Versatile paper tapes
for industry
Applications Products Contact For partners

Paper tapes are adhesive tapes that are easy to hand-tear or cut as needed. They can be applied to a variety of surfaces and some of them can be easily removed. Our tesa® paper tapes have applications across many industries, e.g. for packaging, masking, and splicing. 

Our portfolio includes flat, creped, and washi paper tapes for specialist and general industry masking applications indoors and outdoors.

Our tesa® high-performance paper tapes are, for example, widely used for specialist masking applications in the automotive or transportation sector. They are also used more widely across manufacturing and other sectors for more sustainable carton sealing solutions.

In the paper production very often reinforcement and tear tapes are being used, which can be paper based also.

Automotive masking

Masking in multiple industries

At tesa, we are a key provider of adhesive solutions for masking in the automotive industry and all manufacturing processes. Paper tapes are a versatile option during coating and painting processes. They reliably protect surfaces from overspray and create precise, clean edges. These low-adhesion tapes are easily removed after the painting process without damaging the underlying surface. 

Washi flat-backed adhesive masking tape is ultra-thin and adapts exceptionally well to a variety of surfaces to create flat, razor-sharp paint edges. This makes it an ideal choice for demanding precision painting and lacquering environments, resulting in improved efficiency and no reworks.
