The majority of our Acribond tapes are manufactured in a way that the acrylic adhesive, and the acrylic foam carrier are one. This offers superior cohesive properties, and excellent elongation and cushioning properties. With the adhesive being integrated into the foam, maximum adhesion can be maintained when the tape is being applied to a radius or to an irregular surface.
Acribond Acrylic Foam Tapes are available in clear, white, grey and dark grey. 
We offer paper and poly liners.

Which tape to use?
To determine the correct Acribond Acrylic Foam Tape for a specific application,
many factors need to be considered, such as; What are the materials that need to be joined, or bonded to? How heavy is the product? Is the application exposed to sunlight, UV, solvents, moisture, high or low temperatures? Is the application subject to movement or other environmental conditions or stresses? Will the application experience expansion and contraction? Are the substrates painted, coated or have a mould release? Is the product to be used immediately, or is there good dwell time? What are the budgeting constraints? Will the tape need to be removed?

Acribond Tapes are made from viscoelastic copolymers and polymers, some with a filler comprising of glass microspheres. The products are extruded and the curing process is by ultra violet lights. Very thin foams can be produced from 0.25mm thick up to 3mm thick using the same process. The foam is naturally tacky and has good adhesive properties. Certain grades have an additional adhesive coating.
