Material Specifications
Substrate – BOPP Film: Our tape uses Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) film as the base substrate. Through the biaxial stretching process, molecular chains are oriented in both machine and transverse directions, endowing the film with superior physical and mechanical properties.

Features of Custom Clear Packing Tape
Advantages of Custom Clear Packing Tape
| Dimension | Specific Advantages |
|---|---|
| Brand Exposure | Each package is handled by at least 3–5 people (packer, sorter, courier, recipient) — tape becomes a low-cost, high-frequency brand touchpoint. |
| Tamper Evidence | Custom tape acts as a “brand seal” — once torn, damage is immediately visible and irreparable; end consumers can instantly verify if packages were opened in transit. |
| Enhanced Unboxing Experience | Branded tape conveys a “professional and caring” brand image, building consumer trust and repeat purchase intent. |
| Competitive Differentiation | Among countless delivery parcels, distinctively branded tape makes your packages instantly identifiable at sorting centers, parcel lockers, and front doors. |
| Cost Savings on Secondary Packaging | Eliminates the need for “plain carton + adhesive label” — reduces additional consumable procurement and management costs. |

Production Process & Printing Techniques
We maintain full in-house production capabilities from master roll coating → printing → slitting → packaging, ensuring total quality control at every stage.
【Step 1】BOPP Film Procurement: Sourced from premium domestic and international suppliers; 100% incoming inspection.
【Step 2】Coating & Lamination: Uniform application of water-based acrylic adhesive → Oven curing (thickness tolerance controlled within ±2μm).
【Step 3】Master Roll Curing: 48–72 hours in temperature/humidity-controlled environment — full adhesive-film integration.
【Step 4】Custom Printing: Plate-making → Color matching → Sample production → Customer approval → Bulk printing (1–5 colors).
【Step 5】Slitting & Rewinding: Precision slitting to width/length; edge flatness ≤0.5mm.
【Step 6】Final Quality Inspection: In-line inspection (coating thickness monitoring, print registration check, width/diameter measurement) + lab sampling.
【Step 7】Packaging & Warehousing: PE stretch wrap/shrink film + export cartons.
We utilize the flexographic printing process — the most mature and efficient printing method in the packaging tape industry.· Printing Colors: Supports 1–5 color printing, capable of reproducing complex logos and graphics.
· Color Selection: Pantone spot color matching available for precise brand color accuracy.
· Ink Type: Eco-friendly water-based inks, compliant with export environmental standards.
· Plate Cost: One-time plate-making fee; subsequent reorders using the same plate cylinder are exempt from plate charges (for identical designs).

Why Choose Us
Handling, Storage & Application Guide
· Surface Cleaning: Ensure carton surfaces are dry, dust-free, oil-free, and frost-free before application. Dust and oil significantly reduce initial tack and ultimate adhesion strength.
· Application Temperature: Recommended surface temperature no lower than 10°C. In cold conditions, store tape at room temperature (20–25°C) for 24 hours prior to use — adhesive performance will recover to normal levels.
· Pressure Application: After application, firmly press the tape surface using a squeegee or by hand to ensure full contact and wetting with the carton surface — this substantially improves bond strength.
· Temperature & Humidity: Constant 20–25°C and relative humidity 50%–65% to avoid adhesive contamination.
· Light Exposure: Avoid direct sunlight and prolonged UV exposure to prevent BOPP film embrittlement.
· Stacking: Store horizontally (axial orientation horizontal) — avoid vertical stacking to prevent deformation; stack height max 5 layers.
· Shelf Life & FIFO: Shelf life is 12 months. Warehouse management should follow First-In-First-Out principles to prevent expiration.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How long does it take from order confirmation to delivery?
A: Typically 15–20 working days (after design approval and deposit receipt). Rush orders can be negotiated, with expedited delivery in as few as 10–12 working days.
Q2: Can you provide free samples?
A: Standard stock samples are available free of charge (shipping at recipient’s expense). Custom printed samples require a sampling fee, which is fully refundable against mass production orders.
Q3: What payment terms do you accept?
A: We accept T/T, L/C, PayPal, Western Union, etc. For first-time cooperation, 30%–50% deposit is typically required, with balance due before shipment.
Q4: Is the tape compatible with automatic carton sealers?
A: Absolutely. Our tape rolls are uniformly wound with flat edges and specially treated splices, compatible with C-type, H-type, and all major automatic sealers as well as manual dispensers. No jamming, no tracking deviation, no breakage during operation.
Q5: How long do printing plates last? Do I need to pay plate fees again for reorders?
A: Flexographic plates, when properly maintained, can last for years. For identical designs, no additional plate fees are required for reorders (for the same dimensions).
Q6: Will the tape fail under high or low temperatures?
A: The product operates within -10°C to 60°C. Initial tack decreases at low temperatures (recommend storing at room temperature before use); at high temperatures, the adhesive remains stable with no oozing or softening.
Q7: What certifications do you provide for exports to Europe?
A: We can supply RoHS and REACH test reports. For special certification needs (e.g., CE, German Packaging Act EPR), please specify at order placement — we can arrange third-party testing.
Q8: Can you handle rush orders?
A: Yes. Please notify us in advance when placing your order. We will prioritize production scheduling for rush orders (expediting fees apply depending on circumstances).
Q9: Can multiple logo designs be printed on the same roll?
A: Yes — provided that all designs share the same printing circumference and use the same plate cylinder. More commonly, different designs are produced as separate SKUs and consolidated for shipment in agreed proportions.
