Sourcing, specifying, and purchasing adhesive tapes can be a daunting process. There are literally millions of different tapes to choose from, and finding the right one for your needs can be an intensive process. In many cases a full service converter can be a great partner to help you find the correct tape, integrate it into your current processes, and even lower your total applied costs. As a bonus, by partnering with a full service converter you can benefit from their expert knowledge and value-added services.

Full service converters can be your one-stop partner to save sourcing time, lower material costs, reduce SKUs, boost production output, decrease labor costs, and add profit generating value to your final goods.



Here are the Top 5 Ways Your Converting Partner Can Boost Your Profits:

1. Reduce material costs

Tape converters help reduce material costs through bulk purchasing and stocking of jumbo rolls of adhesive tape. This jumbo roll inventory means your width and length of tape can be quickly customized to your production or final good specifications.

2. Save Sourcing Time

Full service converters specialize in adhesive tape. They generally are close partners of adhesive tape manufacturers, meaning they receive more in-depth product training from manufacturers. Those manufacturers rely on converter partners to transform standard tapes into production friendly customized parts.

3. Boost Production Output and Save on Labor

The specialty of a tape converter lies in the converting itself. The converter can analyze your application methods and needs to develop the ideal format for both delivering and applying the tape. For example, a custom die-cut piece of masking can take much less time to apply on the production line than hand masking a hard-to-get-to area – meaning your line can produce more parts in less time.

4. Add Profit Generating Value

The saved labor time and costs go directly to your profit by increasing your margin on the final goods by cutting down on the overall costs associated with each product.

5. Reduce SKUs

If you are supporting multiple locations, a tape converter can consolidate your product catalog – making sure you’re not ordering two similar tapes from two different distributors. A tape converter can also help you consolidate your inventory through combining the multiple tapes used for one function through laminating the tapes together and creating custom cuts and pieces.
