Adding Safety Messages and Handling Instructions to Custom Tape
Print safety messages and handling instructions directly on your packaging tape.
Why print safety messages on tape
Custom tape with safety messages serves a dual purpose: branding and functional communication. Messages like "FRAGILE," "THIS WAY UP," and "HEAVY" printed on tape are more visible and consistent than separate labels, which can peel off or be missed during handling.
Quick answer
Print FRAGILE, THIS WAY UP, HEAVY, or DO NOT STACK directly on your custom tape alongside your logo. The message appears on every face of the parcel wherever tape is applied. This is more visible and durable than separate labels. Combine your brand colours with high-contrast warning text for maximum impact. Red or orange text on white or kraft tape is the most attention-grabbing combination.
