Dispensers and Refills
Office tapes are stocked with matching dispensers - weighted desk dispensers for stations and handheld dispensers for packing tape in shipping areas - plus refill rolls so the dispenser stays in service. Tape widths run from narrow document tape to wide carton-sealing rolls. Stocking refills by the case alongside the dispensers keeps mailrooms, receiving docks and clerical stations supplied without repeat reorders.
Tapes and adhesives are a steady, cross-department reorder line consumed anywhere documents are repaired, cartons are sealed and notices are posted, from clerical offices to shipping and receiving. Because rolls deplete quickly in packaging areas, consolidating tape and glue under one wholesale account with standing orders keeps supply areas stocked and holds down per-roll cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between office tape and packing tape?
Office tape is a narrow clear or matte cellulose or film tape for document repair and light fastening at desks, used with a weighted dispenser. Packing tape is a wide, strong polypropylene tape for sealing shipping cartons, used with a hand dispenser or gun. The two are stocked separately: office tape for clerical stations and packing tape for shipping, receiving and central supply.
What tape widths are stocked?
Tape is stocked across standard widths - narrow document and office tape, medium masking and labeling tape, and wide carton-sealing packing tape. Masking tape is offered in graduated widths for bundling and surface protection. Double-sided and foam mounting tapes are stocked in narrow rolls. Both single rolls and bulk case packs are available for high-use packaging areas.
Are tape dispensers and refills available?
Yes. Weighted desk dispensers are stocked for office tape at clerical stations, and handheld and gun dispensers are stocked for packing tape in shipping areas, each with matching refill rolls. Stocking refills alongside the dispensers keeps stations in service without replacing the dispenser. Dispensers and refills are both available in case quantities.
Can facilities order tape and glue in bulk?
Yes. Office tape, masking tape, packing tape, mounting tape and glue are stocked in roll, sleeve and case quantities for hospitals, surgery centers, long-term care facilities, clinics and licensed distributors. Standing order programs cover the fastest-moving items - office tape and carton-sealing packing tape. Contact our procurement team for tiered case pricing and standing order setup.
What tapes and adhesives should be in a facility office formulary?
A facility formulary for this line typically includes transparent office tape and desk dispensers for stations, masking tape for temporary labeling, packing tape and hand dispensers for shipping, double-sided tape for document work, foam mounting tape for signage, and glue sticks for assembly. MAP Medical builds consolidated office-supply formulary packages by facility type and department mix - contact our team for an assessment.
