Coloured Packing Tape

Adhesive Pack Tape Company is a manufacturer of coloured packing tape for export carton sealing, warehouse dispatch, and route-based carton identification. Made from PP/BOPP film with strong pressure-sensitive adhesive, the tape seals corrugated cartons while adding a clear colour signal for picking areas, stock status, outbound batches, and delivery groups. It is produced for daily packing work where smooth unwind, clean slit edges, stable colour batches, and reliable carton adhesion are important.

Product Overview

In export packing and warehouse dispatch, colour coded packing tape gives a carton two useful functions: secure sealing and quick visual recognition. Many kraft cartons look similar but may belong to different customers, inspection stages, pallet groups, or loading areas. A visible colour strip on the carton edge helps staff identify the carton before scanning, reopening, or moving it to the next packing station.

The tape uses PP/BOPP film backing with a coated acrylic adhesive layer for standard corrugated cartons. Typical factory reference values include 40um-55um total thickness, 23um-28um BOPP film thickness, and 17um-27um adhesive coating thickness. Roll surface flatness, slit edge neatness, colour consistency, and unwind smoothness are checked together because poor edges or uneven unwind can cause tearing, tape flagging, edge lifting, or colour mismatch across multi-carton export orders.

This product is not made as craft tape or office stationery tape. It is designed for packing teams that need cartons to be sealed, sorted, and recognised quickly. Red can mark urgent cartons, green can show checked stock, yellow can indicate a picking area, and blue can separate a customer group. The colour system works best when it stays simple and consistent across each shift.

Benefits

• Creates colour-coded cartons without changing carton printing or label systems.
• Supports picking areas, stock rotation, batch separation, and carton status marking.
• PP/BOPP film backing gives stable tensile strength during sealing and pallet handling.
• Coloured carton sealing tape separates urgent cartons, checked stock, returns, and export batches by colour.
• Acrylic adhesive gives practical tack on kraft, recycled, and corrugated cartons after sample testing.
• Clean slit edges reduce tearing, uneven unwind, tape flagging, and edge lifting during fast packing.
• Typical 180 degree peel adhesion is 4.5-6.5 N/25mm, with holding power tested at >=24h under factory reference conditions.

What should be checked before using coloured packing tape on export cartons?

Before applying the tape to export cartons, check the carton surface, sealing pressure, overlap length, tape thickness, and colour assignment together. Recycled cartons, dusty cartons, or cartons with weak surface coating should be tested before bulk packing because adhesion can change from one carton board to another. For export use, a stable seal depends on tack, clean slit edges, steady unwind, firm hand pressure, and correctly adjusted machine rollers.

Applications

• Export carton sealing for container loading and pallet shipment
• Colour coding tape for cartons used in picking areas and batch separation
• Stock status marking for checked, pending, urgent, or return goods
• E-commerce parcel packing where carton colour signals order type
• Production batch identification before pallet wrapping or staging
• Customer group separation for mixed outbound carton flows
• Manual packing benches, hand dispensers, and semi-automatic carton sealers
• Mixed-SKU packing lines where similar kraft cartons need quick visual separation

How does coloured tape help warehouse picking zones and dispatch routes?

BOPP coloured packing tape helps warehouse teams recognise cartons faster before loading, scanning, or relabelling. In picking areas, one colour can mark urgent dispatch, another can show checked stock, and another can separate returns, samples, or export orders. This visual layer reduces repeated carton checking when many cartons share the same size and kraft appearance. For better control, the colour should be visible on at least two carton edges, and staff should follow the same colour assignment across each shift. Used this way, coloured tape for warehouse dispatch becomes both a sealing material and a simple visual control tool.

FAQ

Is coloured packing tape suitable for export cartons?

Yes. It is suitable when the carton surface is clean, dry, and tested before bulk use. For recycled corrugated cartons, sample adhesion testing is recommended.

Can this tape be used on carton sealing machines?

Yes. Standard widths such as 48mm and 50mm can be used on many hand dispensers and semi-automatic carton sealers when machine tension is correctly adjusted.

Does the colour affect adhesive strength?

The colour is mainly for identification. Adhesion depends more on film thickness, adhesive coating, carton surface, storage condition, and application pressure.

What colours are commonly used for warehouse dispatch?

Common choices include red, blue, green, yellow, white, black, and orange. Each colour can be assigned to a route, zone, stock status, or export batch.
