    Best Heat Tape For Mugs

    Hi all,

    Just a quick one, where is everyone sourcing their heat tape from that you would recommend, we currently have a supplier that is just over 1cm in thickness which is great for our mugs but recently finding them unstick after a certain amount of time. We need a tape that can be stuck on a Friday, with the mugs holding until Monday or Tuesday. If anyone has any recommendations we would most welcome :)

    I use either the tape from inkexperts or mdp.

    but the mdp tape doesn’t fit my dispenser :(

    I've just bought 5 rolls of blue MDP tape. It bloomin' stains the mugs! My recommendation is for the blue tape from Neil Brothers or Subliblanks. Xpres tape is ok, but a little hard to cut, it's clear and expensive.

    Another vote for Inkexperts tape. No staining, sticks well, not expensive, although I've not tried it over 4 days

    I would be emailing them about that!
    take pics and send them over they will sort it for you.

    I switched to just using ink experts tape.
    I have two rolls on my dispenser at a time so it cuts it into strips perfectly one click is enough for one mug or one coaster.
