Plascote 80 Micron Gloss
Plascote 80 is our signature range of self-adhesive book covering, made to our specifications for reliable, professional-quality results.
Trusted by schools and libraries for over 20 years
Plascote 80 is a clear, 80-micron polypropylene film designed to protect, reinforce and extend the life of books. It provides a durable, easy-clean surface while allowing the original cover artwork to remain clearly visible.
It is widely used in Australian schools and libraries, and is also an excellent choice for home users who want the same professional-grade material used by experienced book coverers.
Unlike many inexpensive adhesive coverings, Plascote 80 is predictable to work with and settles down to a smooth, glass-clear finish when applied using the correct technique.

Predictable to apply
Quality film and consistent adhesive make Plascote easier to control than many cheaper book coverings.
Clear, smooth finish
The gloss surface enhances the appearance of the book while keeping its original artwork clearly visible.
Made for real books
The film conforms well to embossed covers, hardcover edges and the gutters along the edges of hardback books.
Easy measuring and accurate cutting
A 20 mm blue grid printed on the backing paper makes it easy to measure, cut straight lines and position the book accurately before covering.
A size for almost every book
Plascote 80 is available in a wide range of roll widths from 75 mm to 900 mm. Selecting a roll close to the size of the book reduces waste and makes covering quicker and more economical.

Amazing!
I am an avid book reader and wanted to find a way to protect my collection. After a quick chat online I was pointed in the direction of what would work best. It arrived today and I can’t express how happy I am! I have covered two books and it is such great quality, easy to apply with no bubbles. If you’re thinking about it for your beloved books- I would recommend doing it! Worth the investment (at a very affordable price)! Made a loyal customer out of me!

Our school has been using Plascote for many years. It's such a great, easy to use covering, bubble free with a really glossy finish. Super friendly staff too!
