Global Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Global Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Flexographic plate mounting tapes are used in flexographic printing on plastic, cellophane, film, and other non-porous substrates. Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes help press operators work faster and more efficiently, producing high-quality print output in less time.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes market finds that the global Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes market reached a value of USD 507.85 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 586.43 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 2.43% during the forecast period.

The thickness tolerance of Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes is getting smaller and smaller.

Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes play an important role in flexographic printing. Its main function is to stick the flexographic plate on the plate cylinder, fix the position of the flexographic plate, and ensure the It does not shift or fall off during the printing process. Downstream customers consider many factors when choosing Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes. For example, the thickness tolerance of Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes is a factor. In general, the tighter the tape thickness tolerance, the better. Because if the thickness tolerance is large, either the printing plate system is too thick or the printing plate system is too thin. If the plate system is too thick, it will result in increased printing pressure and increased printing dots. If the printing plate system is too thin, it will cause the printing pressure to be too small and the imprint to be false. Therefore, as the industry continues to evolve, the thickness tolerances of Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes will become smaller and smaller.

Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes tack increases with number of prints

The primary function of Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes is to hold the plate firmly on the plate roll or sleeve. Generally speaking, product manufacturers usually use the peel strength of Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes on the surface of the printing plate or sleeve as a universal indicator of tape adhesion. The higher the peel strength of the tape, the stronger its tack and the stronger the bond. However, Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes do not have the same stickiness as the plate surface during plate placement, repositioning, printing, and demounting. The ideal glue is to keep the viscosity consistent throughout the process, but the actual application is due to the use of pressure-sensitive glue. Therefore, the tack of some Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes increases with the number of prints. Then when a large-scale order is completed, the tape is difficult to remove from the ED plate, and it is easy to tear the flexo plate during removal. Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes stickiness that increases with the number of prints is one of the challenges facing companies in the industry.

Company Overview:

3M Company is one of the major players operating in the Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes market, holding a share of 18.63% in 2022.

3M Company

3M Company is a multinational integrated manufacturing company originated in the United States, established in 1902. The company is a constituent of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and manufactures more than 55,000 products, including abrasives, tapes, adhesives, electronics, display products, medical products, and household products.

Tesa SE

Tesa SE is one of the largest tape manufacturers in the world and is one of the three divisions of Beiersdorf AG in Germany. In April 2001, tesa Tape was formally established as an independent subsidiary of Beiersdorf AG. The current main competitor is 3M. The company focuses on tape, wire harness, optical transparent tape, barrier tape, light control tape, surface protection, foam tape and other fields.

Segmentation Overview:


By type, Low Density segment accounted for the largest share of market in 2021.

Different foam densities enable different types of high-quality printing. Low Density products maximize high-speed processing and screen-printed dot reproduction. A product of Medium Density, is recommended for combined printing. In this printing, printing ink and solid ink coverage are reproduced as one image. High Density's products can be used for dense tone reproduction in areas of solid color images that require absorbent substrates or maximum block ink coverage.

Application Overview:

The market's largest segment by application is the segment Flexible Packaging Printing, with a market share of 70.05% in 2022.

Flexible Packaging Printing

Mainly apply the product to the field of Flexible Packaging Printing. Flexible packaging refers to packaging that can change the shape of the container after filling or removing the contents.

Label Printing

Mainly apply the product to the field of Label Printing. A label is a piece of paper, plastic film, cloth, metal, or other material affixed to a package or product on which information about the product or item is written.
