How to choose
Start with how the tape will be used. A retractable model with a lock, belt clip and wrist strap suits trades and site work, where it is pulled, locked and pocketed many times a day. A soft tailor's tape folds flat into a sewing kit or gym bag. Keyring minis carry a metre or two for household checks. Match length to the job: shorter tapes for desks and handbags, longer retractable tapes for rooms, fences and renovations.
Then match artwork to the model. Print areas are small, often a circle on the face of the housing, so keep logos bold and drop fine text. One-colour pad print appears on many models, full-colour digital print on selected ones, and the bamboo-faced model also lists engraving. The wheat fibre housing is a composite with polypropylene; describe it accurately in your own material. Approve the digital proof before production, and allow for setup and freight quoted separately.

Frequently asked questions
Which tape measure suits a trades-adjacent client gift?
Choose a retractable model with a locking feature, belt clip and wrist strap, and a longer blade for rooms and runs. These read as working tools rather than novelties and suit a ute or toolbox. Confirm the print method available on your chosen model before finalising artwork.
How much room does my logo have?
Print areas are small. Many round housings offer a modest circle on the face, and some keyring models are smaller again and one colour only. Simplify the logo, drop fine text, and check the stated print size for the exact model before approving artwork.
What is the minimum order and how do I get a quote?
Minimums vary by model, and current pricing and quantities are shown with each product. Submit your chosen model, artwork and quantity to Sense2 for a quote. Setup charges and freight are quoted separately, so factor both into any comparison between models.
How should I plan timing for an event handout?
Production timing depends on stock, artwork and branding method, so confirm the required date before ordering. Work backwards from the event, approve the digital proof promptly since production starts after approval, and allow for freight. If the date is tight, ask Sense2 which models are currently in stock.
What should I know about the eco housings?
The bamboo models use a bamboo panel set into an ABS or polypropylene body, not a solid timber housing. The wheat fibre model is a composite blended with polypropylene. If you need composition, care or regulatory detail, ask Sense2 for the documented specification of the specific item rather than relying on general descriptions.
How does the digital proof and ordering process work?
After you submit artwork, Sense2 prepares a digital proof showing placement and size on the chosen model. Production begins only once you approve that proof. Check the proof against the stated print dimensions, and confirm colours, since one-colour pad printing renders artwork in a single ink.
Tool that gets borrowed most
A tape measure sits on the kitchen bench, in the glovebox, in the sewing basket. Somebody is measuring a couch, a wall, a child's height mark on a door frame. Whoever owns it lends it out; whoever borrows it reads the housing while the blade is stretched across the gap. That is the appeal of this category. It is a working object that travels between hands, and each handover is another look at the mark on the side. A builder locks a long steel blade against a slab. A dressmaker loops a soft tape around a shoulder. A new homeowner pulls a keyring mini across a fridge cavity. Sense2 finishes each model with the method it supports, from one-colour pad print to engraving on the bamboo face.
