Tape for wrapping, packing and everyday fixes

Tape is one of those things you only notice when it's gone: halfway through wrapping a birthday present, or with a box open on the floor and nothing to seal it. Our range has clear sticky tape, double-sided tape, packing tape and handy dispensers, all at low prices you'll love, so there's always a roll in the drawer when you need it.

Sticky tape for everyday jobs

Clear sticky tape is the one that gets used for everything. It patches a torn page in a school reader, holds a note to the fridge and finishes off a present. Tearable rolls come away by hand, which helps when you're holding a gift in the other one. Keep a dispenser on the desk and a pack of refills in the drawer, then pop a pair of scissors beside it for jobs that need a neat cut.

Double-sided tape for gift wrap and school projects

Double-sided tape keeps the sticky side out of sight, so wrapped presents look neat with no tape lines showing. It's a handy one to have in the cupboard with Christmas coming, alongside a few rolls of wrapping paper and gift wrap. It's just as useful on a rainy school holiday afternoon, when the kids want to stick photos onto a poster or hang paper decorations. Browse our craft supplies to round out the project box.

Packing tape for boxes and parcels

Packing tape comes into its own on moving weekends, garage clear-outs and parcels you're posting to keep them wrapped tighly. Our range includes multipacks, printed tapes, low noise rolls and tape gun dispensers, so you can seal a stack of storage boxes in one go. Stick a label on each box as you go and you'll know exactly where the kettle ended up when it's time to unpack.

Tape FAQs

What's the difference between sticky tape and packing tape?

Sticky tape is thinner and suits wrapping, paper jobs and everyday fixes around the house. Packing tape is wider and thicker, made for sealing boxes and parcels. Check the width and length on each product page to match the roll to the job.

What tape should I use to wrap presents?

Double-sided tape is a good pick if you'd like a neat finish with no tape lines showing. Clear tearable tape is handy for quick wrapping when you've got a pile of gifts to get through before the party.

Do I need a tape dispenser?

It's not essential, but a dispenser means you can tear off a length one-handed and always know where the roll is. Tape gun dispensers suit packing tape, so check the product page to make sure the roll size matches.

How do I seal a box with packing tape?

Fold the flaps in, then run the tape along the centre seam and a few centimetres down each side. Tape the bottom of the box before you start filling it, and you're ready to pack.
