Custom tape and OEM manufacturing
Send us a logo, a size or a job to be done. We work back to a tape specification and quote it.
Custom is the normal case, not a special project
Most orders that leave this factory are not standard items. They are tapes with a width, a colour, an adhesive or a printed design chosen by the customer, which is why the design, coating, printing and slitting steps all sit inside the same company.
A custom order usually starts with something imprecise: a photo of a roll, a description of what the tape has to hold, or a competitor's sample. Our job is to turn that into a written specification, quote it, and then prove it with a sample before the bulk run.
- Width, thickness, length, colour and adhesive all adjustable
- Free artwork redrawing from a logo, photo or sketch
- Cylinder engraving in house, retained for future reorders
- Digital proof before production, physical sample on request
- Neutral packing available for distributors and own-brand sellers
Six dimensions of customisation
Any combination of these can be specified on one order, and different items can share a single shipment.
Printing and artwork
Up to six colours, your logo, product name, barcode, handling symbols or a full-coverage design. We redraw the artwork and engrave the cylinder.
Width and thickness
Film is slit to the width you need, and total thickness is selected together with the adhesive so the tape behaves correctly on your dispenser.
Colour
Match a supplied colour reference, or choose from the standard colour range. The colour record stays on file so reorders match.
Adhesive
Water-based acrylic for everyday sealing, hot-melt for higher initial tack, rubber-based for conformability, or a specialist adhesive for a difficult surface.
Construction
BOPP, kraft paper, PVC, film, foam, foil or glass-fibre-reinforced, depending on what the tape has to do.
Packing and labelling
Shrink wrap, carton, pallet or display pack. Neutral cartons and customer labels if the goods are being sold on under your own brand.
Six steps from enquiry to reorder
The process is designed so that nothing is produced in bulk until you have seen what you are buying.
Enquiry
Send the tape type, size, colour, printing, quantity and destination port. A photo or sample shortens this stage considerably.
Specification and quotation
We write down a specification, price it and give a lead time. If a cheaper or more suitable construction exists, we will say so.
Artwork and proofing
For printed tape, our designers redraw the artwork and send a digital proof. Nothing is engraved until you approve it.
Sampling
A pre-production sample lets you test the adhesion, the colour and the print on your own cartons before committing to the bulk order.
Bulk production and inspection
Coating, printing, slitting and packing run in sequence with in-line checks, then the finished goods are inspected and packed.
Shipment and reorder
We handle the export documents and shipping. Cylinders and colour records stay on file, so a reorder is a repeat rather than a new project.
Order size, timing and paperwork
Order size
Minimum quantities depend on the tape and the printing, and are negotiable for a first order. Mixed designs, widths and colours can be combined in one container.
Lead time
Lead time is quoted per order and counts from artwork approval for printed tape. Stock items usually move faster than a new custom design.
Documents
We hold a foreign trade operator registration and prepare the commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and any inspection documents the destination requires.
