Tape is one of the most commonly used tools due to its essential functions. It is invaluable for sealing packages to ensure goods arrive safely at their destination. In addition, tape is widely used to bond various items, such as wrapping gifts, repairing torn paper, and many other purposes. One type of tape commonly used for packaging and bonding everyday items is stationery tape. To better understand stationery tape, read the explanation below.

What Is Stationery Tape?

Stationery tape is a type of tape commonly found in offices for general purposes. It is also known as clear tape or cellophane tape. Stationery tape is used to repair torn paper, assemble paper projects and posters, seal envelopes, and for arts and crafts.

Types of Stationery Tape

Stationery tape can be classified into several types based on selling method, width, and finishing. See the details below.

1. Based on Selling Method
Stationery tape is sold in several ways. First, it is available in disposable dispensers that cannot be refilled. Second, it can be sold in roll form for use with permanent refillable dispensers, which are typically purchased separately. These dispensers are equipped with a core where the tape roll is mounted, and some include a blade for cutting the tape.

2. Based on Width
Stationery tape comes in various widths. The most common include 1/2 inch (12.7 mm), 3/4 inch (approximately 19 mm), and 1 inch (approximately 25 mm). The tape is mounted on a core with a diameter of either 1 inch or 3 inches (approximately 2.5 cm or 7.6 cm). When purchasing tape for a permanent dispenser, ensure that the core size and width match for proper function.

Stationery tape may also be sold as pre-cut strips, dispensed individually from specially designed refillable dispensers. The strips typically measure 3/4 inch by 2 inches (approximately 19 mm by 51 mm). This format may be safer for children, as standard tape dispenser blades can pose a hazard, and it also helps reduce tape waste.

3. Based on Finishing
There are three common finishes for stationery tape: transparent, translucent, and matte.
Transparent: Clear and glossy, forming a permanent bond. Translucent: Lower-cost tape tends to be translucent and glossy rather than fully clear, and may yellow over time. Matte: Nearly invisible when applied to paper and does not appear on photocopies. It forms a permanent bond and can be written on with pens, pencils, or markers.

Another type is removable matte-finish tape, which does not create a permanent bond. This makes it ideal for works in progress, whether for business or artistic projects, when placement is not yet final.
