When shopping for shipping and packaging materials, it can be hard to figure out exactly what products are for you. With so many options for shipping boxes, bubble mailers and envelopes, and more, you might find yourselves fatigued with decision making by the time you are ready to purchase a heavy-duty packing tape. If you aren't sure where to start, here are some things to keep in mind:
What kinds of heavy-duty packing tape does Staples carry?
We carry a range of heavy-duty packing tapes to suit all of your needs, including acrylic packing tape, water-activated shipping tape, rubber adhesive packing tape, and hot melt shipping tape. We carry these in clear and opaque tapes to fulfill your needs, so you are sure to have a heavy-duty packing tape that fits your specific branding needs.
What is hot melt shipping tape?
For those who need a little extra strength, hot melt shipping tape is the way to go. Hot melt shipping tape provides a stronger bond, seals faster, and takes less time to apply than acrylic tape. This type of tape does tend to yellow with age though, unlike acrylic packing tape.
Should I choose hot melt shipping tape or acrylic packing tape?
Packing can be a pain and you want to make sure that your boxes ship safely. Hot melt shipping tape is a heavy-duty packing tape that can withstand some serious wear and tear, making it perfect for heavy-duty applications. It is also resistant to tears, scuffing, and exposure to some chemicals. Use it for bulk packaging, rough surfaces, and going over edges. Acrylic packing tape is less expensive and is also very effective, but might not hold up to temperature variations or the shifting distribution in tension caused by heavier packages. If you're still not sure which heavy-duty packing tape is right for you, you can ask one of our associates in-store or use our chat to help make a decision.
