Types of Printed Paper Tape

We offer a range of different printed paper tapes with different coloured backing papers and different finishes. Choosing a branded paper tape that suits your packaging is important to give a professional look to your parcels, and to make sure your parcels stay secure on their journey to the customer. Take a look at our range below and see which one will be best for you.

Printed White Paper Tape with Hot Melt Adhesive

Our white paper tape is a semi-crepe paper backing material with a high tack hot melt adhesive. The semi-crepe type of paper tape gives a matt finish which feels similar to masking tape but with a fully bleached white colour. Custom printed white paper tape is popular among online shops for taping white boxes for sending orders by post because it looks more professional than using brown or clear tape. The white colour makes coloured logos stand out well so is best if you have coloured logos to print onto the paper tape.

Bespoke Printed Brown Kraft Semi-Crepe Paper Tape

Bespoke printed brown semi-crepe kraft paper tape is a matt finished paper tape with a nice brown kraft colour. Printed kraft brown paper tape is popular for taping parcels as it blends in well with the colour of brown boxes and allows the logos and brand messages printed on the tape to stand out. Matching matt brown paper tape to the colour of the boxes also looks more professional. Brown semi-crepe paper tape has a hot melt adhesive which is a good general purpose tape that can be used for most packing requirements and for securing protective packaging.

Personalised Brown Paper Tape with Premium Solvent Adhesive

Solvent adhesive personalised brown paper tape is similar to the brown kraft semi-crepe tape in look and texture, but it has a higher tack solvent adhesive which is longer lasting and suitable for use in cold storage and humid environments. Solvent kraft paper tape can be used for applications where a higher quality adhesive is needed, or if the general purpose tape is not quite strong enough. Premium kraft tape like this is a great choice to add a touch of class to your parcels, and looks great when printed with logos and brand colours.

Custom Flat Kraft Brown Paper Tape

Custom flat kraft brown paper tape has a smooth silky surface which is different from the slightly textured surface of the semi-crepe paper tapes. Flat kraft paper tape has an opaquer finish so great for taping over printing that you need to cover up. This type of printed paper tape is usually chosen for its stronger and thicker backing paper. Stronger paper tape can be used for larger parcels or if you need to pack up particularly heavy items.

Printed Reinforced Paper Tape

Reinforced paper tape has glass reinforcing strands running through it to give extra strength and resist tearing. These reinforcing threads reduce the risk of the tape tearing in transit and is best to be used on parcels that travel long distances such as export orders. Printed reinforced paper tape is a great opportunity to add your brand to heavy duty boxes. This strong tear resistant tape can be printed in up to 4 colours with your logos and brand colours making it a versatile option for many different companies.
