Aluminium Tape: Durable and versatile

PPM’s 115AL Aluminium Tape is a high-quality aluminium foil tape with excellent UV resistance and compliance with Class 1 and Class 0 Fire Regulations. Its versatility makes it ideal for sealing and jointing aluminium-faced thermal insulation panels, providing edge protection for double-glazed units, and serving as a vapor barrier in cold storage applications. Beyond its functional uses, it also finds applications in decorative and protective settings, where durability and a smooth finish are essential. Professionals rely on this tape for projects where both performance and long-term stability are critical.

PVC Tapes: Protection and safety

PPM’s PVC tape range addresses two essential areas: surface protection and hazard identification.

  • 276 Easy Protection PVC Tape features a matte finish, easy unwinding, straight tearability, and clean removal without residue. It is widely used in construction for protecting surfaces during plastering and rendering, safeguarding window frames and ceramic bathroom fixtures, and joining plastic protection boards. Its combination of durability and ease of use makes it a go-to choice for busy construction sites.
  • 272 PVC Hazard Warning Tape provides high visibility and safety marking. Featuring a chevron-striped design, strong adhesive, and high abrasion resistance, this tape is commonly used to mark hazardous areas, identify first aid points, and is a standard component in fire safety equipment. Its robust construction ensures it remains in place even under demanding conditions.

High-Performance tapes for technical applications

For specialized technical tasks, PPM offers high-performance tapes engineered for precision and durability:

  • B013 Silicon PET Tape is a polyester tape coated with a thermostable adhesive system. It is ideal for wrapping cast resin capacitors and coils, masking during PCB soldering, high-temperature film and paper splicing, and masking edges for powder coating or metal bonding processes. Its resistance to heat and chemical exposure makes it a reliable choice for electronics and industrial applications.
  • 813 Outdoor Repair PE Tape, also known as All-Weather Tape, is UV-stabilized, chemically resistant, and highly conformable. It is designed for reinforcing and repairing polythene structures, greenhouse windows, and general marine sector repairs. Its toughness ensures dependable performance in outdoor and challenging environmental conditions.

Scrim Fiberglass Tape: Strengthening and finishing plasterboard

PPM’s Scrim Fiberglass Tape is specifically designed for plasterboard applications. Made of high-quality fiberglass with an adhesive coating, it strengthens wall joints and ensures a smooth, durable finish.

The tape’s mesh structure allows it to contain jointing compounds effectively during plastering. This creates strong, crack-resistant joints, even as adjacent panels move due to expansion, contraction, or human activity. The open mesh ensures that plaster covers all areas, resulting in a seamless finish when skimmed. Professionals appreciate this tape for its ability to enhance the longevity and stability of plasterboard installations.
