Custom tape


Custom tape provides a simple way to secure parcels while promoting your brand through everyday packaging. By adding your company name or logo to custom printed tape, you can make parcels instantly identifiable to customers while creating a consistent, professional finish. Printed tape is also a cost-effective way to strengthen brand recognition without changing the boxes or cartons you already use.

Custom tape is ideal for retailers, ecommerce businesses, manufacturers and other UK companies that regularly send products to customers. It’s particularly useful for businesses looking to strengthen their branding while keeping everyday packaging practical and professional.

At Kite Packaging, our custom tape range includes different widths and material options to suit a variety of packaging requirements. From custom printed packaging tape for everyday parcels to paper, vinyl and machine tape options, businesses can choose high quality tape that combines practical packaging with their own branding.

Why Choose Custom Printed Tape?

Custom printed tape combines the practical purpose of packaging tape with an opportunity to promote your brand. Adding your company name or logo to parcels can strengthen brand recognition and give everyday packaging a more professional finish.

Using branded tape can help businesses:

  • Showcase their brand on boxes and parcels
  • Make packages stand out and become easier for customers to identify
  • Create a consistent look across outgoing packaging
  • Identify packages more quickly during storage or transit
  • Highlight potential tampering or interference if the printed tape has been disturbed

Custom printed packing tape therefore provides a cost-effective way to combine secure packaging with brand promotion, turning a product already needed for sealing parcels into an additional marketing opportunity.

Create Custom Tape in Three Simple Steps

Kite’s online platform makes it simple to create custom tape for your packaging requirements. With different materials, widths and print options available, businesses can create printed tape featuring their own company branding.

The process can be completed in three main steps:

  1. Choose your tape: select the required width and suitable material from the custom tape range.
  2. Create your print: add your company name, logo or chosen design and select the required print colours. Custom tape can be printed in up to three colours.
  3. Review your design: check your tape, colours, logo and quantity before completing your order.

This simple process allows businesses to create custom printed tape that reflects their brand while providing practical packaging tape for sealing boxes, cartons and parcels.
