Versatility and functionality of adhesive tapes for repair and protection

Adhesive tapes are a versatile and essential solution not only for packaging but also for a wide range of repair and protection needs. These products belong to a protection and repair category and are designed to offer maximum strength and reliability, making them ideal for many uses. The following are the ideal Fabo products for repair and protection operations.

Repair and reinforcement

The American tape or duct tape, known for its robustness and impermeability, is perfect for emergency repairs and long-term applications. Its ability to adhere firmly to various surfaces makes it a popular choice in many domestic and industrial situations.

With reinforced polyethylene film and Hot Melt adhesive, the 888 duct tape is ideal for reinforcing, belting, and wrapping heavy packages. It is waterproof, easy to tear, available in both grey and black, and comes in different cut sizes.

Protecting, repairing and fixing surfaces

In order to protect surfaces from scratches and damage, protective and metallised tapes offer excellent strength upon application and are ideal for splicing, wrapping and fixing insulation materials. These tapes are designed to withstand changes in temperatures and harsh environmental conditions, providing long-lasting protection.

The masking tape 900, on the other hand, features a solvent-free, water-based Acrylic adhesive with a low-density polyethylene (PE) film. This tape offers exceptional resistance to tearing and UV radiation, making it ideal for protection, belting and repair applications, e.g. greenhouses.

A 922 version of this tape is also available, featuring an increased thickness and a zig-zag edge.

Both made of transparent material, they can be cut in different formats, from single ribbon to jumbo roll.
Also in our product range is 243 metallised tape, with solvent-free Acrylic adhesive and biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) film. Perfect for wrapping, fixing insulation materials and splicing objects, it offers UV resistance and can be customised with flexographic printing.

Packaging and special applications

Adhesive repair and protection tapes are also particularly useful for sealing heavy packages. In fact, they are a safe solution for shipping and transporting packages, both individually and on pallets of various sizes.

Thanks to our development and design technologies – as well as quality control and innovation – we can also offer removable adhesive tapes, perfect for situations where temporary fixation, repair or protection is required. These tapes are ideal for protecting surfaces during painting operations or other activities that could damage the underlying surface. They are also useful for repairing small household appliances, protecting mosquito nets, or car parts while awaiting professional assistance.

Therefore, these tapes are excellent for distributors, retailers or suppliers, since they allow them to provide solutions targeted to customer’s specific needs.

Conclusion

Adhesive tapes are distinguished by their wide range of materials and adhesiveness. They meet the requirements for reinforcement, repair, and packaging operations as well as protection from scratches and damage. With our experience and innovation, we offer products that guarantee optimal and lasting results. Ours are versatile tools indispensable for a wide variety of applications, whether at home or in the workplace.

Fabo, producer of packaging tapes

Fabo has been a manufacturer of adhesive packaging tapes since 1971. Today, with over 50 years of experience, it is one of the most important European manufacturers in the sector, known as one of the first in Europe to produce solvent-free adhesive tapes. The factory covers an area of 15,000 sqm with an annual production of over 350,000,000 sqm of adhesive tape. It is mainly thanks to investments in R&D, with the expansion of the laboratory and of our specialised personnel over the years, that the company has expanded its range of adhesive products for multiple packaging applications. The solutions offered by Fabo for the packaging of your shipments range from products with water-based Acrylic adhesive – for a quiet unwinding product with excellent resistance to ageing and UV rays – to products with Hot Melt adhesive – for a more aggressive and immediate grip on all types of packaging – always characterised by reliability and performance.

Fabo’s wide range of packaging products reflects the quality of the adhesive solutions developed by the company over the years and stands as an ideal products’ catalogue for supplying customers operating in the adhesive tape distribution, printing and slitting world.

Fabo also offers special processes such as Pack-Roll technology that allows for more silent, more transparent and easier to use tapes. This special cutting method, which totally eliminates the air present inside the rolls, means that the tapes with water-based Acrylic adhesive to which it is applied are clearly distinguished from the others in terms of appearance and performance.

The products made with Hot Melt technology are characterised by excellent adhesive properties and are ideal for sealing medium-heavypackaging in standard and even recycled cardboard. The special formula of the adhesive mass, which is highly aggressive, allows both manual and automatic taping in the industrial packaging sector.

Tape with a customised print to make your packaging immediately recognisable.

Customisation of tapes with Acrylic or Hot Melt adhesive is one of Fabo’s distinguishing services.

With four-colour flexographic pre-printing, Fabo guarantees photographic print quality to the printed tapes.

High-quality customised tapes

To customise the tape with your own logo or message, you can choose from tapes made with different
adhesive technologies and various backings.

Sandwich printing

Fabo’s sandwich flexographic printing technology allows a high definition print quality. This type of printing, which consists in the insertion of ink between the film and the adhesive substance, protects the printed colours and logos from abrasion due to use and ageing of the tape, guaranteeing a longer life time.

Solid colours

Printing is done using latest-generation machines that guarantee excellent print definition and colour brilliance. It is possible to produce coloured tapes with a solid background in your choice of Pantone colours.

