Tape Dispenser Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Product Type (Handheld, Tabletop, Definite Length Dispenser, Stretchable Tape Dispenser), By Technology (Automatic, Manual), By End-use (Office & Commercial, Industrial), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2023 To 2028

The tape dispenser market is projected to show steady growth during the forecast period.

A tape dispenser is an automated or portable device that contains a roll of tape and includes a mechanism to cleave the tape at one end. The size of the dispenser varies greatly depending on the tape it dispenses. Plastic is widely used to make tape dispensers. The expanding online food delivery business, as well as increased R&D efforts and product innovation by market competitors, are significant drivers of the Tape dispenser market. In addition, with increased e-commerce sales and expanding penetration of food delivery platforms in emerging regions, the usage and demand for tape dispensers are expected to rise throughout the projection period.

Introduction:

Dispensers help cut and feed tapes, reducing wasteful tape usage. It also saves time and effort that would otherwise be required to package different items and helps to streamline the packaging process. Depending on the particular use and kind of tape that needs to be placed inside of them, tape dispensers are available in an assortment of sizes. Tape dispensers can be as basic as a manual dispenser or as complicated as a fully automated dispenser that is primarily intended for industrial usage. They are used for a variety of tapes, including pressure-sensitive, adhesive, and industrial tapes. Technology has been a recent trend in the tape dispenser market, with more and more manufacturers producing novel goods. When producing tape dispensers, manufacturers consider customer safety as well as simplicity of handling and storage, such as the introduction of dispensers with a foam-managed tape gun and a moveable control knob, which makes it easier to apply tape without fatigue or discomfort. These advancements that make things easier to use are essentially driving the growth of the tape dispenser market. Moreover, it is exceptionally easy to unwind and offers the strength and durability necessary to withstand all the stress across the distribution networks while employing high-quality packing tape, resulting in a rise in the worldwide tape dispenser market growth throughout the projected period.

Drivers:

• Tape dispenser used in the healthcare industry is propelling market growth: Beyond traditional uses such as packing and transportation, the tape dispenser sector is expanding. Tape dispensers are increasingly being used in the healthcare industry for wound care and surgical operations. The double-sided tape dispenser comes in handy here since it makes it simple to apply medical tapes and bandages.
• Demand from the automotive industry is propelling the market growth: A surge in demand from the automotive industry is another growth driver. Masking tape dispensers are becoming increasingly popular in the automobile sector, where they are used for painting and finishing. These new uses open up new markets and revenue streams for tape dispenser producers.
• Integration of novel technologies in tape dispensing is creating positive market growth opportunities: The tape dispenser market is seeing a surge of creative technologies that are changing the way tapes are delivered. The smart tape dispenser, for example, employs artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to change the tape length based on the package size. This can assist in decreasing waste and enhance packaging efficiency. Another developing invention is the voice-activated tape dispenser, which allows users to distribute tape using just their voices. For users with restricted movement or dexterity, this may be a game changer, making the tape dispenser accessible and user-friendly.
• Growth of e-commerce channels is propelling market growth: The significant expansion in the e-commerce industry with increasing shipping operations needs suitable packaging solutions that emphasize the significance of quality during packing and shipping, such as correctly sealing cartons and boxes before shipment. As a result, tape dispensers play an important role in the eCommerce business since they prevent product theft during distribution, which can lead to claims and refunds, resulting in margin contraction for brand owners.
• Online food delivery services are likely to fuel market expansion: Online meal delivery is rapidly expanding as new platforms emerge to grab the industry and clients in various countries. With the rise of online meal delivery services, one of the most pressing problems for restaurant owners and delivery agents is packing. Proper packing ensures that the food remains warm, undamaged, and ready to consume. Furthermore, food packaging is concerned with the safety of the items sent to clients. Tape dispensers enable faster packing, which increases efficiency. They also provide versatility when it comes to packaging various sizes of boxes, containers, and cups.

The prominent growth in the hand-held tape dispenser sector under the product type segment

The tape dispenser business is projected to be dominated by handheld tape dispensers and is anticipated to capture a major market share over the forecast period. This is because of their mobility and convenience of use, making them a popular choice for consumers who need to use tape on the go. Hand-held tape dispensers are widely employed in the packaging and shipping industries because they enable rapid and effective application of packing tape. They are also employed in the arts and crafts industries since they enable accurate tape application.

The Asia Pacific region is expected to hold a significant share of the tape dispenser market:

The Asia Pacific region is poised to capture a major market share and is expected to grow with a significant CAGR over the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the presence of two developing and industrial nations, China and India. Over the forecasted period, China is likely to lead the tape dispenser business. This is due to the country's massive population and expanding eCommerce industry, which is fueling tape dispenser demand. China is the world's largest manufacturing hub, and tape dispensers are widely utilized in the sector for packing, labeling, and assembly purposes. Similarly, the rising manufacturing industry in India is driving demand for tape dispensers, which is one of the fastest growing in the globe. Tape dispenser sales are expected to expand as they become more popular in the manufacturing sector for several applications such as packaging, assembling, and labeling which would eventually propel market growth.

Key developments:

• In May 2021, Intertape Polymer Group Inc., an established supplier of tapes and films, announced the introduction of Curby Mini-Taper, a sleek and durable manual water-activated tape (WAT) dispenser developed to fill a market gap for the small or new e-commerce retailer who requires all the benefits of WAT to ship packages globally. The firm provides clients with sustainable packaging goods that can be recycled at the curb.
