Packaging Tape & Dispensers

When it comes to sealing cartons and preparing goods for shipment, having the right packaging tape and dispensers is essential. Whether you’re running a busy warehouse, fulfilling online orders, or simply boxing up items for transport, reliable tape and easy-to-use dispensers save time and ensure everything stays secure.

At Pack King, we’ve been supplying Australian businesses with quality packaging materials since 1989. With over 30 years of hands-on experience in the industry, we understand what makes tape and dispenser systems efficient, durable, and practical. Our product range is tailored to suit every packaging setup, from small operations to high-volume dispatch lines.

Your Reliable Source for Packaging Tape & Dispensers

Our packaging tape and dispensers range includes a wide variety of options suited to general and specialised packing requirements:

• Acrylic Carton Sealing Tape – Ideal for standard warehouse and office use. Offers strong adhesion on cardboard and paper-based materials.
  
  
• Hot Melt Tape – Excellent for high-speed packaging lines. Delivers superior tack and quick adhesion.
  
  
• Rubber-Based Tape – Great for colder environments or difficult surfaces. Maintains hold in fluctuating temperatures.
  
  
• Printed Tape – Custom messaging, such as “Fragile” or “Handle with Care”, helps reduce damage in transit and reinforces handling instructions.
  
  
• Paper & Kraft Tape – An eco-friendly alternative that offers good adhesion and recyclability.
  
  

All of our tape options are available in various widths (commonly 48mm and 72mm), roll lengths, and adhesive strengths. Bulk orders are welcome and attract competitive pricing.

Tape Dispensers

To complement our tape rolls, we supply durable, user-friendly tape dispensers:

• Handheld Tape Guns – Ergonomic design for fast manual application. Suited to standard 75mm core rolls.
  
  
• Heavy-Duty Metal Dispensers – Built for higher-volume operations. Long-lasting and built to withstand daily use.
  
  
• Bench-Mount Dispensers – Ideal for repetitive sealing tasks in packing stations.
  
  
• Water-Activated Tape Dispensers – For gummed paper tape applications where enhanced carton sealing strength is required.
  
  

Whether you’re packing dozens or thousands of parcels daily, we can help match the right dispenser to your workflow and budget.

Secondary Offering: Machine Tape & Automated Solutions

For high-output environments, we also stock machine tapes designed for automatic case sealers. These tapes are engineered for smooth unwinding and excellent tack in fast-paced operations. If you’re using case sealing equipment or considering an upgrade, talk to us about compatibility and supply continuity.

Acrylic BOPP (Bi-axially Oriented Polypropylene)

Comes in 48 mm wide x 75 Mtr long rolls. 6 per pack (minimum order).

It is clear and has an aggressive gripping agent to ensure it sticks to poor surfaces. Surfaces with dust on them need to be wiped over first.

Packaging tape is your first line of defence against theft. It also prevents the item/s in the carton from falling out.

Used in conjunction with our Pistol Grip Tape Dispenser, the tape is laid on quickly and cut easily after use, using the serrated leading edge. Simply by swiping the flexible applicator to the carton, the tape is fed out.

By tightening the tension brake in the centre of the roll holder, the tape is partially braked, this prevents ‘tape runaway’.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of packaging tape is best for general carton sealing?
A: Acrylic packing tape is most commonly used for general-purpose carton sealing. It provides clear adhesion, good shelf life, and works well in room temperature environments.

Q: Do you stock heavy-duty tape for cold or damp conditions?
A: Yes. Our rubber-based adhesives perform better in cold rooms, refrigerated warehouses, or damp surfaces where standard tapes might lift.

Q: Can I use your tapes in an automatic case sealer?
A: Absolutely. We stock machine-grade tapes that unwind consistently and bond quickly, perfect for automated packaging lines.

Q: What sizes of packaging tape do you offer?
A: Our most popular widths are 48mm and 72mm, but we can also supply narrower or wider rolls on request. Roll lengths typically range from 66m to 1000m for machine tape.

Q: Do you supply dispensers that fit your tape rolls?
A: Yes. Our handheld and bench dispensers are designed to accommodate standard roll sizes and core diameters used across our tape range.

Q: Do you offer printed or custom-branded tape?
A: Yes. We offer printed tapes for messaging like “Fragile” or “Security Seal,” and can also supply custom-branded options for businesses placing bulk orders.

Q: What’s the difference between hot melt and acrylic tape?
A: Hot melt tape provides faster, stronger adhesion and is preferred for high-speed or high-volume environments. Acrylic tape is more affordable and ideal for standard use.

Q: Are paper-based tapes strong enough for sealing cartons?
A: Yes. Gummed paper tape and kraft tape can be very strong, especially when used with water-activated adhesives. They’re also recyclable, making them a greener choice.

Q: Can I try different tapes before committing to a large order?
A: Definitely. We encourage businesses to trial small quantities or samples before scaling up their order. Just give us a call to discuss.
