The invention relates to a method for producing an LED tape, comprising the following steps: producing an elastic base profile (1) and rolling up the elastic base profile (1) onto a first roll (11); producing an LED strip (323) comprising a flexible conductor tape (flexible PCB) (32) populated with LED chips (3) and rolling up the LED strip (323) onto a second roll (33); unrolling the base profile (1) from the first roll (11); unrolling the LED strip (323) from the second roll (33) and inserting the LED strip (323) into the base profile (1) and covering the LED strip (323) in the base profile (1) with a potting compound (2) and/or with a covering profile (7). The invention also relates to an LED tape in which a rollable LED strip (323) which has a flexible conductor tape (flexible PCB) (32) populated with LED chips (3) is fixed in a rollable elastic base profile (1) and is covered with a potting compound (2) and/or an in particular rollable, covering profile (7). The invention also relates to an LED strip (323) in which the flexible conductor tape (32) is corrugated in its longitudinal direction (L).
