Peel back mold encapsulation perfection!

The current industry standard for encapsulating mold and particulates consists of cutting 6mil plastic to size and duct-taping it to create “balloon-like” areas. This process has several challenges. The first is that duct tape and rubber gloves do not mix well, which creates many opportunities for the plastic to stick to itself or you. Secondly, plastic can also fall during the application, contaminating both sides and be punctured at any time, leading to recontamination.

Aside from ensuring a continuous safe environment, one of the critical benefits of Standard 520 tape for mold is our innovative release liner. Not only does it prevent it from sticking to itself upon initial contact, but it allows Standard 520 tape to be unrolled and custom-cut to adapt to any configuration. At the IIRC standard of 6mils thick, plus the release liner, you can enjoy aditional rigidity to ensure a smooth application process despite the size of the are - without fear of it sticking to itself or being challenging to work with while wearing Personal Protective Equipment.

Eliminating Hassles: Small details that make all the difference:

Think peeling off a plastic lining while wearing PPE will be difficult? With decades in the disaster and home inspection industry, here at Tape Guys, we know small details and the right tools make all the difference. We’ve made the release liner flexible and extend beyond one edge of the film, allowing minimal contact with the adhesive side to easily remove with gloves on and peel back strategically as you adhere Standard 520 to surfaces.

Standard 520 Tape is all about making your job safer and more efficient, ensuring that every professional can focus on what they do best without compromising on safety or quality. It’s time to elevate your mold remediation process to new heights of safety and performance!
