Design your own
Custom Printed Tape

About 3-4 weeks for initial orders.

Reorders are faster but we still recommend ordering at least 3 weeks in advance just to be safe.

From Order to Proof (1-3 Business Days); From Proof Approval to Print (12-15 Business Days); From Print to Delivery (1-5 Business Days via UPS Ground).

We can rush certain steps like the proof out of respect to pending customer orders and various production requirements. If you have an emergency or a product launch date please either note in the comments section, call (877) 284-4781 or email customtape@tapejungle.com and we will let you know if we can accommodate.

We can print up to three colors but each additional color adds to the minimum order quantity and plate fee. We usually recommended 1 or 2 colors.

This is very common! We simply edit the colors in your artwork to match your order details. You’ll be able to confirm the layout and colors in the final proof.

Pantone color matches require additional time and materials to blending together the substrates for each color. For our 11 stock colors, however, we purchase in very large quantities premixed. If your logo color is close to one of our stock colors we recommend using the stock. Pantone colors can also vary slightly, up to a shade.

It is recommended to print on neutral tape colors such as white, tan, kraft or clear. Using colored background as a surfaces requires either printing the design in a color significantly darker than the surface itself such as a black or Reflex Blue or creating a reverse print around the design which will have an ⅛” gap at the end of each impression.

We can print gradients and shading using halftones (dot matrix) but solid colors tend to print best.

Vector files, like Adobe Illustrator (.ai) or Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) are ideal, especially if we need to do any editing but anything high resolution such as PNG, PDF, JPG or PDF will print nicely.

If your image is not a vector file, then 300 dpi (dot per inch) is ideal. When you upload your design you will see a message about the resolution and our design team will let you know when making your proof.

No problem! You can still move forward and keep your place in line. Sometimes we can fix or recreate low-resolution elements for you. Also, you can follow up with us with better artwork later by replying to the order confirmation email or via customtape@tapejungle.com.

Max height is 1.6" for 2" wide tapes; 2.5" for 3" wide tapes. Length is generally 5-7” long with a maximum length of 14.5”.

Yes, the 3D online preview when used with the layout editor can show you almost exactly how the tape and layout will look when used correctly. Our design will then follow with a final proof for your approval prior to sending to production.

No, our support staff can answer any questions you have or provide free mockups but having the initial order for our design team to work from ensure the best quality for the proof, production, and delivery of your custom tape.

Yes and no. We’ll need a new plate to make any changes to the design itself, even minor details such as adding a phone number.
