagneCote magnetic printing offers a flexible and durable alternative to traditional print.

Kingfisher Press is an established UK MagneCote printer, based in Suffolk, providing high-quality litho and digital magnetic printing for businesses, designers and agencies across the UK.

MagneCote is a lightweight, pre-magnetised material that prints like paper but adheres securely to ferrous surfaces such as fridges, filing cabinets, metal panels and vehicles — without adhesives or permanent fixing.

What Makes MagneCote Different?

MagneCote can be printed directly on standard presses, removing the need for post-printing magnetisation and allowing for a more efficient production process. It is highly versatile and can be die-cut, perforated, embossed or laminated, making it suitable for both creative and functional applications.

At Kingfisher Press, MagneCote runs successfully on our Heidelberg B2 litho presses, delivering excellent colour reproduction, strong ink adhesion and a consistent, professional finish. The material also benefits from a long shelf life, making it ideal for projects intended to remain in use over time.

Where MagneCote Works Best

MagneCote is particularly effective where information needs to stay visible, be reused or easily repositioned. Typical applications include appliance labels, filing cabinet reminders, calendars and rosters, retail coupons, games, instructions, recipe cards and labels for tool or metal cabinets.

It is also widely used on vending machines, play equipment and vehicle livery, where temporary or changeable messaging is required without permanent graphics.
