Packing Tape and Parcel Tape

We stock a wide range of packing and parcel tapes for sealing cardboard boxes in storage, transit or dispatch. Standard polypropylene, hotmelt and low-noise tapes are supplied on 48mm x 66M rolls and designed for use with handheld tape guns, making them ideal for general packing benches and warehouse use. These offer reliable adhesion for everyday parcels and are available in clear or brown finishes, as well as printed options such as fragile tape for handling instructions or basic branding.

For heavier cartons or higher-volume dispatch operations, we also supply reinforced crossweave tape and water-activated paper tape. Crossweave includes fibre reinforcement for added strength, while water-activated tape bonds directly to the surface of the cardboard to create a secure, tamper-evident seal. This type is dispensed through a dedicated water activated tape dispenser unit and is commonly used in fast-paced, high output environments. If you’re looking for consistent performance and efficient sealing, our full packing tape range covers options for both general and industrial use, alongside tape dispensers to complete your setup.

FAQs

Polypropylene tape is commonly used for general packing tasks and offers good adhesion on standard cardboard surfaces. Hotmelt tape uses a synthetic rubber adhesive, which gives stronger initial tack and performs better in cold or dusty environments - making it ideal for warehouse or export packing.

“Fragile” tape is a type of printed tape, usually pre-printed with handling instructions. We also stock other printed options such as “Handle with Care” or branded use. These are available on standard rolls compatible with handheld dispensers.

For heavier or overfilled cartons, reinforced crossweave tape and reinfoced water activated tape both provide additional strength. The fibres running through the tape improve resistance to tearing or splitting during transport. It’s a common choice for export packaging, longer-term storage, or bulky items.

Yes – paper tape is fully recyclable along with cardboard. It’s a great choice if you’re aiming to reduce plastic use in your packing setup, and it can often be torn by hand for faster application.

Yes – water-activated tape requires a dedicated dispenser that moistens and applies the tape in one motion. This system creates a secure, tamper-evident bond and is typically used in higher-volume operations where speed and seal strength are a priority.

How to Choose the Right Packing Tape

Different tapes suit different packing setups, and choosing the right type can help speed up workflows, reduce waste and ensure cartons stay securely sealed in storage or transit. Standard polypropylene tape is a versatile, cost-effective option commonly used on packing benches and in automated systems. It’s also supplied in larger roll formats as machine tape, compatible with case sealers and carton erectors for high volume operations.

Hotmelt and low-noise variants provide extra grip or quieter application, depending on the working environment. For heavier or bulkier loads, reinforced crossweave tape offers additional strength and tear resistance. Paper tape is a recyclable alternative for businesses reducing plastic use, and water-activated tape creates a tamper-evident bond with minimal material – ideal for export or frequent dispatch where speed and security matter.
