The full job of a package is containment, protection and communication. The right tapes and other accessories can help your packages get to your customers intact.
Acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives applied to a tape backing provide excellent adhesion over a broad range of temperatures and substrates.
A hot melt synthetic rubber adhesive is applied to a tape backing so that when it cools it makes an excellent quick-stick adhesive with good hold for recycled corrugate.
When moistened, the cornstarch-based adhesive interacts with porous surfaces to form a powerful bond that shows immediately if tampered with before delivery.
More recycling means shorter fibers that require a tackier tape to hold well – these tapes are designed specifically for recycled corrugated cartons.
Can be applied at freezer and refrigerator temperatures (20°-50°F) and once applied performs well below freezing temperatures.
Logos and other promotional messages identify your packages to help you stand out from competitors and won’t rub off during transit.
Printed messages tell customers to inspect seals and packaging and help reduce the risk of theft during shipping.
Engineered to meet virtually any box closing, palletizing, strapping, bundling and reinforcing challenge.
Splicing and bundling tapes with high-temp versions for processes that have a bake cycle, suitable for hand tearing or machine dispensing.
Designed for excellent handling and quick stick to a variety of substrates as well as easy opening when used as a closure.
