03 / Choosing

Which packing tape do you need?

Carton sealing tape is chosen by its adhesive, its thickness and its width. Where the boxes are sealed and stored decides most of it.

Tell us whether you seal by hand or on a case sealer, how heavy the boxes are and how cold the warehouse gets. The tape you use now is the fastest place to start.

Read the packing tape guide

Acrylic or hot melt

Acrylic adhesive is clear and resists yellowing as it ages. Hot melt grabs fast and holds strongly on heavier boxes, recycled cartons and fast packing lines.

Cold, dusty or recycled boxes

Cold storage, dusty cartons and boxes with a lot of recycled content are harder for tape to hold. Some tapes are made for these conditions.

Thickness and width

Thicker tape is stronger and is used for heavier boxes. 2 inch tape covers most cartons; wider tape is used on larger or heavier boxes. Hand rolls fit tape guns, and longer machine rolls fit case sealers.

04 / Questions

Tape questions

Not sure which tape you need? Send us the label from your current roll.

Which packing tape holds in a cold warehouse?

Cold conditions are hard on tape, and some tapes are made for cold packing and storage. Tell us the temperature where the boxes are sealed and stored, and we will suggest a tape.

Can I add tape to the same order as my stretch film or boxes?

Yes. Tape can go on the same quote as your film or boxes, and orders of $2,500 or more ship free out of state, a single product or a mix.

Can you match the tape we buy now?

Yes. Send the brand, width, length and thickness from your current roll and we will quote the same tape or a comparable one. We are not tied to one manufacturer.

Do you carry tape dispensers?

Yes. We carry tape dispensers and accessories along with carton sealing and specialty tape.
