Width is the measure of the tape from one side of the roll to the other. Wide rolls make excellent packing tape because they cover more surface area. They are usually sturdier than narrow tape rolls. If you need tape for packaging or covering something up, choose the tape that provides the most surface contact with the material that you are taping up. This is especially important because post offices will note if your adhesive is insufficient. Moreover, if your packaging falls apart during transit, the shipping service may be unable to ship it.
- In industrial settings, reflective floor marking tape is commonly used to demarcate walkways, designate safety zones, mark storage locations, and indicate emergency exits. Its durability is another key feature, withstanding heavy foot traffic, forklift impacts, and exposure to chemicals, making it ideal for high-traffic areas. Moreover, its adhesive backing ensures a strong, long-lasting bond to various surfaces, including concrete, metal, and wood.
