Re-Tape®: Sustainability at the Core Big Impact
At Re-tape®, sustainability isn’t just an add-on — it’s the foundation of everything we do.
Every Re-tape® badge represents a meaningful reduction in CO₂ emissions compared with manufacturing and shipping of a brand-new replacement badge.
We use high-quality OEM adhesive tapes and materials, chosen for their durability and performance. Long-lasting materials reduce the need for frequent re-application, helping to minimise waste over time while maintaining consistent results.
We also make considered choices beyond our products. Our packaging is sourced from a local manufacturer who supply FSC-certified kraft packaging, supporting responsible forestry and reducing transport impact through local supply.
Where Possible, We Aim To:
- Reduce waste across our processes
- Work with responsible, trusted suppliers
- Minimise excess packaging
- Support local manufacturing and supply chains
Sustainability at Re-tape® is a continuous process. We regularly review how we operate to make practical improvements that benefit the environment, customers and our partners.
By choosing Re-tape®, consumers and businesses alike are choosing durability, reuse and a more responsible way forward.
“Replace the tape, not the badge.”
Why Reusing Matters
Automotive badges may be small, but the carbon footprint behind producing a new one is not.
Creating a replacement badge requires fresh raw materials, (mining, heavy industrial manufacturing, global transport, and single-use packaging — all contributing to unnecessary carbon output.
By reusing the original OEM badge when combined with Re-tape®, removes that entire environmental cost.
A Lower-Carbon Alternative
- Our process gives each badge a second life using:
- Fewer resources
- Lower energy consumption
- Zero new plastics, metals and packaging waste.
Significantly reduced CO₂ impact compared with new production,This simple shift — choosing ‘replacing the tape, not the badge’ over replacement — cuts emissions and keeps materials in circulation longer.
Circular Thinking in Action
Re-tape® supports a circular economy, by extending the life of existing automotive components. Instead of discarding a perfectly good badge, we renew with precision, respect for the original craftsmanship, all wrapped in a lighter footprint for the planet. Delivering a reduction of 95% in your CO₂ vs buying new replacement badges.
Small Part, Big Difference
One badge at a time, we’re helping film installers, bodyshops, and vehicle owners make smarter choices. Re-tape® focuses on improving what already exists, rather than producing more— its just a better way of doing things.
