SKD Tapes

Choosing an adhesive tape involves more than finding a product that sticks to a surface. Businesses may also need to consider how materials are sourced, how much waste is produced during use and whether the tape can be supplied in a format that suits their process. SKD Tapes supplies technical self-adhesive tapes and converts materials to meet individual requirements. The company explains that sourcing and stocking a broad selection of raw materials, then converting them to order, helps it respond to customer needs while keeping its carbon footprint to a minimum. Why Tape Selection Matters The most suitable adhesive tape depends on the job it needs to perform. A tape that is poorly matched to its application may require replacement or create unnecessary material waste. Selecting the right specification from the beginning can help businesses avoid these problems. Factors such as the surface, bonding requirements, dimensions and working environment should all be considered. SKD T...

Adhesive tape is available in many different materials, thicknesses and adhesive types. However, a standard roll is not always the most practical format for a particular job. tape converting helps bridge this gap by turning adhesive materials into sizes, shapes and formats suited to specific applications. SKD Tapes specialises in converting technical self-adhesive tapes for customers across a range of industries. Its services include slitting, rewinding, die-cutting, spooling and printing, allowing materials to be prepared for different production and application requirements. What Does Tape Converting Involve? Tape converting covers several processes, each serving a different purpose. Slitting reduces a wider roll of tape into narrower widths. This is useful when a customer needs a specific tape width for an installation or production process. Rewinding transfers tape onto a roll in a required format. It can help prepare materials for handling, storage or further processing...

When products, equipment or packaging need to be protected from unauthorised access, custom void labels can provide a clear visual indication of interference. These labels are designed to reveal a hidden message when someone attempts to remove them, helping businesses identify whether a seal has been disturbed. SKD Tapes supplies a range of tamper-evident security labels and void label materials. Options include no-residue, partial-residue and DuploSeal materials, each offering a different way to show evidence of tampering. The most suitable choice depends on the surface being labelled and the type of security required. Choosing the Right Void Label Not every application requires the same type of label. No-residue void labels reveal evidence of removal within the label itself, without leaving adhesive residue on the surface underneath. This can be useful when labels are applied to equipment, cabinets, electronics or reusable packaging that needs to remain clean. DuploSeal labe...
