  • Floor Marking Tape & Line Marking Tape

    Floor tape is used in a multitude of settings to improve safety and ensure that large areas are zoned appropriately. Without clear and easy to understand markings almost any workplace will descend into chaos.

    Our self-adhesive tape is colour coded allowing you to “zone” areas, and ensure that a uniform colour coding system is adopted sitewide. The Adhesives used on our tape are of an industrial quality and designed for use in all manner of heavy duty environments.

    Many of our line marking tapes are stock items, which means you can get them as fast as the next day! Perfect for the last minute jobs to ensure your work area is up to specification for a health and safety inspection.

    Where Is Floor Marking Tape Used?

    You will find floor tape almost everywhere, this is because it is exceptionally easy to apply and is highly visible. Some examples of where it can be used are as follows;

    • Theme Parks - Anti-Slip floor tape can be installed on stairways and at platform edges to improve traction.
    • Factories - Safety areas around machines can be marked out ensuring workers do not get to close.
    • Warehouses - During busy seasons such as Christmas extra storage areas may need to be marked out in dispatch areas.
    • Loading Bays - Our forklift tape can be applied around the area to ensure that pedestrians do not walk into a hazardous zone.
    • Hospitals - Line tapes are used in many roles in hospitals, a common example is a continuous marking that patients can follow to get to the right department. E.g. “follow the green line for x-rays”
    • Supermarkets - Our Proline Tape may be used to mark out an area where a temporary seasonal stand is placed. It may also be used to mark where the extra seasonal stock should be stored in the back warehouse.

    These are just a few examples of how different businesses within the commercial and private sectors make use of line marking tapes.

    How Is Floor Marking Tape Applied?

    Floor marking tapes are very easy to apply, we even supply a couple of accessories to make the job even easier if doing larger jobs.

    The most important thing when applying any finish is ensuring that the surface is dry, clean from dust, dirt and oil. With these substances removed the adhesive has the best chance of achieving a strong bond.

    To get a consistent and bubble free run we have a special trolley that can be used to apply our line marking tape. The TapeLiner is a walk behind trolley that allows long runs to be applied at walking pace.

    How Do I Ensure I Get A Straight Line?

    When applying long runs we recommend using a chalk line marker, this will ensure that the markings produced are straight and true.

    Some of our non-slip tapes can be applied to chequered plate surfaces, for these you will need to use a pressure roller. We have these available on the shelf to make installation easy.

    Our Floor tapes are available in a range of colours, although the colour you use is entirely your choice, there is a “standard” colour scheme available. Each colour has its own designated meaning. By adhering to a set scheme throughout your site you will ensure a consistent message is conveyed.

    The accompanying Table shows where each colour should be used.

    Why Tape Not Paint?

    Where paint is better:

    • Outdoor Applications - Paint is normally the prefered method of outdoor marking. It is better able to cope with uneven surfaces and changes in temperature.
    • Permanent applications - Paint can be touched in where tape cannot be. To repair tape you need to cut out sections and replace them.

    Where Tape is better:

    • Where markings need to be temporary - the tape can simply be removed when you no longer need the markings.
    • Traction Improvement - Use non-slip tape on staircases to improve slip resistance.
    • Where it is not possible to use paint - There is no drying time with most tapes and no mess or overspray.
