Frustrated by Packaging Tape that doesn’t stick?
28/1/23
Have you ever tried to tape up a box and the packaging tape doesn’t stick?
Is packing tape not adhering properly? It’s often not a problem with the actual tape. The common issue is the type of packaging tape being used isn’t suitable for that surface or application.
There are many different environments packing tape is used every day. These environments can range from hot and dusty warehouses to cold and wet cool rooms. Understandably, there isn’t one type of tape that has superior performance in all of these environments. There is a large range of tapes for different applications, surfaces, and conditions.
Here are some of the causes of why your tape isn’t sticking to your cartons:
Selection Guide
Omni Products has developed a variety of premium adhesive tapes to suit a range of applications, surfaces, and conditions. Our range of packaging and machine tapes are available in four main adhesive types: Hybrid, Acrylic, Hot Melt Rubber, and Natural Rubber. Each adhesion type has been developed to suit different applications, surfaces, and conditions. Using to right type of packing tape is the key to effective carton sealing.

Hybrid Packaging Tape
As the name suggests, the hybrid adhesive tape has a blend of acrylic and rubber solvents. It has an aggressive and fast-bonding adhesion that is suitable for a variety of surfaces including cardboard and plastic. This high-performance tape is temperature-resistant and can be applied in hot and cold environments, ranging from -15°C to 60°C. This product is available in 75-metre hand rolls and 1000-metre-long machine rolls to suit both application methods.
Acrylic Adhesive Packaging Tape
This tape has good adhesion performance when applied to plastic, paper, and cardboard items. Packaging tape with an acrylic adhesiveis suitable to be applied and stored at low temperatures. The Omni range is available in three grades depending upon thickness: 30, 40, and 60 um. This tape is made in a wide range of widths depending on customer specifications. Acrylic packing tape won’t perform well if applied to highly recycled cardboard cartons
Hot Melt or Synthetic Rubber Adhesive Packing Tape
This type of tape has premium adhesion qualities and can be applied to paper and cardboard cartons. Hot melt packaging tapeperforms best when applied in mild to warm environments. Therefore this tape is not suitable for applying in freezers or cold storage rooms that operate under 15 degrees. The hot melt rubber adhesive is also known as synthetic rubber packing tape.
Natural Rubber Solvent Packaging Tape
Packaging tape with a natural rubber adhesive has excellent and lasting adhesion. This high-grade sticky tape is suitable for a wide variety of surfaces and temperatures. It performs well in a range of temperatures, from cool rooms to heat, and is UV tolerant. Natural rubber solvent adhesive is the most common type of packaging tape. This is because of its high-performing characteristics on a large variety of surfaces.
What is the difference between hand and machine packaging tape?
Hand rolls of packaging tape are commonly manually applied with a pistol grip tape dispenser. These hand-applied tapes are used for general purpose and carton-sealing applications. They are available in 75m, 100m, and 150m length rolls and a variety of widths to suit different applications. For each client’s specific requirements, we have the capability to slit the packing tape rolls to the exact desired width.
Machine Tape is automatically dispensed with a carton sealing machine for high-volume applications. It is manufactured in the form of extra-long rolls that are applied to the cartons through a conveyor belt mechanism. These tape rolls are available in 1000m and 2000m rolls and in acrylic, hot-melt rubber, and natural rubber adhesives. Our 2000-meter machine tape rollsare very popular with several clients, as longer rolls mean fewer roll changes and lesser packing downtime.

- Regular Grade – PLP30: This is an economical, general-purpose carton sealing tape, ideal for temporary sealing applications
- Heavy-Duty Grade – PLP40: This has a thick 40-micron adhesive liner which gives instant bind, and is the ideal choice for heavy-duty applications
- Extra Heavy Duty Grade – PLP60: With a 60-micron adhesive liner, it is the thickest packaging tape on the market. It is the best choice for very heavy-duty applications.
