A question that we often get is:

Can I print on any type of tape?

The short answer is no with an asterisk. The reason being regular tapes are not treated on the surface to absorb the inks that we print with. However, it is possible to corona treat the tape but at the expense of losing quality.

Hi everyone. Ricky Chu from Chu’s, Packaging Supplies here.

The question we get asked a lot is whether or not we can just print on any type of tape. If you had a case of our super tape, and you want us to put your logo on it, can do it?

The short answer is no with an asterisk. Like I can’t just put a roll of our tape on to our machine and expect to print it without any issues.

The reason being regular tapes are not treated on the surface to absorb the inks that we print with.

So if I use a marker on this roll of super tape. It would just wipe off like a dry erase board Another option is can print on a regular tape and corona treat it, but that process is very costly and the quality doesn’t come out that nice.

So if you’re looking for custom printed tape with your logo, we have a full stock of both hot melt and acrylic poly tapes that are printable that’ll come out really, really nice. For more information on custom printed tapes, please visit our website at www.chuspkg.com
