Same tape, different price?

2024-11-01

Source: Different manufacturers have different suppliers of raw materials, and other costs are different, so of course the prices are different.


Region: In China, a considerable number of manufacturers are concentrated in the area north of the Huaihe River, which makes the cost in the south higher than that in the north.

Some are just cheating, such as our most common glue: some unscrupulous manufacturers, in order to reduce costs, mix various substances into the glue that originally accounted for the majority of butyl (butyl is the main component of the glue of transparent tape). As a result, the weight is heavier, the feel is better when picking up, the cost is lower, and the selling price is naturally lower, but the corresponding viscosity is naturally lower, resulting in what everyone says is not sticky at all or not sticky enough.


Thickness: I believe that everyone cares about the word "thickness" when buying tape online. Let me tell you, thickness does not guarantee that the tape you get will be long enough. We can do it when slitting tapes, and the same length can be rolled out with a tape of plus or minus 1-5 mm. What is the concept? When you buy a 2.5 thick tape, you may only buy a 2.0 thick tape. If you are a manufacturer, do you want it thicker or thinner?


Length: When we do business offline, we do not specify the specifications based on the thickness of the fabric, but the unit price based on the length. The unit of our quotation is how much money per meter, and many dealers say how much money per yard. I will tell you that one yard is equal to 0.9144 meters. For example, a roll of 20 meters is equal to 22 yards. I don't calculate how much money a box of more than 100 rolls costs, but I believe you all know it.
