What is “Jumbo Tape” / Jumbo Roll Tape

In the packaging/tape world, “jumbo tape” (or “jumbo roll tape”) typically refers to large-format rolls of adhesive tape or film that are either:

• very wide (e.g., widths measured in hundreds of millimetres), or

• very long (large length per roll)
  Often used by converters, slitting units, or large packaging operations rather than end-users using small handheld rolls. Some key features:

• The base film is often BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene) which gives strength, clarity and provides the film for tape manufacturing. For example one source: “BOPP is biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) film coated with water-based adhesive … available in 288 mm, 1315 mm, etc widths” for jumbo roll use.

• Jumbo sizes allow slitting later into smaller widths, or direct use for large scale packaging machines.

• They might come plain (no print) or be pre-printed, depending on requirement.

• Thickness, adhesive type, film quality will vary depending on usage (heavy-duty carton sealing, export packaging, etc).

Why sourcing from Hyderabad makes sense

• There are local manufacturers/suppliers in Hyderabad who list “BOPP Jumbo Rolls” or “jumbo roll BOPP tape” among their product ranges. For example, Spark Adhesives lists “BOPP Jumbo Roll” under its product list in Hyderabad.

• Because of local manufacturing you may benefit from shorter lead-times, lower logistics cost (within Telangana/Andhra region), easier site visits/samples.

• If you operate in Hyderabad/Airoli region, being nearby helps for visits, inspections, quick follow-up, sampling etc.
