The number of companies that use bookbinding tape is larger than you might imagine.

Companies that manufacture books often use tape to reinforce the book's spine, attach covers to the book block (pages) and generally strengthen the binding of a book.

Book restoration services, libraries, archives, document preservation centers, print shops, binderies, art supply stores, craft stores, and individuals who frequently repair or reinforce books and documents use bookbinding tape specifically for delicate repairs on paper-based materials, ensuring minimal damage while providing strong adhesion.  Bookbinding tape can be used on books, magazines, pamphlets, and record album jackets. 

➡️ Need for preservation:
Libraries and archives heavily rely on bookbinding tape to repair old, fragile books without further damaging the pages due to its acid-free and archival quality. 
➡️ Professional book repair:
Book restoration services use specialized bookbinding tapes to mend torn pages, reinforce spines, and stabilize damaged book covers. 
➡️ Custom binding needs:
Print shops and binderies may use bookbinding tape for reinforcing the edges of bound documents or creating unique book covers. 
➡️ Artistic applications:
Art supply stores often carry bookbinding tape for artists who use it in mixed media projects or for delicate paper repairs.
