The terms anti-slip tape and grip tape are sometimes used interchangeably when it comes to industrial adhesive tapes, but they are, in fact, different.
Anti-slip tape improves safety by giving a more secure grip underfoot for people and equipment to avoid slips, skids, and accidents. It is most commonly used on floors, stairs, and access areas.
Grip tape is used on machinery such as rollers during the production process. It improves the traction of materials such as films, paper, and textiles as they move through manufacture. Better control over these materials results in higher quality outputs and less waste.
