Most adhesive tapes have similar requirements when it comes to proper bonding to any surface. There are 5 critical factors to consider: surface material type, surface contamination, application temperature, pressure and time. We highly recommend that surfaces be cleaned with a non-residue cleaner. This is a very important step as most cleaners on the market do indeed leave a residue, even if it does not appear to be there. We recommend cleaners like isopropyl alcohol (IPA) as a good non-residue cleaner, please follow proper safety instructions from the supplier for safe use and storage. There are other non-residue cleaners out there as well, and we would recommend you do some testing prior to use. We do not recommend the use of most common household residential cleaners like Windex® and Simple Green® as these can leave a residue that impedes effective adhesive bonding. Cleaners that are typically used to prep surfaces for painting are usually a good choice. Look to apply tapes in a temperature range of 50F - 85F ideally and not in direct sunlight. Adhesive bonding will continue to grow over time and may take 3 - 4 days to reach peak adhesion.

If you are looking for a slip resistant tape that is well suited for both wet and dry conditions we would recommend the use of a mineral abrasive (grit) type product. These products offer the best solution if you are concerned about wet floor anti-slip safety. You want an anti-slip grit tape product that has a sand paper like finish (as shown below). If you concern is only for slip resistant in dry floor conditions then the embossed resilients may be a good choice as well.

We accept payment by Visa, MasterCard, wire transfer or check. New accounts will require 100% deposit with order. Estabilished accounts can apply for net 30 days payment terms (OAC).

Although the entire range of social distance floor signs and tapes are intended for application to a hard flooring surface we have have used these products here at INCOM on our industrial short pile carpets for periods of 3-months and they did remove cleanly. Due to the soft nature of carpet it is more likely for the product to "flag" or start to have an edge raise if walked on and care should be taken due to this issue so as not to create a trip hazard. Due to the large variety of substrates we recommend that you test in your intended application and it is the users sole responsibility to determine the suitability of this product for their intended use. We are happy to supply samples for testing prior to purchase.

Yes, our complete range of social distance floor signs and tapes can be customized with your company branding or message. This will add some additional production time to your order to allow for artwork and printing setup.

The adhesive system used on our product range is primarily focused on providing a long-term effective bond to hard flooring surfaces. The adhesive, like all adhesives will become harder to remove the longer it is installed. Although the product will most likely come up with some residual adhesive residue, this can it most cases be removed with a citrus clean or product intended for this application like Goo Gone® and Goof Off®. Due to the wide variety of sufaces we recommend testing in your intended application prior to use. We are happy to supply samples for this purpose.

Engineer grade reflective is the entry level reflective product that complies with ASTM D-4956 Type 1. If offers a good level of reflectivity couple with a low profile and economical price point. High intensity reflective tape is much more reflective than engineer grade with a reflectivity level of about 8-times higher depending on color. High intensity reflective complies with ASTM D-4956 Type III/IV and due to the micro prisim technology allows for better reflectivity from off access (angle) than engineer grade. The high intensity product is thicker and more expensive than the engineer grade product.

In Canada the transportation of dangerous goods (TDG) guidelines and regulations are handled by Transport Canada. They offer a safety program for assistance on dangerous goods transportation within Canada called Canutec. You can reach Canutech at (888) 226-8832. There is also a pocket book "Emergency Response Guidebook" that can help with TDG regulations and truck placard requirements.

Yes, we offer a range of outdoor grade floor signs and tapes for us on asphalt, concrete and steel. These products offer an abrasive slip-resistant surface that is a good choice for both wet and dry applications. Surface must be clean, swept and dry prior to application between 50F - 90F temperature range and not in direct sunlight. Gently use a soft rubber mallet to help the product conform to the mounting surface.

Our most popular anti-slip solution for barefoot traffic is the PFX-Series Softex embossed resilient adhesive backed tape. This product offers a textured surface that is not abrasive, but can still help reduce the chance of slip and falls accidents in most applications. Use some surfaces can be hard to bond to we recommend testing prior to application. We also offer a thicker premium "rubberized" version of this product offering a more durable solution.

Our ArmorStripe® ultra durable floor marking tape offers a thick durable, wear and chemical resistant product that is a great choice for high traffic areas including fork lifts. The tape is made from a thick profiled PVC with an aggressive adhesive backing. Offers durability for floor marking applications in areas with fork truck traffic.

Like most adhesive products best results will come from a smooth, clean, dry surface with an application of around room temperature (70F / 20C). We recommend that the surface be cleaned with a non-residue type cleaner such as alcohol or common paint prep products (most household cleaners will leave a residue that may impeded bonding), always follow manufacturers recommended usage guidelines. Once the surface is clean, use a firm pressure across the entire product surface to help ensure that the adhesive will bond and try to be near room temperature and avoid direct sunlight. Due to the wide variety of surfaces, we always recommend that you test in your intended application prior to use.

Generally speaking the longer the tape has been installed the harder it will be to remove and the more potential to leave an adhesive residue after removal. Start by trying to slowly pull the tape off at a 90 - 120 degree angle to the floor. It may help to heat the tape to aid in removal, be careful not to damage the surface with the heat gun. Once you have the tape removed there can be adhesive residue left behind. We have found the following products work pretty well in softening the adhesive and breaking it down to aid in removal: Citrus based cleaners, Goo Gone®, WD-40®, Goof Off® and alcohol (please followed manufacturers recommended usage guidelines). Allowing the cleaner to sit on the adhesive for 20 - 30 minutes can also help in the process but be cautious to not damage the flooring surface. Once softened a plastic paint scraper is a good choice for most applications to scrape the adhesive off.

It is common to see the DOT-C2 watermark on refletive tapes used in the transportation industry on commercial vehicles worldwide. The DOT-C2 wording confirms that the reflective tape product conforms with Department of Transportation standards as a Conspicuity tape in a 2" wide format, hence DOT-C2. Conspicuity tapes are commonly in a red and white format that improve the safety of commercial vehicles at night by offering a highly reflective surface.

Pipe and value contents identification recommendations are regulated under the ANSI/ASME A13.1-2015 compliance standards. These standards give guidance on pipe marker and value recommended placement, letter heights, flow direction marking, pipe marker sizes and recommended color schemes. These guidelines are primarily based on the type and hazard of the contents and the pipe or value size. INCOM specializes in project based applications and can built custom solutions to meet your needs.

Generally speaking the U.S. has adopted a placarding system the shares similar pictograms and colors as international community and Canada, but has also included the use of English language words on their placards to further communicate the hazard. International users and Canada typically use a wordless version of the dangerous goods placarding system that relies on the hazard pictogram, class number and color to communicate the hazard. There are some exceptions to this in all countries and in most cases when a large 4-digit UN number is displayed on the placard their is usually no wording used. Check with your local dangerous goods authority for complete details.
