Find the right tape for your operation

Answer 5 quick questions — we'll recommend the right tape, adhesive, and setup for your specific situation.

Let's find the right tape for your operation.

Step 1 of 5

What are you trying to do?

Start with your situation — we'll handle the rest.

📦 Seal boxes or cartons for shipping

🔗 Bundle, reinforce, or strap items together

🏭 Mark or organize warehouse floors or work areas

🖌️ Protect surfaces during construction, painting, or finishing

✨ Put my brand or logo on packaging

Step 2 of 5

How heavy are your typical boxes or shipments?

This helps us match you with the right tape strength.

🪶 Light — under 20 lbs Documents, soft goods, retail items

⚖️ Medium — 20 to 50 lbs Food products, industrial parts, standard retail

🏋️ Heavy — over 50 lbs Machinery, dense materials, bulk goods

🤔 Not sure yet

💡 How tape strength works: Tape strength is measured in mil thickness — the amount of adhesive on the roll. Heavier boxes need more adhesive to hold through handling and transit.

Step 3 of 5

What does your environment look like?

Temperature affects which adhesive will actually stick.

🌡️ Climate controlled Consistently above 50°F year round

❄️ Cold or uninsulated Freezer storage, cold climates, unheated warehouse

🌦️ Outdoor or variable Exposed to sun, rain, or seasonal temperature changes

🤔 Not sure

⚡ Why this matters: Hot melt adhesive hardens and loses grip below 45°F. If your warehouse gets cold in winter and your tape starts failing, this is usually why.

Step 4 of 5

How many boxes does your team seal per day?

Volume determines whether a dispenser machine makes sense for your operation.

📮 Fewer than 50 Occasional shipping or small operation

📫 50 to 200 Regular daily shipping

🏭 More than 200 High-volume fulfillment or production environment

🤔 Not sure yet — we're just getting started

⚡ About dispensers: At higher volumes, a water activated tape dispenser pays for itself quickly — both in tape savings and in the time your team gets back.

Step 5 of 5

Would you like your logo or brand on the tape?

Custom printed tape is more accessible than most people expect.

🎨 Yes — I want my logo on every box we ship

🔒 Yes — mainly for security and tamper-evidence

💭 Maybe — I'd like to understand how it works first

✓ No — plain tape works for us right now
