How sticky is your Tape?
Tape. It is a thing. And it is a thing we use to adhere almost everything to everything else. In a gummy world with sticky situations, it’s entirely necessary to know what tape you’re using and why you’re using. We intend to ensure that you’re using the most proper and best tape in every situation.
Tape has become a staple around the office, for obvious reasons. Each situation in the business sector demands a different type of tape, a kind of tape that best suits your purpose. Packaging tape, for example, has many utilities. It can be used to close boxes of products you intend to send to a client. It can also be used to get rid of your cubicle mate’s cell phone with the annoying ring tone by packing it up and shipping it overseas. In addition, packing tape can be used to store things, from important files and documents to those creepy porcelain figures you, for some reason, once brought to work with you as a decoration. Packing tape comes in many varieties, including “buff tape’, “tear-by-hand”, and “low-noise” (not to worry, regular to high-noise varieties are still available if you enjoying disrupting those around you.)
Printed tape, while less common in general business practices, is of equal use. Tapes with phrases like “hazard” or “quarantine” can be used to seal off your desk, finally getting Todd from accounting to leave you alone. These printed tapes also make fantastic decorations at office Christmas parties and other social gatherings. Lane marking tape, while less intimidating, can be used to designate specific areas in the office, such as “quiet spaces” or “cookie-free zones”.
Double-sided tape is a great resource in the office, be it to affix one’s cleavage to one’s shirt or simply to hang up posters, memos, and other objects that need to be hung at eye-level. The added bonus here is that double-sided tape can be reused often, allowing one strip of adhesive to hang up infamous numbers of vaguely motivational posters.
Masking tape is a multi-purpose tape that can help as a substitute in less abundant tape scenarios. It can be rolled into a ball to take the place of double-sided tape. It can be wrapped around a box several hundred times until it almost works as well as packing tape. Or it can be used in place of a ruler to draw somewhat straight lines between things.
The most multi-faceted of the tapes, though, is the clear scotch tape. Scotch tape or sellotape has the incredible ability to reunite once parted things. Be it a ripped paper or a large pack of floppy disks you are never going to use again, there is no end to the utility of clear tape.
For legal purposes, we are not allowed to list any more possibilities of the uses of duct tape, spray-on tape, or the aforementioned tape types. People may get injured and then this would be incriminating. What we can say is that tape is one of the most durable and utilitarian adhesive products on the market. Consider sticky tape for all your sticking needs.
Love your office.
