Tapes

Tapes From Packaging Express

Quality tapes are an absolute must in packaging, transporting, and securing your items, but don’t worry we have every variety of tape you'll need to find the right fit for your packing needs. Our packaging tapes are trusted and respected by businesses across a wide range of market sectors, and we have no doubt that they will be worthy of your business as well.

Standard Packing Tape

Everyday tape for light commercial applications that is more than adequate for daily use. Available in two colours of brown and clear. 

Low Noise Polypropylene Packing Tape

Our bestselling and most popular tape, suitable for any office or business, online or off. Pro-Loc branded tape provides reduced noise application along with commercial reliability. Available in either 48mm or 72mm wide and 66M long.

Extra Length Low Noise Tape

Because of the extended length of tape on each 150 metre roll, it allows for faster packing speeds and increased efficiency in factories and warehouses. We stock both U-Max and Big Tape brands so quality can be assured. Due to the extra length on each roll this tape has a smaller core size, which require specific tape dispensers.

Printed Low Noise Warning Tapes

Made from polypropylene with brightly printed red warning text on a white background. This is a robust professional tape that is typically used in the workplace. Choose from four different types to prominently label your items with the appropriate warnings: Fragile, Handle with Care, Caution and Contents Checked. Roll widths of 48mm (2") and lengths of 66 metres.

Coloured Low Noise Packing Tapes

Can be used to distinguish between batches or to provide an area where information can be handwritten. You can also use it to colour code your goods making them easily identifiable, ultimately minimising costly mistakes. Our range includes five different colours: red, blue, green, yellow, and white, with measurements of 48mm (2") x 66 metres (width x length).

Vinyl Low Noise Extra Strength Tape

Used by all businesses needing securely taped heavy or large items. A strong and long lasting high quality tape that gets added strength as it is made from vinyl and not polypropylene. A strong adhesion with a low noise application, it adheres instantly to all paper and cardboard surfaces. Tear and burst resistant, and suitable for varied conditions and temperatures. Our range includes 3 different colours: clear, brown and white with dimensions of 48mm (2") x 66 metres (width x length).

Masking Tape

Has a low tack solvent adhesive that leaves no residue on most surfaces. Use it to decorate indoors, and because it is resistant to water and heat, it is also suitable for outdoor use. Allows you to mark off areas with no risk of bleeding or surface damage. Available in widths of 25mm (1") & 50mm (2") and lengths of 50 metres.

Double-Sided Tape

Double sided sticky tape, also known as double faced tape and double coated tape, is used to connect two surfaces. It’s designed in a way that it connects two sides together and can’t be seen in the final result. This is because the tape is bonded between the pieces rather than over them. A high-tack tape with a superior acrylic adhesive on both sides that delivers exceptional bonding performance. A tough, shear-resistant tape that is resistant to chemicals, glues, solvents, and temperature changes. Sold in widths of 12mm/25mm/50mm and lengths of 50 metres.

Crossweave Reinforced Tape

The strongest tape on the market used as a more durable alternative to polypropylene and vinyl tapes. It will stick to most materials, including paper and cardboard. Because of its robust and long-lasting seal, the reinforced filament tape can be applied anywhere additional protection is necessary. Use this to pack big shipment boxes or odd-shaped products. This burst and tear resistant material is suited for most surfaces. Sold in widths of 25mm/50mm/75mm and in lengths of 50 metres.

Duct Tape

Provides long lasting adhesion to most surfaces and is easily torn by hand for ease of use. Because of its toughness, durability, strength and water resistance, it is used both inside and out, and adheres best to flat, smooth surfaces. Made by layering thin fibres onto scrim, and then coated with polyethylene. This result is a super-durable tape that is tougher and has more diverse applications than other available tapes. This makes it the go-to solution for quick fixes. It can repair anything, including vehicles, garments, and leaking pipes. Sold in widths of 50mm and lengths of 50 metres.

Kraft Paper Tape

Acrylic kraft paper tape differs from gummed tape in that it does not require water to activate the adhesive. It is highly elastic, secure and long-lasting, with excellent tear resistance. Strong adhesion makes it ideal for uneven surfaces and it is highly resistant to moisture and humidity. Because the tape is tamper-proof and more secure than standard packing tapes online sellers and fulfilment operations use it as their go to tape. The dimensions are 48mm (2") x 66 metres (width x length).

Gummed Paper Water Activated Tape

When applied, this is the most powerful tape available for packing with. For use with gummed tape dispensers which can be purchased from our Packaging Systems & Machinery section. Gummed paper tape is hard to remove from the outer packaging because of its natural starch adhesive, that bonds quickly and strongly to the box's natural fibres. Because of this you'd know right away if the tape was tampered with during storage or transit. It is completely biodegradable and recyclable.

Custom Printed Packing Tapes

Advertise your company on every order you send out for free by printing your businesses name, slogan, website address, contact details and the like onto your own custom tape. Please email us with your logo or desired message after you order, and there is a 2-3 week lead time to approve your artwork and print the tape. Repeat orders can be turned around much faster.

Tape Guns & Dispensers

Our entry-level tape gun offers excellent value for money and is suitable for standard tape cores of 48mm/2". Our Pro-Series gun is designed for busy warehouses, packing rooms and businesses that require maximum performance and is also suitable for standard tape cores of 48mm/2". The Umax gun is for use with our range of Umax tapes. Due to the extra length of tape on each 150 metre roll packing this way is faster with fewer roll changes.

Bench Dispenser

Can be used with both 24mm & 48mm tape. Due to its heavy-duty metal construction it remains in place when dispensing tape, but for added strength, it can also be fixed to benches or desks using small screws.
