In the field of packaging, wet kraft paper tape is an unsung hero. It is not as popular as polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride. However, it still provides a high level of safety and durability.

In this blog post, we will see how wet kraft tape works and how it can help you better transport your products.

What is hydraulic tape and how does it work?

Also known as "adhesive tape" or "kraft paper tape", the water-activated adhesive tape is made of paper,

but it is reinforced with crisscross synthetic fiber network to provide additional strength and water-based adhesive, so that it can be tightly bonded to the packaging surface.

When the adhesive tape dispenser is used to apply water to the adhesive, it will cause capillary action, and make the adhesive tape stick to the carton. Most tape dispensers supply, wet and cut tape.

Once the tape is sealed, it forms a permanent bond, just as you will find after licking the adhesive on the envelope. Although the plastic tape can be peeled off, you need to tear the paper tape to open it.

This makes water activated paper tape a simple and efficient way to prevent theft or packaging tampering. It is impossible for anyone to open the package without leaving traces.

Paper tape is also a very useful packaging tape, which is suitable for enterprises that are full of soft goods such as clothes in the box,

or enterprises that ship loose and non-stackable products. When you cannot apply too much pressure on the tape, it is easier to seal the box with water activated paper tape.

But because paper tape is very durable, it is a good choice for companies that need to transport heavy or overfilled packages.

Other advantages of paper tape include:

Printability gives you the opportunity to display your company's name or log when shipping.

It sticks to several different products, including new and recycled cardboard or possibly dirty or dusty surfaces

It is environmentally friendly

It is very sanitary - which makes it a good adhesive tape for pharmaceutical companies - and has no smell, which is very helpful when you need to transport food

It's very sticky. You only need a piece of adhesive tape

It is very durable and can withstand various environmental conditions

Paper tape and paper tape dispenser

As we mentioned earlier, the paper tape is distributed using a large machine with a water brush to trigger its adhesion.

This is a PVC tape and polypropylene tape with some advantages. They were distributed with portable glue guns.

You can take it with you in the workplace. With paper tape, you need to take the package to the tape cutter, not the opposite.
