Packaging tape available from SR Mailing includes plastic tape, recycled Kraft paper tape with a natural rubber adhesive, and our flagship water activated gummed paper tape. Each type is readily available in a range of sizes. The gummed tape can be dispensed with a pull and tear, handheld or auto dispenser, which we also stock and supply. Each type of tape boasts strong adhesion and can be customised with messages and branding to enhance your package's appearance.

Absolutely. We have several tape options for heavy parcels or fragile items. We recommend choosing our reinforced gummed tape to support parcels and packaging containing heavy items, and you can have tape printed with ‘fragile’ or other messages to support specific handling and shipping requirements. We also stock a range of eco-friendly void fillers to help protect even the most delicate of items. 

If you’re looking for eco-friendly tapes, SR Mailing is here to help. We supply our Kraft paper and water activated paper tape, which are both 100% recyclable and compostable. They use chemical-free adhesives, including natural rubber and potato starch, that don’t pose a threat to the environment and give customers confidence in recycling and sustainable waste management. 

No one tape is better, but paper tape is the ideal choice for those looking for a sustainable solution to their packaging. Paper tape is recyclable and helps to make packages tamper evident. Paper tape also allows you to display messages to promote branding or provide instructions and can perform better in varying temperatures. Plastic tape is extremely durable and suitable heavy-duty packaging. Plastic tape is also slightly more UV resistant and has the benefit of being water-resistant. Consider your packaging requirements to make an informed choice.
