Packaging tape is a critical material in commercial packing, shipping and warehouse operations. It supports carton sealing, load stability and product protection throughout transport. In industrial settings such as e-commerce fulfilment, logistics, distribution centres and manufacturing, tape quality directly affects packaging performance and operational efficiency. McPack supplies industrial grade packaging tapes engineered for consistent adhesion, long lasting sealing strength and dependable roll performance for medium to heavy duty packaging tasks.
Packaging tape is applied in carton sealing, shipment preparation, pallet stabilisation and general warehouse activities. It must retain adhesion under vibration, stacking pressure and variable temperature conditions.
Appropriate tape selection prevents failures such as peeling adhesive, seam splits or carton opening during handling and transport. Reliable tape improves load integrity and reduces the risk of product damage.
Important factors include adhesive chemistry, film thickness, tape width, dispenser compatibility, environmental conditions and the carton material. Recycled cardboard often requires stronger adhesives.
Industrial tapes from McPack provide stronger bonding strength, true roll length, higher durability and consistent application performance. Retail tapes are generally designed for light duty use and lack the strength required for commercial operations.
Suitable for general carton sealing while keeping labels visible.
Preferred for kraft cartons, offering a uniform professional finish.
Manufactured with higher micron films and strong adhesives for heavy cartons and export packaging.
Designed for quieter operation in fulfilment centres and office packing areas.
Useful for high volume packing stations requiring rapid tape application.
Acrylic adhesive provides UV resistance and stable performance in warm environments.
Hot melt adhesive delivers strong initial tack suited for heavy loads and fast paced operations.
Natural rubber adhesive performs well on recycled cartons and in cold storage environments.
Available in various thicknesses and widths to support different carton weights and transportation demands.
Industrial adhesives maintain secure bonds during transport and handling.
High performance tapes remain stable in warm warehouses, humid environments and long distance freight.
Maintains seal integrity across extended shipping routes and varying handling conditions.
Consistent unwind reduces tearing and improves packing speed in high volume settings.
Stronger films and adhesives require fewer layers per carton, reducing overall consumption.
Works efficiently with handheld dispensers and automated sealing equipment.
Adhesive formulation, film micron rating, tape width, roll length and manufacturing quality influence the final cost.
Heavy duty tapes cost more but offer significantly increased durability and strength for heavy cartons.
Brown tape often bonds better with kraft cartons and may include pigment reinforcement.
Carton and pallet quantities provide substantial cost advantages.
McPack tapes offer stronger adhesion, longer roll lengths and more consistent performance than common office supply tapes.
Multi roll packs and pallet quantities reduce cost per metre, ideal for high consumption environments.
Provides reliable closure during handling, stacking and transport.
Used extensively in fulfilment centres for preparing daily orders.
Supports stock movement, shipment preparation and carton consolidation.
Suitable for archiving, document protection and internal logistics tasks.
Ensures consistent sealing in fast paced packaging environments.
Provide controlled tape application and efficient workflow.
Designed to reduce noise in busy work environments.
Enhance operator safety and durability in continuous operations.
Useful for scaling packing operations or setting up new workstations.
All McPack tapes fit standard 50 millimetre dispensers.
Adhesive choice must align with temperature conditions, carton surface and handling requirements.
Thicker films offer greater strength for heavy cartons and long duration freight.
Clear tape suits general use, while brown tape visually blends with kraft packaging.
Low noise variants are ideal for indoor or shared packing environments.
Bulk purchasing provides higher efficiency and cost savings for continuous operations.
Produces strong bonding strength for commercial workloads.
Maintains adhesion throughout storage and transport cycles.
Each roll is manufactured to strict specifications ensuring predictable performance.
Lower long term cost per sealed carton due to higher durability.
Stocked in Australia with rapid delivery across all states.
McPack supplies tapes, dispensers, stretch films and strapping products as a full service packaging provider.
