Choose the Right Custom Tape
Water-Activated Tape (WAT): This is the strong, reinforced paper tape you see on Amazon boxes. It’s activated with water and sticks firmly to cardboard. We can print logos or branding on this tape, and it’s a great option if you want security, strength, and a curbside-recyclable material.
Pressure-Sensitive Tape (PST): This is a clear or white plastic tape most people are familiar with for sealing boxes. It sticks without water and is easy to apply using a standard tape dispenser.
Masking Tape: A paper-based tape that’s easy to tear and often used for short-term labeling or general-purpose sealing. Custom printing is available in low quantities.
Flat Back Tape: A smooth, paper-backed tape often used in industrial settings where a clean release is important.
Need Something Else? We also offer specialty tapes like polypropylene or printed filament tape. If you’re not sure what you need, we’ll help you pick the right tape type, adhesive, and print method based on your packaging and your budget.
Customize with Confidence
Print: 1-color, 2-color, and full-color, depending on your tape type and design
Tape Base: Kraft paper, white, or clear plastic
Finishes: Available finishes depend on tape material. Kraft paper tapes have a natural matte look, while plastic-based tapes come in standard gloss or clear finishes
Width & Length: Standard widths of 2” and 3”. Roll lengths vary from 300 to 1000 feet per roll, depending on tape type and supplier
Adhesive Options: Choose between permanent bonding for added security or resealable options for special cases. We’ll help you match the adhesive to your shipping needs.
Sustainability: Water-activated tape is curbside recyclable with cardboard boxes. Other options, like pressure-sensitive plastic tape, are not recyclable. We’ll help you choose a material that fits both your packaging goals and your environmental values.
Not sure what’s right for your brand? We’ll walk you through the differences and help you compare adhesives, finishes, and print layouts. Our goal is to get you a custom solution that meets your needs without the guesswork.
