The Many Resourceful and Imaginative Uses of Colored Carton Sealing Tape

Posted by Jason Archambault on 3rd Apr 2014

The package sealing tapes that most of us are familiar with, typically used to seal cartons for shipping, moving and inventory management, come in the traditional transparent or brown colors. While anybody who has had a need for them appreciates what they can do, colored carton sealing tape has been proven to make a lot of tasks in the packaging industry a whole lot easier. Colored packing tape delivers all the benefits of its brown and transparent brothers, including holding power and adherence, but brightly colored options are real deal breakers when used as a labeling application, which make it easy for users to keep their cartons organized.

The Adhesive Power
High quality colored packing tapes have rubber resin adhesive (synthetic), providing the optimum flexibility when it comes to applications. Packaging tapes with synthetic adhesives bond to any surface they're applied to almost instantly; and it's a reliable adhesive so it's ideal for even medium to heavy weight storage boxes. In addition, our colored carton sealing tapes offer excellent performance and resilience even when exposed to UV rays and moisture. When you combine the durability of carton sealing tapes with the versatility of color, you have a winning combination.

Organizing Your Move
Colored packing tape is a favorite with the moving sector, simply because valuables can be easily identified, making the unpacking process a lot less stressful. These colorful tapes can the guess work out of organizing the items in your new home or office because, if you color code them, you'll know exactly what's in what box. You can also set it up in such a way that a particular color would indicate that the box contains certain items that go in a specific room.

Inventory Tracking
For organizational purposes in stores, warehouses, or the office, colored tape makes it easy to track inventory by color coding boxes, outbound pallets, shipments and more. Throughout the inventory management stages, you wouldn't have to closely read and examine contents after the original labeling. Warehousing would be more efficient as well because of product separation and organization. Colored packing tape can also designate dangerous or safe areas in warehouses, etc.

Organize Your Shipping
With colored carton sealing tape, you'll be able to set up an efficient labeling system, an easy way to organize your packages and prevent mistakes by keeping your packages color coded and visibly identified for shipping and delivery, making the process quicker as well because the cartons will be clearly marked (UPS 2nd Day with Blue; Fed Ex with Red; First class mail with Green, etc.).

Marketing Savvy Businesses
Any successful business owner understands the value of branding when it comes to promoting their businesses and you can carry the power of branding over to your shipments by using a colored packing tape that matches your business logo, a small detail that can still make a great impression at the receiving end.

Oh, and then there's Arts and Crafts
There are a lot of ways to get creative with colored carton sealing tape and while it's not on the top of our list when it comes to what our customer's use it for, it actually is an important and popular add on for people who are into remote control airplanes or RC airplanes because the colors add pizzazz and the tape itself adds strength.

Colored carton sealing tapes are the adhesive alternatives of the future and while they may have the same packaging power offered by their brown and transparent brethren, they offer a lot more in terms of versatility. Visit our Color Carton Sealing Tape Page for more information.
