Machine Tape

To make packaging super efficient on a larger scale, you’ll no doubt be looking at automatic packaging practices; that’s where machine tape comes in. It’s something we’re proud to stock here at Challenge Packaging; here’s everything you need to know about our machine tape.

What is machine tape? 

Machine tape is durable plastic tape, which is usually longer than conventional tapes that you secure goods with by hand. It’s designed to be used in conjunction with automatic taping machines, which makes it perfect for securing a large amount of boxes in a super quick time. 

Why use machine tape? 

Machine tape can be applied much faster than other tape, which has to be applied manually. This means increased productivity, and, ultimately, faster delivery times. The chance of human error is reduced with the use of machine tape, as automatic taping machines can apply tape accurately every time. 

How should you use machine tape? 

Used in an automatic taping machine, machine tape can be used on a range of surfaces, which includes paper, board, plastic and cardboard.