Fabo, manufacturer of printed adhesive tapes

One of Fabo’s fields of expertise as a producer of printed adhesive tapes is the high level of customisation of the adhesive solutions that can be achieved. Fabo adhesive tapes can be customised using the latest flexographic and digital printing technologies.
Quality and uniformity of colours represent important challenges that at FABO we manage by adopting the best and latest equipment and technologies available on the market.
The 100% colour printing precision allows printing of logos, brands, messages and special high-fidelity graphics on adhesive tapes. New generation spectrophotometers are the measurement solution that allows us to obtain the right colour quickly and easily. Integrated InkFormulation software helps improve raw material management, streamline processes and reduce hazardous waste in the colour workflow.
Finally, a sophisticated colour kitchen mixing station, interfacing with the software, creates the colour with a precision dosage close to 100% (percentage difference of 0.002%).
The company is equipped with a modern tintometric system and printing machines that create coloured prints in full colour with photographic quality and in particular colour tones, based on the specific requests of the customers, guaranteeing optimal results.
Fabo can execute – for a customer network that includes distributors, printers, cutters, adhesive tape converters and large industries – multiple colour prints with both back printing and sandwich printing on various media with one or more logos and your message in accordance with your requests.
The sandwich printing technique involves printing between film and adhesive, thereby guaranteeing the protection of printed texts and logos (anti-scratch). The type of sandwich printing also ensures excellent quality over time, high definition and uniform performance.
To ensure your customised tapes are of the highest quality, Fabo offers the Photo Quality solution for an incredibly accurate printing result. Fabo printed ribbons in Photo Quality allow you to communicate your brand in an effective and original way. Thanks to the four-colour flexo pre-print technique, it is possible to customise the tapes to communicate your message or brand in high definition.
Fabo printed tapes are made with water-based Acrylic adhesive and Hot Melt adhesive. Printing can be done on various materials: BOPP, reinforced BOPP, MOPP (strapping), PE, PET and paper. To make the most of your customised tape, Fabo’s graphic department supports you throughout the project development, monitoring the technical production of graphic applications to be affixed to adhesive tapes and other customisations available such as sleeves, labels and boxes.

The security of your packaging is our top priority.

The FABO security range includes adhesive tapes and tamper-evident labels.

This tamper-evident line guarantees, to recipients and senders, the absolute protection of the goods and the security of sealed packages. With every attempt at opening the parcel, visible traces remain on the surfaces that have been tampered with.

Tamper-evident tape

The ideal tape for protecting valuable shipments. Also available in a customised printed version.

Tamper-evident label

The tamper-evident label guarantees security with every package. Available in standard and customised version, also with progressive numbering.

Fabo, manufacturer of security tapes and labels

The integrity of the packaging delivered represents an increasingly important and topical element, just think of the exponential growth of e-commerce, a phenomenon that at international level has permitted the sale of online products to exceed that of services (70% against 30%). In general, the number of goods exchanged with any carrier is rising sharply following the globalisation of the markets.
The security of the packages sent and received has become a major problem for companies.
As a manufacturer of adhesive tapes and solutions aimed at satisfying the different needs of our customers, the issue of shipping security is among our top priorities. The security of the packages sent and received has in fact become a problem of primary importance for companies, shipping companies and logistics. The FABO tapes and labels of the Security line are adhesive security solutions that reveal any attempt to open the parcel, leaving visible traces on the surfaces that have been tampered with. With the security solutions offered by Fabo, adhesive tape and tamper-evident labels, you can choose to protect and safeguard valuable content sent and confidential mail, thanks to the alert message that remains on the surfaces which have been tampered with, which reveals every attempt to open the parcel or letter that occurred during shipment.
The tamper-evident tape, Security Tape, is the intelligent anti-theft solution. This special adhesive tape guarantees, to senders and recipients, the absolute protection of the goods and the security of the sealed packages. Used for shipments of cardboard packaging with valuable contents or for letters containing private and confidential documents, it is applied like a normal adhesive tape but it allows to quickly discover any tampering, since in case of removal of the tape, evident traces remain with an OPEN VOID warning or alert message on the surface. The Security Tape is customisable in various colours (red, yellow, white, havana, green, blue), with the option to print logos and/or messages on the surface of the tape and also in the hidden text that appears after tampering.
It is effective in many industrial applications, logistics and shipping services and in all those sectors where security is a critical factor.
Tamper-evident labels, Security Labels, allow you to seal your packaging at critical points. In the event of an attempt to open the parcel or letter, then, like a security seal, they will clearly show evidence of this, leaving a visible message even if you attempt to re-seal the package. The use of these labels adds security to the conventional sealing of packaging and confidential mail, the Security Labels act like a security seal that effectively reveals any attempt to tamper with the packaging. Tamper-evident labels can become your unique and personal security seal thanks to the high level of customisation of the back of the label. On your customised Security Label you can insert: logos and images, QR codes and web addresses to social channels, barcodes and progressive serial numbers.
