Description
Fragile Printed Packaging Tape for Clear Dispatch Labelling
Highlight cartons that need careful handling with our Fragile Printed Packaging Tape. The printed message provides a visible reminder to anyone involved in packing, storing or delivering a parcel, while the tape can also be used as part of a normal carton-sealing routine.
This 50mm-wide fragile tape is supplied on 66-metre rolls and is designed for visible parcel marking. It is a practical option for ecommerce businesses, warehouses and retailers who want to mark selected dispatches without having to add a separate fragile label to every side of a package.
Packaging tape is only one part of preparing a shipment. Where contents are fragile, use appropriate cushioning, void fill and a suitably strong box before sealing. A printed handling instruction does not guarantee the parcel will be treated differently or prevent damage in transit.
When Should You Use Fragile Tape?
- Marking shipping cartons containing suitably protected breakable items
- Making handling instructions easy to spot on warehouse dispatches
- Adding a visible fragile message to ecommerce parcels
- Sealing cartons where the printed warning is helpful to the recipient
- Keeping a standard supply of marked tape at packing stations
Apply tape so the warning remains visible and the seam is sealed correctly. For unusually heavy or valuable consignments, consider specialist packaging and carrier requirements.

Using Fragile Tape Effectively
Apply the tape to clean, dry carton surfaces and ensure the carton flaps are properly secured. Where a box needs reinforcing, add sealing tape in the areas recommended for that box style. Use internal cushioning and separate products so that fragile items do not collide inside the package.
Fragile tape communicates a handling request; it does not substitute for protective packing, carrier instructions or correct transport labelling.
