Picking the Right Packaging Tape
Tuesday, February 25, 2025
Packaging tape might seem like a small detail, but it plays a big role in keeping your shipments secure. Whether you’re sealing boxes for shipping, adding a branded touch, or looking for something extra strong, choosing the right tape makes all the difference. At Brandpack, we offer a range of options to suit your needs.
What Type of Packaging Tape Should You Use?
Polypropylene Tape – The Reliable Choice
Polypropylene tape is a great all-rounder. It’s durable, cost-effective, and does the job for everyday packaging. If you’re sealing lightweight to medium-weight boxes, this is a solid pick.
Paper Tape – The Eco-Friendly Option
If sustainability matters to you, paper tape is the way to go. It’s biodegradable and recyclable while still being strong enough to keep your parcels sealed. Plus, it has a natural, clean look that works well for custom branding.
PVC Tape – The Heavy-Duty Solution
For tougher jobs, PVC tape offers extra durability and a strong hold. It’s ideal for heavier packages or situations where your boxes need to stay extra secure.
Understanding Adhesives: What’s the Best Choice?
The right adhesive depends on how and where you’ll be using your tape. Here’s a quick breakdown:
Hotmelt Adhesive – Strong and quick-bonding, great for high-volume use.
Acrylic Adhesive – Available in silent and standard options, ideal for storage since it doesn’t yellow over time.
Solvent Adhesive – Extra sticky and durable, perfect for rougher surfaces or extreme conditions.
