Brown Packing Tape 50m

Brown packing tape is a roll of sticky tape in a plain brown colour, used to seal cardboard boxes and parcels. This 50m roll suits posting orders, packing for a house move and closing up storage boxes.

The brown colour matches ordinary cardboard, so sealed boxes look neat and plain. Many people like it for parcels because it looks like standard packing tape.

What to Use Brown Packing Tape For

Brown packing tape is mainly used to close the flaps of cardboard boxes before they are posted, moved or stored. It is also handy around the home and for small online sellers.

  • Sealing parcels for posting
  • Closing boxes when moving house
  • Packing up loft, garage or seasonal storage boxes
  • Fixing the base of a box before filling it
  • Packing orders for a small online shop or market stall

How to Seal a Box with Packing Tape

The most common way to seal a box is to tape along the centre seam where the two top flaps meet. Run the tape across the seam and down both sides of the box by a few centimetres.

For heavier boxes, add a strip of tape across each edge of the seam as well. This is often called an H-seal. Tape the bottom of the box the same way before you fill it.

Press the tape down firmly with your hand as you go. Tape sticks best to surfaces that are clean, dry and free from dust.

Is a 50m Roll the Right Length?

A 50m roll gives you plenty of tape for a house move or a regular run of parcels. If you only seal a box or two now and then, one roll will also last you a good while.

Brown Packing Tape FAQ

Is brown or clear packing tape better?

Neither is better, it depends on the look you want. Brown tape blends in with cardboard, while clear tape is less visible on white or printed boxes.

How much tape do I need to seal a box?

One strip along the centre seam and a little way down each side is enough for a light box. Heavier boxes are usually taped along the edges of the seam too.

Can I use packing tape for moving house?

Yes, packing tape is commonly used to close moving boxes and to tape up the base before packing. Tape the bottom and the top of each box so it stays shut while you carry it.

Add a roll of brown packing tape to your basket before the next parcel run, house move or tidy of the loft.

Disclaimer

We take great care when preparing and securely packing every order; however, during transportation, parcels may be handled by several parties, including the courier, and despite our best efforts, minor cosmetic damage such as dents, marks, scuffs or damage to external packaging may occasionally occur. Minor cosmetic damage that does not affect the product’s safety, quality or intended use will not normally be considered a product defect. This is particularly applicable to products supplied in cans, tins, plastic containers, boxes or similar packaging. If you receive a product that is broken, leaking, materially damaged, unsafe, unusable or otherwise not as described, please contact us within 24 Hours of delivery by email or telephone and provide your order number, details of the issue and clear photographs of the damaged product and packaging. We may require further information or evidence to investigate the matter and, where necessary, may take up to 14 days to complete our investigation. Where damage appears to have occurred during delivery, we may need to raise a claim with the courier, and you may be required to complete and return any Damage on Receipt (DOR) form or other documentation requested by the courier before the claim can be processed. Some products we sell are price-marked or display a manufacturer’s recommended or printed retail price. Please note that our online selling prices may differ from the price printed on the product because online orders involve additional costs such as picking, packing, packaging materials, warehouse handling, payment processing, website administration and delivery-related costs. You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect. Product images displayed on our website are for illustration and presentation purposes only. Actual product packaging, branding, design, colour, size, shape or appearance may vary depending on availability, manufacturer, batch or packaging updates. Such variations do not necessarily indicate that the product supplied is different from the product ordered, provided that the product itself corresponds to the description and specifications stated on the website. We ask customers to check their order and products as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and contact us promptly if there is any material damage, fault, incorrect item or issue with the goods.
