Whether you are marking walkways, highlighting hazards, organising storage areas, or improving overall safety and efficiency, our range allows you to compare different floor tape types, colours, and durability levels to ensure you select the right product for the job.
Reliable Value - Standard PVC Floor Tape
For customers seeking a cost-effective and versatile solution, PVC floor tape is an excellent choice. This budet-friendly option is ideal for light to medium-duty applications and is commonly used in warehouses, factories, workshops, and retail environments.
PVC floor tape is available in a wide selection of solid block colours, making it easy to create clear visual guidance or zoning.
Chevron colour options are also available, providing a highly visible solution for marking hazards or restricted areas. One of the key benefits of PVC floor tape is its ease of application. It can be applied quickly with minimal preparation and requires no drying time, meaning it can be put to work immediately with little disruption to your operation.

Permastripe Tape - The Gold Standard In Durability
If you require a more durable and long-lasting floor marking solution, Permastripe is an ideal alternative. Designed for higher-traffic environments, Permastripe floor tape offers increased resistance to wear, making it suitable for areas with frequent foot traffic, trolleys, or machinery. It is available in a range of widths and colours, allowing you to tailor your floor markings to suit specific safety standards or operational requirements.
Permastripe provides a clean, professional finish and is more long wearing than PVC tape. We do advise that in all instances tape should not be driven over as tyres and turning can case damage and weaken the adhesion to the floor.
To achieve the best results with Permastripe, correct surface preparation is essential. The tape should be applied to a clean, dry floor that is free from dust, grease, and debris. This ensures maximum adhesion and helps extend the lifespan of the tape.
When applied correctly, Permastripe delivers a reliable, long-term solution that reduces the need for frequent replacements. With both PVC floor tape and Permastripe available, Rack & Shelf Shop makes it easy to find a floor marking solution that balances cost, durability, and performance.
Our range ensures you can create safer, more organised, and more efficient workspaces with confidence. With our quick dispatch you can be marking your storage area in no time.
