Default Gaffer Tape supplies

Right, my club is in need of buying another box of gaffer tape, after buying some of the cheaper stuff from ToolStation, we need to know where other's buy theirs from, and how much they are paying. As long as the tape is pretty sticky, and happily tapes primafelt carpet!!

Cheers!

Adhesive Specialities Ltd who trade as "Tickitape"...

They are the actual manufacturer, which is where we buy from. Multiple grades for varying "stickiness", choice of colours too. Cost will vary on how much you buy, we buy 12 boxs at a time to get the best price possible, may not be as cheap for just one box, but they will happily quote you

PM Bete B, he buys ours, but in bigger bulk than your talking, there's a minimum order value of £200 or something I think.

We've just swapped to getting a cheaper grade of gaffer after some testing on our carpet & features to see if it still worked as well as the more expensive stuff we used to get....which it did...happy days!!!

Have a funny feeling it might be same place as Darren mentioned...
