Adhesive tapes are invented in 1925 by Richard Drew. He invented this tape originally for industrial purposes, but his invention proved that it's also useful for packaging. Tape is used for sticking two surfaces together this work in the basis of pressure sensitive adhesives. The primary use of adhesive tape is for packaging but it is now widely use in our homes and offices. These tapes are available in different sizes and also standardized in order to fit in tape dispensers.
