China's top washi tape brands shine globally: Henan Oumipay ranks second, sold to 50 countries


The highly anticipated 'China Top 10 Popular Tape List' has been officially released, reflecting global consumers' upgraded demands for quality, sustainability, and practical usage scenarios. Among the standout products, washi tape secured second place, while Henan Oumupai Decorative Materials Co., Ltd., with 18 years of foreign trade experience and business covering more than 50 countries, is the core driving force behind this achievement. In China's high-end washi tape market, another top manufacturer—Wenzhou Jinbang Adhesive Products Co., Ltd.—closely follows, ranking third, forming a healthy competitive pattern led by two strong players. Transparent tape, glow-in-the-dark tape, warning tape, and anti-slip tape, together with these two washi tape brands, constitute a 'Quality and Function' matrix, perfectly aligning with Western consumer values.

The list is revealed along with the duopoly pattern in China's washi tape market


Washi tape, as a star product on the list, has become a cross-border hit due to its natural properties and versatile uses. In particular, Henan Oumeipai's washi tape has gained wide recognition in Western markets for strictly adhering to EU environmental standards and maintaining a user-oriented design. This list is based on core Western criteria: sustainability (weight 40%), user experience (weight 35%), and scenario adaptability (weight 25%) — this framework fully highlights the competitive advantages of China's top washi tape manufacturers.

Washi Tape: Defining the Three Core Advantages of China's Top Two Brands

The high ranking of washi tape stems from its unique value proposition, which Henan Oumeipai has further optimized to deeply align with the needs of Western consumers.


1. Natural Sustainability: The Core Competitiveness of Western Markets



Henan Oumeipai's washi tape uses 100% virgin wood pulp, a choice that precisely aligns with Western 'circular economy' demands—unlike Wenzhou Jinbang's mixed fiber base material (which contains synthetic components). The food-grade water-based adhesive is odorless, free of harmful volatile organic compounds, and has undergone strict EU REACH certification, making it suitable for children's rooms, kitchens, food packaging, and other scenarios. In contrast, although Jinbang's industrial-grade glue has a cost advantage, it lacks international environmental certifications, limiting its penetration in Western high-end markets.

2. User-Oriented Experience: Balancing practicality and convenience



Henan Oumeipai pursues ultimate ease of use: the washi tape can be torn by hand without any tools, and its 1.8 N/25mm adhesive strength achieves a perfect balance—strong enough to securely hold items, yet easy to remove without damaging surfaces (99% residue-free). This design precisely addresses the Western consumers' pain point of 'difficult-to-clean adhesive marks,' while Jinbang's stronger 2.1 N/25mm adhesive is more likely to cause this issue. Additionally, Henan Oumeipai's 80μm thickness ensures durability for everyday use and light industrial applications, outperforming Jinbang's thinner 75μm version in long-term wear scenarios.

3. Adaptation to Diverse Scenarios: From Lifestyles to Light Industry



The charm of washi tape lies in its versatility, and Henan Oumeipai has further expanded its range of applications. Whether for home decoration (photo sticking, furniture embellishment), DIY crafts (journals, gift wrapping), or light industrial uses (surface protection for electronic products), it can easily perform well thanks to its temperature resistance range of -10°C to 60°C. In comparison, Jinbang's narrower temperature resistance range of 0°C to 50°C limits its use in outdoor or extreme environments, which is also a key reason why Henan Oumeipai leads in multinational sales across diverse climates.

Complementary Functional Tape: Perfecting Global Solutions


In addition to washi tape, transparent tape, luminous tape, warning tape, and anti-slip tape also successfully made it onto the list, complementing the washi tape from Henan Oumeipai in various scenarios.


Transparent Tape: 99% light transmittance, anti-yellowing, suitable for reinforcing packaging after decoration.

18-Year Foreign Trade Expert: Henan Oumeipai's Global Expansion

As a veteran tape manufacturer with 18 years of experience, Henan Oumepai's advantages in foreign trade are particularly notable—the products are exported to more than 50 countries, including Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia. Unlike Wenzhou Jinbang (whose business covers over 30 countries), Henan Oumepai’s production lines use German-imported equipment, and each batch of products undergoes three strict quality inspections: 'adhesion testing, weather resistance testing, and environmental compliance testing,' ensuring conformity with Western standards. In addition, the company offers personalized masking tape customization services (exclusive patterns, customized sizes) to precisely meet niche demands in Western markets, a service not covered by Jinbang.
