About PermaStripe

Industrial floor marking, engineered to perform

PermaStripe was created for environments where painted lines are not enough.

Warehouses, factories, distribution centres, logistics hubs and production facilities need clear, durable floor marking that can cope with constant traffic, changing layouts and demanding safety requirements. PermaStripe provides a cleaner, faster and longer-lasting alternative to traditional painted line marking, helping businesses create safer, more organised and more efficient workplaces.

Manufactured by Heskins Ltd, PermaStripe is part of a specialist range that also includes PermaRoute and PermaLean – floor marking systems designed for lean management, pedestrian routing, hazard identification and visual communication in busy industrial spaces.

Built by a specialist manufacturer

PermaStripe, PermaRoute and PermaLean are produced by Heskins Ltd, a specialist manufacturer of self-adhesive safety and marking materials. Operating from modern manufacturing sites in the North West of the UK and the Netherlands, Heskins has built its reputation by focusing on a specific area of expertise – high-performance adhesive materials for safety, grip, visibility and workplace organisation.

This focus matters. We do not simply resell generic floor marking products. We manufacture our own materials, control our own processes and understand how our tapes perform in real industrial environments. That allows us to offer consistent quality, competitive pricing and practical technical support before, during and after purchase.

Heskins is certified to ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001 standards, reflecting our commitment to quality management and responsible environmental practice.

Why PermaStripe exists

Floor marking is often treated as a minor detail until it fails.

When painted lines wear away, when pedestrian routes become unclear or when safety zones are ignored because the markings are no longer visible, the effects are immediate. Productivity suffers. Compliance becomes harder. Workplaces look less controlled. Most importantly, people are exposed to avoidable risk.

PermaStripe was developed to solve these problems with a practical system that is quick to install, easy to maintain and built for the realities of industrial use.

Our products help businesses mark:

  • Pedestrian walkways
  • Forklift routes
  • Storage bays
  • Loading areas
  • Fire exits and escape routes
  • Lean manufacturing zones
  • Hazard areas
  • 5S and visual management layouts
  • Colour-coded operational zones

The result is a workplace that is easier to understand at a glance.

More than a tape supplier

Every site is different. A warehouse that needs high-visibility pedestrian routes will have different requirements from a production facility introducing lean management, or a logistics company reorganising pick paths and dispatch zones.

That is why we offer more than standard rolls of tape.

Our team can support projects involving custom widths, shapes, colours and printed options. We can discuss consignment stock for repeat requirements, EDI and self-invoicing capability for larger customers, and contract manufacturing services including adhesive coating and die-cutting.

Whether you need a simple floor marking upgrade or a complete visual management system, we can help identify the most suitable material and format for the job.

Designed for practical installation

One of the strongest advantages of PermaStripe is the speed and simplicity of installation.

Traditional painted line marking usually requires surface preparation, drying time, restricted access and disruption to normal operations. PermaStripe can be applied quickly, reducing downtime and helping sites return to full operation sooner.

For many facilities, this makes it ideal for phased improvements, layout changes, seasonal adjustments or fast-moving operational environments where painted markings are too slow or inflexible.
