Having high-quality adhesive tape at hand can be a lifesaver, whether you’re dealing with minor household fixes or small-scale construction tasks. The ZOOM range of reinforced and elastic LDPE-based tapes makes gluing and fastening work quick and hassle-free in both domestic and professional settings.
The Key to Success: Choosing the Right Tape
According to Orestas Alekna, Product Group Manager at UAB Tegra State, adhesive tapes are indispensable tools for professional craftsmen and homeowners alike. Selecting the most suitable tape depends on the complexity of the task and the working conditions.
“The first step in choosing a tape is identifying its intended purpose and the environment in which it will be used. For outdoor tasks or areas with high humidity, opt for tapes designed to withstand temperature fluctuations and moisture,” advises O. Alekna.
For example, ZOOM IRON TAPE is a high-performance tape with a synthetic rubber adhesive that offers excellent resistance to aging and temperature extremes. With strong initial adhesion, this tape is ideal for outdoor applications, including rough surfaces like brick, concrete, and stone, as well as low-energy surfaces like polyethylene. Additionally, it boasts an impressive tensile strength of up to 700 N/25 mm.
Handy for Garden and Automotive Repairs
O. Alekna also highlights two other must-have ZOOM products for any toolbox: ZOOM Professional Reinforced Tape and ZOOM Reinforced Gray Tape.
“ZOOM Professional Reinforced Tape is a versatile solution for quick fixes. It’s perfect for household repairs, garden work, construction tasks, and even car repairs,” notes Alekna.
This tape stands out for its strong adhesion, water and abrasion resistance, and ease of use—it can even be torn by hand.
“For smaller home projects, I recommend the ZOOM Reinforced Gray Tape. It’s ideal for routine repairs or unexpected situations like fixing a broken pump hose. This tape will prove invaluable,” adds Alekna.
Tips for Optimal Use
To ensure you have enough material for the entire project, Alekna advises considering the tape’s width and length. Choosing the right dimensions can make all the difference in completing your tasks efficiently.
