Railways, highways, and waterways are constantly moving to get people and goods from A to B and wherever they need to be, and our versatile tesa® tapes are right there with them. From masking and surface protection to interior fittings and noise reduction, there is a tesa® solution fit for every application. Covering, masking, and fixing with tear-resistant, highly adhesive, and easy-to-remove tape offers a world of opportunity for the mobility sector. From the customer perspective, a surface they touch, flooring they step on, window they see through, and noise they do not hear is likely thanks to one of our diverse, high-quality adhesive solutions.
When passengers are added to the equation, their safety and comfort are of utmost importance. While we at tesa cannot physically assist during boarding and deboarding, our anti-slip tape made from sanded PVC is the next best thing for customer safety.
Insulation tape maintains a comfortable ambient temperature, and anti-squeak and anti-rattle tape solutions make the journey a quiet one without requiring noise-cancelling headphones.
These features, however, are equally valued by our cargo rail customers, often faced with delicate handling situations or to ensure the safety of shipping personnel.
On the maintenance and repair side, applications such as general masking, sandblasting, shot peening, straight and curved line masking, and large-area masking are ideal for multicolor painting and the fixation of impact protection sheets. Permanent and temporary surface protection will make your valuable surface look like new for years to come.
Weather and spray resistance are challenges that our tapes can tackle, making them a valid alternative for mechanical fasteners and liquid adhesives. Heat insulation and wire marking are other practical applications that make a difference out at sea. As for the design elements, our tapes are ideal for paint masking and large-area paintings, with great removability characteristics for rebranding and redesigning.
Our solutions offer outstanding holding power for permanent bonding without the need for screws. We have revolutionized the way we think about permanent fixing and replaced liquid glue with double-sided tape and welding, riveting, and screwing with highly adhesive tapes that last.
Our tesa® Masking and Surface Protection Tapes encompass a diverse range of products for the future of material bonding and protection. Namely, our heavy-duty strapping tape is a reliable solution for surface protection of glass, bundling, and palletizing and is highly abrasion-resistant for long-lasting use scenarios. Its combination of high tensile strength and low elongation makes this a strong and durable tape for your transportation needs.
There is an adhesive solution for every material combination, and we know our tesa® portfolio inside and out to help you find what you require.
On the manufacturer side, for peace of mind when it comes to security labeling, our range of tesa® tapes can be used for tamper-proof identification and marking of individual components. On a larger scale, you can use our large-area masking tapes to design your aircraft in line with your specific logos and other distinguishing markings.
A factor for passenger comfort is vibration and noise damping. Our tapes have good ageing and abrasion resistance and pad different types of material to prevent rattling, friction, and squeaking for a quiet journey. With adhesive solutions for temporary and permanent mounting, protection of internal and external sensitive surfaces, such as tables, and straight-line to large-area masking, one of our tesa® tapes will meet your unique requirements.
