The Watershed Spotlight: Printed Tape

Last week in our Watershed Spotlight we gave you an insight into a process we offer on our Printed Films; Toll Lamination.

This week we are shining the spotlight on our Packaging division, specifically Packaging Consumables. Today we will be giving you an insight into our capabilities as a Packaging Consumables supplier by focusing on a product we manufacture at our Wales site; Printed Tape.

When Watershed Packaging was first established in 1993, we initially supplied Packaging Machinery and Packaging Consumables to our customers. In 1996, we acquired a company which manufactured Printed Tape in Wales. This enabled Watershed Packaging to then become manufacturers and suppliers of Printed Tape. This was the spark that ignited our strive for success. Since our formation over 28 years ago, Watershed Packaging has become one of the prominent suppliers of Flexible Printed Packaging, Packaging Machinery and Packaging Consumables. Our core values ​​of quality, service and innovation make Watershed a premium choice for many multinational companies.

For over 24 years we have been Custom Tape manufacturers in the UK and we are industry leaders in the manufacture of custom printed Tape. We design, print, and manufacture high quality custom printed Packaging Tape. Fun fact – did you know we are the UK’s only BRC AA Grade Tape Manufacturer!

Customised Packaging Tape is a great way to seal your boxes whilst advertising your company in transit.
