Packing Tape

Packing Tape for Irish Businesses and Homes

Packing tape is the standard consumable for sealing cardboard boxes, parcels, and packages - used across Irish offices, warehouses, dispatch departments, retail operations, and homes. HuntOffice stocks packing tape from HuntOffice own-brand, 5 Star, Scotch, Sellotape, Q-Connect, GoSecure, Stik-Ie, Umax, Gorilla, and Concept Green, in plain, low noise, heavy duty, reinforced, vinyl, and paper tape formats, in buff, clear, brown, white, black, and blue, across widths from 24mm to 70mm and roll lengths from 22m to 200m. Pack sizes range from single rolls through to packs of 72 for high-volume operations. Six products carry an eco-friendly designation. Fast nationwide delivery is available across all of Ireland on every order.

Polypropylene Packing Tape - Plain and Low Noise

Polypropylene packing tape is the standard format for sealing cardboard boxes - a pressure-sensitive adhesive on a clear or brown polypropylene film backing that bonds firmly to cardboard on contact. The most widely used formats in Irish offices and warehouses are 48mm and 50mm wide, 66m rolls, in packs of 6. 5 Star polypropylene packing tape (48mm x 66m, buff, pack of 6) is the top-selling product in the range. Q-Connect polypropylene packaging tape is available in both clear (50mm x 66m, pack of 6) and brown (50mm x 66m, pack of 6). GoSecure packaging tape covers the same formats in clear and buff. Low noise polypropylene tape is formulated to unroll quietly - the standard tape produces a loud tearing sound when pulled from the roll, which is disruptive in shared workspaces and open-plan offices. 5 Star low noise tape (48mm x 66m, buff and clear, pack of 6) and Q-Connect low noise tape (50mm x 66m, buff and clear, pack of 6) are the main low noise options.

Sellotape and Scotch Packing Tape

Sellotape SuperSeal packing tape is available in clear (50mm x 66m, pack of 6), buff (50mm x 66m, pack of 6), and brown (48mm x 50m, packs of 3 and 8) - one of the most widely recognised tape brands in Ireland and well suited to organisations that specify Sellotape by brand. Scotch packing tape from 3M covers both standard and heavy duty formats: Scotch Box Lock packing tape (3in core, pack of 3) uses a textured surface that grips box flaps securely with less tape needed per seal; Scotch heavy duty packaging tape (50mm x 66m, clear, pack of 3 and 6) and Scotch heavy duty packaging tape brown (50mm x 66m, pack of 6) provide a premium high-adhesion option suited to heavier boxes and long-distance shipping. Scotch general purpose low noise tape (48mm x 66m, brown and clear) provides a branded low noise option for quieter working environments.

Heavy Duty and Reinforced Packing Tape

Heavy duty packing tape provides higher adhesion and tear resistance than standard polypropylene tape - suited to heavier boxes, damp conditions, outdoor storage, and any application where a standard tape would lift or fail. Gorilla Tape (48mm x 11m, black) is the highest-strength option in the range - a double-thick adhesive that bonds to cardboard, wood, metal, glass, and plastic and resists pulling under load. Crossweave filament reinforced packing tape (50mm x 50m, pack of 18) embeds glass fibre filaments in the tape substrate - providing tear resistance in both directions suited to strapping, bundling, and securing loads. Reinforced packing tapes (25mm wide, pack of 36) and Stik-Ie reinforced gummed tape (50mm x 36m) cover narrower reinforced formats for lighter securing applications.

Umax High-Volume Packing Tape

Umax polypropylene packing tape is available in 48mm x 150m rolls in buff and clear - both noisy and low noise variants - providing 150 metres per roll rather than the standard 66 metres, significantly reducing roll changeover frequency on high-volume packing lines. Umax tape is suited to Irish businesses processing large numbers of boxes daily where stopping to change tape rolls costs time and disrupts throughput. Bulk cases of Umax tape in multiple roll formats are available for operations that need a continuous tape supply without regular reordering.

Paper and Vinyl Packing Tape

Paper packing tape is a recyclable alternative to polypropylene tape suited to organisations with eco-packaging commitments. Scotch Box Lock paper packing tape (48mm x 22.8m) interlocks with the cardboard box surface rather than relying solely on adhesive, providing a secure seal that is fully recyclable. Concept Green brown kraft paper tape (48mm x 50m) is a fully eco-friendly single-roll paper tape option. Gummed paper tape (48mm wide, white, standard format) and K60 paper tape (70mm x 200m, case of 16 rolls) are available for water-activated gummed sealing applications where a particularly strong tamper-evident bond is required. Vinyl tape in 24mm white (bulk pack of 72) and 48mm blue (pack of 6) provides a more flexible, conforming tape format suited to irregular surfaces, colour-coded marking, and applications where polypropylene tape's rigidity would cause it to lift.
