Branding is a critical element for business growth. By using water activated paper tape, a company is easily able to print its logo or a message in either full color or black and white directly after dispensing from the Ink Jet System. This keeps your brand front and center when your carton arrives at your customer’s home or office.This enhances the company's branding and their professional image. It is difficult and expensive to create printed plastic tape and if a company needs more than one strip of tape, it typically undermines the company’s branding efforts by appearing sloppy. By utilizing the Ink Jet System you'll be able to save money and simplify the process by printing your logo or message directly on the Kraft paper tape so it's the first element people see when receiving their package.
Unlike plastic, pressure-sensitive tape (PST) and hand-held tape guns, water-activated tape literally bonds to the carton. As a result, you only need one strip of tape to secure a corrugated carton. Plastic, pressure-sensitive tape floats on the carton surface. As a result, packers tend to use several strips of plastic tape to try to secure their cartons. While on a “per foot” basis, PST is often less expensive, because packers use so many strips of tape for closure, the cost advantage quickly disappears and ultimately WAT and the gum tape dispensers are less expensive, not to mention, more effective.
Ultimately, being able to print your logo on water activated tape from the Ink Jet System creates a great canvas for logos and messages in full color or black & white as it's simple to print on Kraft paper tape. Putting logos on your tape is an excellent branding vehicle and one which is potentially cost-saving too in comparison to having various-sized cartons printed with your logo. Printing your logo or message on your tape personalizes your shipments professionally and reflects well on your company building up your brand and gaining more customers.
