Category Overview
Temporary Line Marking Tape is used to create temporary floor routes, parking bays, storage boundaries, forklift lanes, and AGV test paths. It is applied directly to the floor, so teams can change visible routes or sensor-readable paths without paint drying time.
A good line is not only about color. Warehouse aisles face pallet trucks and cleaning machines. Loading areas often fail first at the tape edge because of forklift turning. AGV routes need magnetic continuity so sensors can follow the path. For reliable selection, check floor condition, traffic type, route duration, and samples together.
Product Range / Covered Products
This category covers visual floor line marking tape for route visibility, work cells, parking bays, and fast layout changes, plus magnetic guide tape for sensor reading.
| Product Series | Main Structure | Typical Use | Selection Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visual Floor Route Tape | PVC or PET film with adhesive backing | Temporary lanes and work cells | 2 inch for compact lines, 4 inch for wider routes |
| Warehouse Route Tape | Heavy duty PVC with rubber or acrylic adhesive | Forklift aisles and pallet areas | Check edge lifting after rolling and turning |
| Parking / Asphalt Route Tape | Thick PVC or foil-backed structure | Parking bays and driveways | Use 4 inch white or yellow on clean, dry surfaces |
| AGV Magnetic Guide Tape | Flexible ferrite rubber strip | AGV path tracking | Confirm sensor gap, polarity, strength, continuity |
Selection Guide
Start by confirming who reads the line. If the route is for workers, drivers, and facility teams, visual Temporary Line Marking Tape is suitable. If it is for an AGV sensor, choose AGV magnetic guidance tape and test it with the actual vehicle. A bright warehouse line marking tape cannot replace a magnetic guide path.
Epoxy floors usually give cleaner line alignment, but glossy coatings still need testing. Concrete may contain dust, pores, coating, or oil residue. Asphalt is more irregular, so car park line marking tape and asphalt line marking tape usually need wider width and stronger floor contact. For sample checking, apply a 300 mm strip, press with a hand roller, and observe after 24 h dwell. Forklift turning observation is important because tire twisting can lift edges faster than normal rolling.
| Material / Adhesive Selection Comparison | Better For | Strength | Common Misuse Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVC with rubber adhesive | Warehouse routes and forklift lanes | Fast tack and strong contact | May leave residue after long dwell |
| Removable acrylic film tape | Short-term layout changes | Cleaner removal | Weak for heavy turning points |
| Foil-backed structure | Parking and asphalt route marking | Better conformability | Not for AGV sensor reading |
| Flexible magnetic rubber | AGV magnetic guidance | Magnetic field for sensors | Must match sensor gap and polarity |
Benefits
· Creates visible or sensor-readable routes without paint curing time.
· Supports fast layout changes in warehouses, factories, parking areas, and AGV routes.
· Separates traffic lanes, work cells, and loading areas.
· Works on epoxy floor, concrete floor, asphalt surface, warehouse floors, and factory floors.
· Allows 24 h sample trial, route alignment check, edge lifting observation, sensor gap confirmation, and route continuity testing.
What Makes Visual Line Marking Different from AGV Magnetic Guidance?
Visual line marking and AGV magnetic guidance both create a route, but they solve different problems. Visual Temporary Line Marking Tape is selected for visible lanes, boundaries, parking bays, or process routes. AGV magnetic guidance tape is selected when a machine needs to read the path. Magnetic field strength, sensor gap, curve layout, tape continuity, and centerline tracking matter more than color.

Applications
· Warehouse traffic lanes, forklift route edges, and pallet waiting zones.
· Temporary production line changes on epoxy and concrete floors.
· Work cells, inspection areas, and internal material flow routes.
· Parking bays, loading spaces, driveways, and temporary vehicle lanes.
· AGV magnetic guide paths for automated carts, AGC units, and mobile shelf systems.
Customization Options
Caution Lines Company can customize Temporary Line Marking Tape by route layout, floor type, use period, and traffic condition. Visual options include width, thickness, color, adhesive strength, backing material, liner, roll length, printed alignment marks, and private label.
For AGV magnetic guidance tape, customization starts from sensor model, sensor gap, magnetic strip width, magnetic strength, floor material, curve radius, vehicle speed, and crossing traffic. A short magnetic route can be installed first to review path tracking, signal stability, centerline correction, and protective cover needs.
How Should Temporary Routes Be Planned on Asphalt, Concrete, and Epoxy Floors?
Temporary routes should be planned by floor condition, vehicle movement, and use time. On epoxy floors, check line alignment, clean removal, and cleaning machine traffic. On concrete floors, dust, pores, coating, or oil marks can reduce adhesive contact. On asphalt or outdoor parking areas, 4 inch tape is easier to recognize. For AGV paths, confirm sensor height, magnetic tape continuity, curve radius, and sensor gap before batch installation.
FAQ
Can Temporary Line Marking Tape be used on epoxy and concrete floors?
Yes. It can be used on clean, dry epoxy and concrete floors, but dust, oil, loose coating, and rough concrete can weaken adhesive contact. A 300 mm sample strip with 24 h dwell is recommended.
Should I choose 2 inch or 4 inch line marking tape?
2 inch tape is suitable for warehouse aisles, work cells, and internal route edges. 4 inch tape is easier to identify for parking bays, loading zones, vehicle routes, and asphalt route marking.
Is visual line marking tape the same as AGV magnetic guidance tape?
No. Visual line marking tape is for human recognition. AGV magnetic guidance tape is for sensor reading, so magnetic strength, sensor gap, polarity, and path tracking must be confirmed.
How can edge lifting be reduced in forklift areas?
Prepare a clean and dry surface, avoid tight pivot-turn points, and test samples under straight rolling and forklift turning movement. For heavier traffic, stronger edge bonding may be more suitable.
