BOX TAPE

THIS PACKING TAPE WAS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR A SUCH A SMALL ROLL OF TAPE. I WAS NOT HAPPY. I CAN PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT ELSEWHERE FOR 1/2 THE PRICE AND RECEIVE A MUCH LARGER ROLL. I NEEDED TO BUY 1 ROLL FROM STAPLES TO GET ME BY UNTIL MY STOCK ORDER FROM ANOTHER COMPANY CAME IN. AS AN FYI I LIKE GETTING REWARDS POINTS BUT STAPLES OFTEN MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR SMALL COMPANIES TO BUY AN ITEM LIKE THIS AS WELL AS SIMILAR ITEMS. WE HAVE A COMPANY STAPLES CREDIT CARD BUT WE STILL SEEM TO PAY THE STANDARD RETAIL PRICE. I WISH STAPLE HAD A PROGRAM TO PROVIDE SMALL BUSINESS WITH BETTER DISCOUNTS. THE REWARDS POINTS PROGRAM IS JUST OK. .
This tape works great. Although it requires a small amount if water to wet the surface it is worthy. Once you glue the tape to the box it took only few seconds to dry. I really recommend this product to other customers.
I was using this for construction of props from cardboard and it works better than the usual strapping tape and takes paint better too. It holds more tightly than I expected and is pretty tough. I have since used it for heavy packing.My only real complaint is that I would probably use it a whole lot more (and rate it higher) except that it's kind of expensive.
I use this tape for heavy packages and for packages shipping registered USPS mail - it is not easy to find! You get a large roll and it adheres great with just a little bit of moisture. Thanks all good.
This tape is very durable for shipping because it is reinforced with fiber it iwll not peel and tear. I have been using it for years to send packages overseas.
we sell a lot of items overseas and we always ship first class/ registered so we use this tape a lot and Staples is the only place I have found that sells it. You need to put this tape on all edges of the package so we use a lot of it. Would be lost without it-
We had many boxes packed and had used regular clear packaging tape but before long the tape started pulling off the boxes. We bought Staples Standard Grade Paper Packaging Tape to redo our boxes and it is great!
