The self-adhesive tape industry is a subset of the packaging industry that produces and supplies pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes, also known as PSA tapes. These tapes are made by coating a flexible backing material, such as paper or plastic, with a pressure-sensitive adhesive. The adhesive is activated by the application of pressure and forms a bond between the tape and the surface to which it is applied.

Self-adhesive tapes are used in a wide variety of applications, including packaging, industrial, construction, and consumer goods. Some of the most common uses include sealing boxes and packages, binding, and labelling.

The self-adhesive tape industry has experienced steady growth in recent years, driven by factors such as increasing demand for packaging materials and the growing use of self-adhesive tapes in various industrial applications. The increasing popularity of e-commerce, which requires more packaging materials, also contribute to the growth of the industry.

The industry is highly competitive and is dominated by a few large players, such as 3M, Avery Dennison, Nitto Denko, and Tesa Tape, Vihaan Adhesive Tapes, Vihaan Packaging. The industry is expected to continue growing in the coming years, driven by factors such as population growth, urbanization, and increasing consumer demand for packaged goods.

The increasing focus on sustainability and reducing waste is also expected to drive growth in the industry as more companies look for eco-friendly and biodegradable options, such as self-adhesive tapes made from natural materials like bamboo and jute.
