Ideal for low-volume or variable-sized operations. ### Machine Applied Tape High-performance tapes engineered for automated dispensers, offering consistent application, faster throughput, and reduced labor in high-volume packaging lines. ### Acrylic Packaging Tape Economical and UV-resistant tape ideal for long-term storage and moderate temperatures. Great for general-purpose carton sealing. ### Rubber/Hotmelt Adhesive Tape Offers excellent initial tack and strong adhesion to irregular surfaces. Ideal for recycled cartons or dusty environments. ### Solvent-Based Packaging Tape Durable and moisture-resistant, suited for cold storage or humid conditions. Excellent for heavy-duty sealing. ### Water-Activated Tape (Gummed Tape) Paper-based adhesive that bonds when wet, providing a secure, tamper-evident seal. Popular in e-commerce and eco-conscious packaging. ### Low-Noise Packaging Tape Designed for quiet unwinding, making it perfect for indoor packing stations and fulfillment centers. ### Double-Sided Tape Adhesive on both sides for bonding materials without visible fasteners. Common in assembly, signage, and electronics. ### Filament Tape Reinforced with fiberglass strands for added strength. Commonly used for bundling, palletizing, and reinforcing heavy packages. ## The Process ### Connect Connect with one of our experts to help us understand your current tape formulation.  ### Match the Right Tape Let our tape experts match you to the exact tape formulation and size that you need.  ### Test for FREE We will send you a free sample to test and ensure it works as expected.  ![label manufacturing](https://consolidatedprintingsupplies.com/hs-fs/hubfs/label%20manufacturing.jpg?width=540&height=360&name=label%20manufacturing.jpg) ## Industries Served We have customers across the world in every industry, providing customized solutions that cater to the distinct needs of each sector.    C [Explore Industries](https://consolidatedprintingsupplies.com/industries-served?hsLang=en) ![heavy box breaking tape](https://consolidatedprintingsupplies.com/hs-fs/hubfs/heavy%20box%20breaking%20tape.png?width=1024&height=1024&name=heavy%20box%20breaking%20tape.png) ## Real Case Studies Serving Customers since 1992, CPS has a long history of finding unique solutions to problems faced by customers.  [Explore Case Studies](https://consolidatedprintingsupplies.com/success-stories?hsLang=en) #### Ready to Find the Perfect Tape?
