Promote your brand message on your packaging with a very cost-effective method using packing tape. A well-designed custom tape is a great way to promote your brand, viewed by many people during transit through the delivery network and recognisable by your customers.
Custom Printed Packing Tape
The most cost-effective custom print tape is the 150m on a 50mm E-Tape core. As the rolls are longer and reduced core size there are savings to be made as production and distribution efficiencies are maximised.
The printed E-Tape is packed in 36 rolls per box and delivery to the UK mainland (not including the Scottish Highlands) is included in the price.
Lead times are 10-14 days after approved artwork.

Water-based acrylic adhesives use water to separate their adhesive molecules. When the water evaporates, strong bonds are formed. One of the main advantages of water-based adhesives is that they are environmentally friendly due to their low volatile organic compound (VOC) content and are an economically viable alternative to solvent-based adhesives. Acrylic adhesive is the most popular packaging tape.
Hot melt adhesive is a thermoplastic adhesive, Hot melt tapes have a significantly higher, initial, adhesion in comparison to acrylic tape. They have a high bonding power (referred to as shear value) and tensile strength, with quick tack. A hot melt tape is ideal for applications involving machine-applied tapes, overstuffed cartons, or cartons with a high degree of recycled content.
Solvent-based adhesives are acrylic polymers in petroleum-based solvents. The advantage of solvent-based adhesives is their strength, toughness and durability over time. It is true that they provide superior shear and peel resistance than water-based adhesives, however, their solvents make them more expensive and are not environmentally friendly.
