Seal packages securely

The best and most secure packaging tapes are reinforced with continuous glass yarns across length and width for added strength.

Packaging Tape

Packing tape is normally sold by the package or case and is measured in length and width.

Sealing Your Package

Tape all seams securely end-to-end with one of these kinds of tape:

Pressure-sensitive packaging tape, minimum 2" width
Water-activated paper tape, 60-lb. grade, minimum 3" width
Water-activated reinforced packing tape

See www.Fedex.com for more information on how to tape your packages.

Tape Dispensers

Tape dispensers used for box taping should be able to dispense at least 2" to 3" thick tape. Make sure the dispenser is sturdy enough to do the job right. A handheld one-hand tape dispenser is recommended.
