Some applications need a strong fixing during use but should not leave adhesive behind when the job is finished. This is where Perm Peel tape offers a useful approach. STIKON's S-FIX Perm Peel tape is a double-sided tape designed with different adhesive characteristics on either side of its PET carrier. The idea behind a perm/peel tape is fairly straightforward. One side provides a permanent bond to the item being mounted, while the other side is designed to hold the item securely but allow it to be removed later. STIKON's S-FIX removable mounting tape uses this principle for applications such as temporary signage and displays. Two Adhesive Sides, Two Different Jobs The permanent side of STIKON's S-FIX tape is intended to bond to materials such as paper, card, board and high-energy plastics. The removable side has a lower grip and is designed to hold against surfaces including glass, ABS and PVC. This combination can be useful where a sign or display needs to remai...

When two surfaces need to be joined, the adhesive tape needs to suit the materials as well as the application. Self adhesive foam tape can be useful where a combination of bonding, cushioning, sealing or insulation is required. STIKON offers a wide selection of industrial-grade foam tapes developed for different applications and working conditions. Foam tape is available with adhesive on one or both sides, depending on how it will be used. STIKON's range includes different foam types, densities, thicknesses and adhesive formulations, so there is no single tape that suits every job. Choosing the right product depends on the surface, the required bond and the conditions in which the tape will be used. Choosing the Right Foam Tape One of the advantages of using self adhesive foam tape is its ability to work across surfaces that may have slight variations or irregularities. For example, STIKON's S-Mount range includes closed-cell PE foam tapes with acrylic adhesive systems. ...

Working with plastic often presents a challenge when a clean finish is just as important as a strong bond. Traditional fixings such as screws, rivets or bolts can affect the appearance of a finished product, which is why many manufacturers and installers choose adhesive solutions instead. A dependable bonding tape for plastic provides a neat alternative while helping simplify installation. STIKON's S-Bond Clear High Bond Tape has been developed for long-term bonding where strength and appearance both matter. Manufactured using a clear acrylic gel construction, the tape is designed to create a virtually invisible bond, making it particularly suitable for applications where discreet fixing is preferred. One of the key benefits of this product is its ability to bond a variety of materials, including plastics, glass and metals. This makes it useful for projects where different surfaces need to be joined without introducing visible mechanical fixings. The transparent finish also he...

Sending products to customers is only part of the job. Making sure they arrive exactly as they left your premises is just as important. Whether goods are travelling across the country or being stored before dispatch, businesses want to know that their packaging hasn't been opened along the way. Using security tamper evident tape is a simple way to provide that reassurance. Unlike standard packaging tape, tamper-evident tape is designed to leave a visible indication if someone attempts to remove it. Instead of quietly peeling away, the tape reveals a clear VOID message, making it immediately obvious that the seal has been broken. This allows businesses to identify potential tampering before products reach the end user. The STIKON security tape range includes solutions for different packaging requirements. The Economy version provides a plain VOID security tape suitable for everyday carton sealing, while the Premium range has been developed for more demanding applications. Premi...

When people think about glazing, they usually focus on the glass itself or the frame that holds it in place. However, the materials used during installation are just as important. Choosing the right window glazing tape helps create a secure fit while supporting long-term performance in a variety of glazing applications. At STIKON, the S-Mount Security Glazing Tape range has been developed for professional glazing work where reliability is essential. Manufactured with a high-density PVC foam carrier and acrylic adhesive on both sides, it provides a dependable solution for installations that need both strength and durability. One of the practical advantages of this tape is its ability to be repositioned during installation before the adhesive reaches its full bond strength. This gives installers greater flexibility when aligning glass units and helps achieve a more accurate finish. Once in place, the adhesive continues to build strength, providing a secure and lasting bond. Becaus...
