Benefits of custom printed tapes and labels
Colour printed custom labels and tape, is an effective way to brand, message, protect, and build trust.
- Branding: Custom printed labels and tape can strengthen brand recognition. Your brand front-and-centre reinforces your company identity whenever someone receives a delivery of your goods.
- Messaging: While a logo or brand name is more than sufficient to help you brand and enforce your brand, many businesses like to use custom printed tapes to convey a specific message or promotion. Whether you want them to know about an upcoming sale, an event, or a new product or service; it’s a great way to spread the word.
- Hazard Identification: If you ship liquids, corrosive materials, sharp objects, or fragile items, you can use custom printed tape to identify hazards.
- Security: To enhance trust and protect the contents of a package, custom printed tape can serve as a tamper-evident seal. This is useful for any product, mainly if you deal in high-value goods or food packaging.
What are custom printed tapes made from?
Custom printed tapes are made from varying materials; in addition to kraft tape made from paper, custom printed packaging tapes are available using polypropylene, polylactic acid, and PVC film.
In addition to these, there are different adhesives, including acrylic, natural rubber, synthetic rubber, and hot melt adhesive.
Industries served
Various industries rely on custom packaging tapes. They’re a cost-effective choice for smaller businesses looking to build a brand without spending big on packaging supplies like tissue paper, a printed shipping box, or padded mailing bags.
- E-commerce: E-commerce businesses don’t offer face-to-face service, so their packaging is essential for building brand awareness and customer trust. Custom tape puts your brand front and centre the moment it arrives, building excitement for the arrival and adding professionalism.
- Clothing and apparel: Custom tape can reflect a brand’s unique style, from minimalistic logos that elevate your identity to bold designs that express your unique designs.
- Cosmetics: Presentation is everything in the beauty industry, and custom-printed tape can extend your polished image. You can create eye-catching glossy tape with subtle accents or choose bright, bold colours.
- Vitamins and supplements: Health and wellness is a big business, and custom tape can reinforce trust and transparency. In addition to serving as a branding tool, tamper-evident tape lets customers know their products are safe.
- Manufacturing: Whether you’re shipping the completed product or raw materials, manufacturers are dealing with massive shipments. Custom tape provides brand consistency as it moves throughout the supply chain, giving your shipments a trustworthy appearance to end-users and business partners.
Parts: Whether you work in auto parts or deal in boats or planes, custom packaging tape is a must. Heavy-duty, high-strength tape will secure large shipments and add a professional touch.
Frequently Asked Questions
For new orders the order will take ten to fifteen working days after the artwork is approved.
For repeat orders, the order will take seven to ten working days.
The minimum order is one carton. However, the amount of tape rolls per carton will depend on the product itself and the size of the rolls.
If you want to order less than one carton, get in touch with the Stylus Tapes team to discuss your options. A surcharge will be applied to orders that don't meet the minimum quantity guidelines.
The price will depend on the type of tape you want and the size of the roll. It will also depend on the number of colours printed and the number of rolls ordered, with the price per roll reducing the more you order.
You may pay additional fees for reverse printing, block charges per colour for a new order, PMS colour matching, or flood coating.
We offer PMS colour matching, which allows us to print over 1000 colours, excluding fluorescent or metallic shades. All of our custom printed tapes also have standard printing colours, and you can discuss your options with our team of experts here.
We stock a wide range of sizes for every tape we sell. These vary in width from 18.77mm to 150mm. Length-wise, rolls vary from 48m to 100m for hand rolls and between 490mm and 1000m for machine rolls. Ultimately, the size depends on the tape product you choose.
Yes. With the exception of our paper tapes, all of our custom printed tapes can have a special background colour applied via flood coat. For an additional fee, a flood coat covers the entire width and length of the tape to establish your chosen background colour, and then a second ink is used on top to print the logo or brand name.
The most effective way to ensure strong adhesion is to apply your custom printed tape to a clean, dry surface.
If you using hand rolls a dispenser will be the quickest and most efficient way to complete the task. A dispenser will ensure the tape unrolls smoothly and is applied without air pockets.
Press firmly as it dispenses to avoid bubbles. To protect the adhesive, store your rolls of tape in a cool, dry place. Additionally, beware of over-tensioning during application, which can reduce the adhesive's strength.
The most straightforward option is to purchase tape from our eco-friendly range. Our eco-friendly tapes are recyclable or compostable, so there's no need to worry about their footprint.
Many of our tapes are machine tape length and with automated packaging machines. There are also several suitable for use in a tape dispenser, so when your machine pallet wraps are complete, it's simple to apply tape.
If you want tape compatible with automated packaging equipment, contact the Stylus Team to discuss your best options. We can provide you with technical information or recommendations for the tape that best meets your needs.
Yes our 100m custom tape rolls will fit in a standard tape dispenser.
