Cleanroom EGV Industrial Grade Vinyl Support Tape

Support-area tape is a control point, not a convenience item. It defines walkways, separates zones, flags status, seals bags, and reduces mix-ups during maintenance and clean-build work. When tape selection drifts to “whatever was nearby,” teams inherit residue events, rework, and inconsistent markings that undermine visual management.

Micronova EGV™ is built for controlled-environment support where ultra-clean specialty tape is not required. The intent is dependable adhesion on common facility surfaces with improved clean-peel behavior when removed correctly — and packaging that supports receiving and staging discipline.

• Aisle and zone marking (support corridors, staging zones, controlled work areas)
• Batch/lot identification, visual controls, and status labeling
• Clean-build projects and facility maintenance tasks
• General labeling where a write-on tape surface is preferred

• Strong bond + clean-peel intent: Rubber adhesive is positioned for reliable adhesion with reduced residue on removal when used correctly.
• Vinyl backing for support work: Useful for facility marking and general clean-build tasks where durability and conformability matter.
• Write-on surface: Supports quick field marking for status and identification without improvising with uncontrolled materials.
• Sleeve-bagged handling: Individually sleeve-bagged rolls support cleaner receiving/staging and point-of-use control.
• Traceability-friendly: Packaging supports part/lot control at receiving and point-of-use per quality system.

• Backing: Vinyl
• Adhesive: Rubber
• Core: 3" plastic core
• Roll length: 36 yards (33 m)
• Packaging: Sleeve bagged (individual)
• Sterility: Non-sterile tape product

Tape performance is a system outcome: surface condition, pressure/burnish, dwell time, chemistry exposure, and removal technique. EGV is positioned as a practical support-area tape; predictable results come from controlling the station, not from changing tape brands midstream.

Practical note: Clean-peel behavior improves when surfaces are wiped and fully dried before application, and when tape is removed slowly at a low peel angle.

EGV is positioned for cleanroom support use and is specified as sleeve-bagged for improved receiving and staging discipline. In practice, cleanliness outcomes depend heavily on roll exposure control and operator touch points at the tape station.

Practical control: Keep rolls in their sleeve until use, avoid touching adhesive edges, and reseal/overbag after opening per facility SOP.

• Sterility: Non-sterile tape product
• Packaging discipline: Sleeve-bagged rolls support staged introduction and reduced handling contamination
• Traceability: Control part number/lot at receiving and at point-of-use per your quality system

• Prep the surface: Wipe and dry the application area to remove oils and dust that reduce adhesion and increase residue risk.
• Apply with firm pressure: Seat the adhesive evenly, especially along edges and corners.
• Standardize overlap: If using tape for seam control, define overlap widths so barriers are repeatable.
• Remove correctly: Peel slowly at a low angle to reduce adhesive transfer.
• Know the limit: Not autoclavable — use validated high-temp/autoclave tapes when steam cycles are required.

• Residue at removal: Typically driven by long dwell time, chemistry exposure, or aggressive peel angle/speed.
• Edge lift: Usually surface oils/dust/moisture or insufficient burnish pressure along edges.
• Contamination at the tape station: Rolls left exposed or adhesive edges touched during use.
• Wrong tape in an EPA/ESD area: If your program requires anti-static/ESD tape, confirm suitability before introducing general-purpose tape inside the zone.

Programs typically standardize multiple tape families: one for sealing/masking, one for facility marking, one for safety/striping, and labels for structured traceability.

• Cleanroom Vinyl Tape CR100PC: When you want a premium vinyl tape option for more demanding cleanroom marking and durability expectations.
• Cleanroom PCX™ Polyethylene Tape: When an LDPE tape with acrylic-adhesive behavior is preferred for certain packaging and facility tasks.
• Cleanroom SST Striped Safety Tape: When visual safety boundaries and high-contrast striping are the primary requirement.
• LDPE with Rubber Adhesive Cleanroom Tape (KO-GO™ TPR family): When LDPE conformability and quick handling are preferred for sealing and general support tasks.
• Cleanroom Irradiated Sharpie Markers: When durable marking is needed on tape and packaging at speed.
• Cleanroom NovaStat AntiStatic Tape: When ESD/anti-static requirements apply inside an ESD Protected Area (EPA).

• Visual management consistency: Standardizing tape families reduces substitutions that create residue, rework, and inconsistent markings.
• Contamination control: Sleeve-bagged packaging supports controlled introduction when combined with station discipline.
• Audit readiness: Defined tape selection + controlled writing tools + documented dwell/removal practice reduces “unknown materials” deviations.
