How to Store and Apply Custom Tape for Long-Lasting Performance
Store and apply custom tape correctly for the best performance on every parcel.
Storage best practices
Quick answer
Store in a cool (15-25C), dry environment, in original packaging, away from sunlight. Heat softens adhesive, reducing bond strength. UV fades print and degrades the film. Dust and moisture on the adhesive surface reduce sticking. Apply with consistent pressure using a dispenser for even tension. Ensure the box surface is clean and dry for best adhesion.
