Product Guide & FAQs


Product Information

Choosing the right tape, sticker sheet, or adhesive product can be confusing if you are not sure about the surface, use, size, or strength required.

At Cherian Enterprises, we help customers select the right product for packing, sealing, labeling, fixing, office use, industrial use, e-commerce dispatch, and custom branding.

Below are some common questions that can help you make a better buying decision.

How do I choose the right tape?

The right tape depends on how and where you plan to use it.

Before selecting a tape, consider:

  • What you want to pack, seal, or fix

  • The weight of the carton or material

  • The surface where the tape will be applied

  • Indoor or outdoor usage

  • Short-term or long-term holding requirement

  • Manual packing or machine application

  • Plain tape or custom printed tape requirement

For regular carton sealing and packing, BOPP tape is commonly used. For special surfaces, industrial use, double-sided bonding, or custom requirements, we recommend contacting our team before ordering.

What is BOPP tape?

BOPP tape stands for Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene tape. It is made using polypropylene film with adhesive coating.

It is commonly used for:

  • Carton sealing

  • E-commerce packing

  • Warehouse packing

  • Office and shop use

  • Storage and dispatch

  • Industrial packing

BOPP tapes are popular because they are easy to use, strong, and suitable for regular packaging needs.

How should I prepare the surface before applying tape?

For better bonding, the surface should be clean, dry, smooth, and free from dust, oil, moisture, grease, or loose particles.

For best results:

  • Wipe the surface before application

  • Avoid applying tape on wet or oily surfaces

  • Apply tape with firm pressure

  • Avoid extremely hot surfaces

  • Keep the surface temperature comfortable and ideally below 30°C during application

  • Test the tape on the surface if you are using it for a special purpose

Good surface preparation helps the tape bond better and last longer.

Which surfaces are difficult to bond?

Some surfaces are naturally harder for adhesive tapes to stick to. These may require special tape, surface treatment, or testing before use.

Difficult surfaces may include:

  • Polyethylene

  • Polypropylene

  • Nylon

  • Powder-coated metals

  • Special coated papers

  • Treated papers

  • Some low-energy plastic surfaces

If you are unsure about your surface, please contact us and we will guide you with a suitable option.

Which surfaces should be avoided?

Some surfaces are very difficult for normal adhesive tapes to bond with.

These include:

  • Silicone rubber

  • Teflon

  • Very oily surfaces

  • Wet or dusty surfaces

  • Rough or uneven surfaces

For such surfaces, standard tape may not perform properly. We recommend testing first or speaking with our team before purchase.

Which surfaces need extra caution?

Some materials may bond differently depending on their finish, coating, chemical treatment, or flexibility.

Use caution with:

  • Injection moulded plastics

  • Plasticised vinyl

  • Rubber mixtures

  • Painted surfaces

  • Powder-coated surfaces

  • Delicate papers or coated boards

For bulk or industrial use, testing a sample before final application is always recommended.

Can adhesive residue be removed?

Adhesive residue can sometimes remain after removing tape, especially if the tape has been applied for a long time or exposed to heat, pressure, or sunlight.

In many cases, residue can be removed using a suitable industrial cleaner. However, the result may depend on the surface and cleaner used.

Before using any cleaner, test it on a small hidden area to ensure it does not damage the surface.
