Hand Length Tape

We stock hot melt, acrylic, and natural rubber adhesive tapes from 3M, Intertape, and Bemis.

Machine Length Tape
Intertape | Bemis

Extended length tape is carton sealing tape that comes in 1000 to 2000 yard lengths. This variation of carton sealing tape is seen in industrial applications where case sealing equipment is used. We carry acrylic and hot melt machine length carton sealing tape from well known brands such as Intertape and Bemis.

Flat back Paper Tape
As low as $4.65 a roll!

This easy to tear brown kraft paper tape gives your corrugated cartons a natural and professional look. As with our standard carton sealing tapes this tape has a pressure sensitive adhesive, meaning that applied pressure on the tape to a surface ensures the adhesion.

Pre-printed packaging tapes are useful in many ways as they seal the carton, convey handling instructions, alert shipping personnel and can even be bi-lingual all in one tape! This eliminates the need for multiple labels on the box where they may not be seen, as the tape presents a message and seals the box.

Tamper Evident Tape
Starting at $16.75 a roll!

Security tape is effective in deterring pilferage and theft of your box contents. This tamper evident tape, although not TSA approved, is great for security measures for important and expensive goods. Once the tape has had enough dwell time (up to 6 hours), a legend is left behind when it is removed that reads "OPENED VOID."

Water Activated
Gummed Paper Tape
As low as $5.35 a roll!

Water activated tape, also known as gummed tape, is a strong and natural colored tape. This tape does not come sticky, but rather needs to be wetted with warm water in order to activate it's adhesive. Gummed tape dispensers are needed to activate this tape and are quite effective and handy for shipping stations. Water activated tape can also be re-enforced with fiberglass threads for added stability.
