Your logo, on every box
Everything you need to know about custom packing tape
Custom packing tape is standard carton-sealing tape printed with your logo, brand colors, or a handling message. It does the same job as plain tape — closing and securing cartons for shipping and storage — but turns every sealed seam into a branded touchpoint. For e-commerce brands, warehouses, subscription boxes and shippers, that means a more professional package, a memorable unboxing, and a bit of free advertising on every box that leaves the dock.
Because tape is printed and slit to order, the right specification depends on what you are shipping and how the tape is applied. This guide walks through the tape materials and finishes available, common widths and roll lengths, the adhesives that drive stick and durability, how the ordering process runs from artwork to delivery, and how bulk pricing works. If you already know what you need, you can request a custom quote at any point.
Branded tape works twice — it seals the box and sells the brand
Plain brown tape disappears. Custom packing tape printed with your logo does the same sealing job while putting your brand in front of every warehouse worker, carrier and customer who handles the box. Whether you are shipping a first order to a new customer or a thousandth reorder, a branded seal makes the package look deliberate, trustworthy and unmistakably yours.

Every carton becomes a moving billboard. Print your logo, tagline or social handle in full color so your brand travels the whole journey from dock to doorstep.

Tape thickness and roll length: what to expect
Two numbers shape how a tape performs and how far a roll goes: film thickness (measured in mils) and roll length (measured in yards). Thicker films and stronger adhesives hold heavier cartons; longer rolls mean fewer changeovers on a busy packing line. Here is how common grades compare.
Typical film thickness by grade (mil)
Thicker films resist tearing and hold heavier or over-packed cartons. Values are typical ranges and vary by film and manufacturer.
Common roll lengths (yards)
Hand rolls suit manual sealing; long machine rolls feed automated case sealers with fewer changeovers.
| Tape type | Material & finish | Best for | Print method |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard BOPP Popular | Glossy polypropylene film | Everyday e-commerce & carton sealing | Flexo-printed |
| Kraft Paper | Natural paper, eco-forward finish | Sustainable brands & premium unboxing | Flexo-printed |
| Security Void | Tamper-evident film, leaves VOID | High-value & sealed-integrity shipments | Flexo-printed |
| Fragile / Handle-With-Care | High-visibility printed film | Breakables & careful-handling signals | Flexo-printed |
| Reinforced (filament) | Fiberglass-filament reinforced | Heavy cartons & demanding transit | Edge-to-edge print |
Built to seal securely and keep your brand sharp
Most custom packing tape is made from BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene) — a strong, glossy film that takes crisp, colorful print and resists moisture and abrasion in transit. Kraft paper tape offers a natural, matte, recyclable alternative that reinforces a sustainability story, while filament-reinforced tape adds fiberglass strands for cartons that need extra holding power.
The adhesive matters as much as the film. Acrylic adhesives stay clear and stable across a wide temperature range and long storage; hot-melt adhesives give aggressive initial tack for fast, quiet sealing; and natural-rubber adhesives grip recycled and cold cartons well. Choose the material and adhesive that match where your boxes actually travel — a lightweight mailer and a heavy pallet-bound carton call for very different tape.

Tape backgrounds and finishes — and what they signal
Your print color pops differently depending on the tape background. Clear and white films are the most common canvases, kraft brown reads natural and premium, and bold colored films help color-code or grab attention. Common conventions:

How custom tape pricing works
Custom packing tape is priced per roll, and the per-roll price drops as your quantity climbs. Your final quote depends on four things: tape material, number of print colors, width and roll length, and total quantity. Larger runs and simpler artwork bring the unit cost down the most.
