Packaging buying guides
Use these checks to narrow your options, then confirm the specifications and ordering details on the individual product page. Product features and information vary by item. If a required detail is missing or you are unsure about a match, contact our team before ordering.
Packing tape
The tape listings identify width, roll length, adhesive, colour and, where supplied, core diameter. Use the product details to confirm the item matches your packaging process and dispenser.
Before ordering
- Check the required tape width and roll length for your application and dispenser.
- Review the adhesive description against the carton surface, storage conditions and application. The listing identifies an adhesive type; it does not guarantee suitability for every surface or condition.
- Check colour and listed core diameter, then confirm the core fits your dispenser.
- Review the first displayed price quantity and any order multiple shown on the product card.
Stretch film
Listings distinguish hand and machine use and identify cast or blown film. Product details may also include width, thickness, roll length and core diameter.
Before ordering
- Confirm whether the product is listed for hand or machine use.
- Compare the cast or blown type and the listed dimensions with your application and equipment specification.
- Check the core diameter and roll dimensions against your wrapper. Descriptions vary, so use the individual product page for the exact item.
- Review the first displayed price quantity and any order multiple before placing an order.
Strapping
The category includes polypropylene, polyester and steel products. Individual pages show the dimensions and other specifications supplied for that line, which can include breaking strain and coil or core details.
Before ordering
- Start with the listed material, then compare width, thickness and coil length.
- Where a breaking strain is shown, check its value and units against your packaging specification and equipment guidance.
- Check any listed coil or core dimensions against the dispenser. Do not assume another material or grade will be interchangeable.
- Review the first displayed price quantity and any order multiple before placing an order.
