We’re here to help you get the packaging you need
As the UK and Ireland's largest distributor of protective packaging, we have a wide range of PVC tape that can help you securly seal your packaging.
Vinyl tape, also known as PVC tape (polyvinyl chloride tape), is essential in packaging due to its versatility and durability.
It can be used for various applications, including carton sealing, tamper evident sealing, colour coding and marking or even branding if you're using custom printed PVC tape.
Ultimately, vinyl tape’s strength and versatility make it invaluable for protecting, identifying, and enhancing the appearance of packaged goods.
PVC tape and vinyl tape are terms that both refer to tape manufactured with a polyvinyl chloride backing.
There are lots of different PVC tape varieties available. Differences will usually be related to the size of the rolls of tape, the tape colour and the adhesive used on the PVC tape.
Using PVC tape offers several benefits, including:
- Tears easily if packing by hand.
- Long-term sealing.
- Easy to use on handheld tape dispensers.
- Contributes to parcel security through effective sealing.
At Macfarlane Packaging, our premium vinyl tapes use a solvent-based adhesive, which offers long-lasting sealing and tolerance to the widest range of temperatures.
PVC vinyl tape is made from a PVC (polyvinyl chloride) backing with an adhesive.
At Macfarlane, our PVC tapes use a solvent-based adhesive. This means they’re great for short and long-term sealing, as well as cold chain environments.
Vinyl tape is not waterproof, but it is resistant to moisture, making it suitable for applications where protection against water or mild weather conditions is needed.
It’s recommended that you check if a particular packaging tape is suitable for your needs at the point of purchase. Our handy, free Packing Tape Guide offers a guide to adhesives and tape types; why not download it? Alternatively, speak to our team of experts for further support.
