The difference and use of various non-slip tape
The main difference between various non-slip tapes is their material, performance characteristics and application scenarios.
PVC anti-slip tape
With polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as the base material, the surface is added with wear-resistant particles such as silicon carbide or alumina to increase the coefficient of friction and provide anti-slip function. PVC non-slip tape has good durability, can resist a variety of harsh environments, such as high temperature, low temperature, humidity, etc., and maintain stable non-slip performance for a long time. Its benefits include affordability, ease of installation, good anti-slip performance, a variety of color and thickness options, and some weather resistance.
Usage scenario
◪ Bathroom and kitchen
Provides safety protection in humid environments
◪ Stairs and steps
ncrease friction while walking and reduce the risk of slipping. Increase friction while walking and reduce the risk of slipping.
◪ Factory and warehouse
Use in work areas, walkways and around machines to ensure employee safety.
◪ Schools and hospitals
Public corridors, foyers and other areas with large pedestrian flow.
◪ Outdoor activity area
Such as pool side, terrace, deck, etc.
PET non-slip tape
Soft PET polyester film as the base material, one or two sides coated with high-performance pressure sensitive adhesive, thicker than PVC non-slip tape, more durable, suitable for higher durability .
Usage scenario
◪ Industrial Applications
Provide anti-slip protection around factory floor, warehouse and manufacturing equipment.
◪ Business Environment
Such as shopping malls, restaurants, gyms and other places of the floor and stairs.
◪ Outdoor Area
Such as decks, terraces, sidewalks, docks and other places that need weather resistance.
◪ Transportation Facilities
Such as bus stations, subway stations, airports and other places on the ground signs and non-slip areas.
◪ Special Purpose
Environments such as laboratories and chemical factories require a high degree of chemical resistance.
PU anti-slip tape
Polyurethane (PU) as the base material, has excellent wear resistance and chemical resistance, suitable for use in environments that need to withstand high friction, such as gyms and swimming pools .
Usage scenario
◪ Fitness room
Since people will produce a lot of friction and sweat in various sports, the use of PU non-slip tape can effectively prevent the floor from slipping and improve safety.
◪ Swimming pool
To prevent people from slipping in and out of the pool to ensure safety.
◪ Various outdoor environments
Such as parking lots, stairs and outdoor furniture, provide long-lasting anti-slip protection .
PEVA non-slip tape
PEVA non-slip tape is a kind of anti-slip product using Polyethylene-Vinyl Acetate (PEVA) as the base material. This material is popular for its environmentally friendly properties, softness and good anti-slip properties. PEVA non-slip tape is commonly used in situations where skin needs to be touched, such as bathrooms, showers, etc., because it is skin-friendly and does not cause irritation or discomfort.
Usage scenario
◪ Bathroom and shower room
Use in bathtubs and on shower floors to increase friction and prevent slipping.
◪ Children's activity area
Such as kindergartens, playgrounds, etc., to ensure the safety of children.
◪ Health care institutions
Such as hospitals, nursing homes, etc., especially areas used by the elderly and people with reduced mobility.
◪ Water park and swimming pool
Provides extra grip on slippery surfaces.
◪ Family Kitchen
Use near the sink or on kitchen tiles for added safety.
Rubber non-slip tape
Rubber as the base material, has excellent wear resistance, elasticity and anti-slip properties, suitable for all kinds of outdoor environment, such as parking lot, stairs and outdoor furniture .
Usage scenario
◪ Outdoor environment
Such as parking lots, stairs and outdoor furniture, to increase the friction when walking and reduce the risk of slipping.
◪ Industrial industry
Can be applied to stairs, freight elevators, platforms, ladders, aisles, cold rooms and other easy to damp places to provide safety protection.
◪ Catering service
Mainly used in the dishroom, laundry room, the road to the cold room and all easy to slip, to ensure the safety of staff and customers.Provides extra grip on slippery surfaces.
◪ Home and business
Mainly used in toilets, bathrooms, kitchens, swimming pools and other places with water to provide safety protection.
◪ Sports
In sports, rubber anti-slip tape can be used in skiing, paddling, changing rooms and other places with water to reduce the risk of slipping in sports.
◪ Market application
To ensure the safety of customers and staff, non-slip tape is also used on the floor of markets where products, seafood, and meat are sold.
Non-slip and non-stick adhesive tape
Also known as granular tape, the surface is granular, one side coated with rubber pressure sensitive adhesive, used for winding rollers and rollers in contact with adhesives, inks and coatings, has the characteristics of high temperature resistance and solvent resistance .
Usage scenario
◪ Industrial production
Suitable for coating machine rotation, printing machine, printing machine and other mechanical equipment.
◪ Industrial environment
Use on sidewalks, platforms, loading ramps, ladders, pedals, etc., to prevent slips, trips and falls in the workplace.
Glow-in-the-dark non-slip tape
Glow-in-the-dark anti-slip tape is a safety product that combines anti-slip function and glow-in-the-dark effect. Not only does the tape provide non-slip protection for everyday use, it also glows in low light or dark environments for increased visibility and safety. Glow-in-the-dark non-slip tape is often used where it is necessary to enhance visibility and safety at night or in emergency situations.
Usage scenario
◪ Stairs and steps
Especially in areas without adequate lighting.
◪ Emergency exit path
Such as office buildings, schools, hospitals and other public places of emergency evacuation routes.
◪ Ships and yachts
Inside the cabin and on the deck, safety guidance at night is provided.
◪ Outdoor activity area
Such as campsites, park trails, etc., to ensure that visitors walk safely at night.
◪ Industrial Facilities
Walkways and safe areas in factories and warehouses.
The choice of suitable non-slip tape should be determined according to the specific use environment and needs. For example, PVC non-slip tape is suitable for home and business environments because it is affordable and easy to install; PU and rubber non-slip tapes are more suitable for industrial and outdoor environments that require higher wear and chemical resistance. PET non-slip tape, due to its higher durability, is suitable for specific applications that require higher tape performance .
