Binding Tape: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.90 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.015 at volume, on a typical 30-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For binding tape, the drivers are fabric blend, weight, stretch recovery, color, width, material, weave, finish — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale listings show seam-tape pricing is driven mainly by construction and unit of sale: width/thickness, adhesive or heat-seal backing, and whether the quote is per roll, meter, or square meter. Realistic supplier routes are import/trade platforms like Made-in-China and hisupplier for factory-direct MOQs, or specialty US distributors for branded sealing tape; custom-print/brand-color requirements usually push pricing up unless they are standard industrial colors. Prices fall sharply at higher MOQs, but the lowest tiers often reflect simplified product specs or large-volume industrial tape rather than apparel-grade custom trim.
