Hand Packaging Tape
Packaging Tape for Every Application
Whether you’re sealing cartons for eCommerce, shipping industrial freight, or keeping warehouse stock organised, choosing the right packaging tape makes all the difference. At Power Packaging, we stock a complete range of tapes to suit every requirement — from everyday acrylic tapes to high-tack natural rubber adhesives and eco-conscious paper tapes.
Our packing tapes are available in a variety of widths, thicknesses, and finishes. They work seamlessly with standard dispensers and are suitable for both manual and automated applications, ensuring a reliable seal every time.
Finding the Right Adhesive
Not all packaging tapes are created equal. Each adhesive type offers unique benefits:
- Acrylic adhesives — UV-resistant with excellent clarity and a long shelf life.
- Hot melt adhesives — quick initial tack and aggressive bonding, ideal for high-speed operations.
- Natural rubber adhesives — exceptional performance, even in extreme conditions.
Whatever your packaging challenge, Power Packaging has a tape solution designed to keep your goods secure in storage, transit, and delivery.
Adhesive Comparison Chart
| Adhesive Type | Key Features | Best Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| Acrylic | UV-resistant, long shelf life, affordable | Long-term storage, general shipping |
| Hot-Melt | Fast tack, strong bond, good for cold temps | High-speed sealing, busy packing lines |
| Natural Rubber | Superior adhesion, works in extreme temps | Industrial, outdoor, and freezer use |
Clear Packaging Tape
Clear tape is the go-to choice for clean, professional packaging. Available with acrylic, hot-melt, and rubber adhesives, clear packaging tape blends seamlessly with cartons and offers strong adhesion for both lightweight and medium-duty applications.
Brown Packaging Tape
Brown (tan) packaging tape is popular for sealing cardboard boxes where discretion and appearance aren’t critical. It provides excellent strength and is typically available in hot-melt or rubber-based adhesives for durability.
Paper & Kraft Packaging Tape
Looking for sustainable sealing solutions? Our paper-based tapes offer eco-friendly alternatives to plastic. Suitable for recycling and composting, these tapes are strong, water-resistant, and ideal for environmentally conscious businesses.
Custom Printed Tape
Custom packaging tape is a cost-effective branding tool. Add your logo or message to every parcel while improving tamper evidence. Available in both paper and plastic varieties, custom tape is a smart investment in both marketing and security.
