What Alanson Products does

Alanson Products is a privately held master converter and distributor of adhesive tapes and packaging supplies headquartered in Miami, Florida. The company offers a catalog of over 200 tape SKUs spanning vinyl tapes, duct tapes, foam tapes, double-coated tapes, PTFE tapes, polyester splicing tapes, tamper-evident tapes, reflective marine tapes, and specialty products such as golf lead tape. Its core technical capability is tape conversion — slitting master rolls to custom widths, colors, thicknesses, lengths, and styles — combined with distribution of compatible products from major tape brands. Select products carry UL and CSA certifications, including PVC pipe wrap tape and glass cloth thermal spray masking tape.

The company operates a direct-to-consumer e-commerce model through alansonproducts.com, with affiliated storefronts TapeJungle and TapeDepot, and also handles direct export sales. Pricing is unit-based, ranging from approximately $2.45 for small rolls to over $3,000 for specialty items, with no minimum order requirement on many SKUs and free same-day shipping on select products. It serves a horizontally diversified customer base across industrial and commercial sectors (manufacturing, HVAC, construction, automotive, aeronautical, marine, electrical), safety/OSHA compliance applications, and hobbyist consumers (scrapbooking, crafting). The company is led by President Anson Christiansen with a small team of fewer than 10 employees, supported by a Warehouse Manager and a Customer Support representative, and claims more than 20 years of industry expertise and a 95% same- or next-day shipping rate for standard items.
