The Clicktape tape dispenser is taking a good long look at a tried and true design. There's very little variation when it comes to the original design of a tape dispenser because for the most part they work very well. That doesn't mean that it can't be improved on, however, and the Clicktape is a definite improvement.
Derek Reilink is changing up the classic design by making it not only more stylish, but also easier to use. He's doing this with a chain link like design that allows the tape roll to snap in and out with ease.
The Clicktape tape dispenser is also very small and easy to handle and carry around, while looking amazing and stylish to boot.
