Floor tape: Superior Mark
Clear is a new clear, heavy-duty
vinyl floor tape that can be
used to protect floor markings
such as the bar-coded labels
that indicate pallet locations inside factories and warehouses.
Applying Superior Mark Clear as an overlay on top of labels or
floor striping tape can make the floor markings last longer, says
the manufacturer, Stop-painting.com. The Superior Mark Clear
has beveled edges and recessed adhesive, which allows the tape
to withstand more force than standard floor tape, according to
the manufacturer. Whenever a forklift pushes a pallet on top of
these floor label protectors, the pallet will ride up and over the
beveled edge, rather than dislodging the floor label protector.
Superior Mark Clear is available in pre-cut strips or by the roll.
