The most common transparent tapes on the market are yellowish, light yellow, and white. White transparent tape is generally transparent and essentially colorless, while transparent yellow tape is transparent with a slight yellow tint. There's also an opaque beige version. Today, we'll mainly discuss which is stickier, transparent yellow or white tape? Which has a stronger bond and greater adhesion?
Transparent yellowish tape has a transparent appearance with a slight yellow tint. It can be made with or without bubbles. This is a common color in the tape industry. It primarily uses polypropylene film (BOPP) as the base material and can be coated in any color according to customer requirements. Then, pressure-sensitive adhesive is applied and dried to create a self-adhesive tape. This transparent tape has high tensile strength, is lightweight, non-toxic, odorless, environmentally friendly, and can prevent product leakage or damage during transportation. It is very suitable for general product packaging and various sealing applications.
Transparent yellow tape is reinforced with a round cardboard tube in the middle and is mainly used for sealing boxes, spraying, packaging, and fixing in the construction and decoration industries. It is also suitable for office and school use. Transparent yellow tape is made of high-quality adhesive and environmentally friendly OPP plastic. The tape has strong adhesion, is not easy to peel off after fixing, and has characteristics such as temperature resistance, solvent resistance, and no glue overflow.
As for whether transparent yellow tape or white transparent tape is better, there is no definitive answer. Strictly speaking, white is more environmentally friendly! However, it depends on the company's manufacturing process. Transparent yellow sealing tape is mainly OPP with more water-based adhesive, while white tape is mainly BOPP with more heat-resistant adhesive. Therefore, white tape is generally slightly more expensive.
