48 mm x 200 Meters Water Activated Gummed Paper Tape  | Recyclable, Biodegradable, Compostable 

Our water activated gummed paper tape is manufactured with 100% natural raw material, coming from sustainable crops. It is completely biodegradable and recyclable without additional costs and, therefore, environmental friendly. It is the only existing ecological seal method for packing and guarantees the respect for the environment and the sustainability of your shipments.

Whether it is online retail, food logistics or the supplier industry: the gummed tapes are the ideal packaging tape for cardboard packaging in every category of weight. They are suitable for manual and fully automated use, and provide a dust-tight closure on cardboard packaging with safety against tampering and unauthorized opening and an exemplary eco-balance.

Water Activated gummed paper Tape: the Environmentally-friendly cardboard packaging

All the Greener Route gummed paper tapes are made from tear-resistant Kraft paper and water-activated gummed wet tape. Gummed paper tapes are also known as water-activated tape (WAT) or wet paper tape as their adhesive requires to be wet before sticking. The paper is manufactured from wood which originates from sustainably managed forests in the EU.

The water-activated glue that we use on our packaging tapes is a natural product which consists of a coating based on potato starch, the adhesive effect of which is achieved with a simple and sparing application of water. In the case of our reinforced tapes for cardboard packaging, multiple filament reinforcements or fibre reinforcements are either overlaid on the packaging tapes in the form or a variety of layer configurations or integrated in the gummed tapes.

Tamper-proof closing of packaging and cartons

Guaranteed closure and inviolability of the carton box. Gummed paper tape creates a total bond with the carton box and cannot be removed without leaving traces, breaking the tape. So direct noticeable when tampered with.

With our packaging tape for cartons, packages and packets made from corrugated cardboard or solid cardboard obtain a secure and air-tight closure which makes tampering to the packaging immediately identifiable. This is because after it is activated with water, the adhesive coating on the tear-resistant tapes creates an inseparable material composite with the cardboard packaging.

Cardboard packaging which has been closed with gummed tape  cannot be open or closed again without destroying the surface of the packaging. Our packaging tapes therefore make a valuable contribution to product protection and transport safety.

All water activated paper tape from Greener Route are supplied on ready-to-use rolls that are available in a variety of lengths. The packaging tapes can be applied manually, semi-automatically or with the use of fully automatic closing equipment and packaging lines.

The additional strengths of our packaging tapes include their temperature resistance – the tapes are resistant to heat and the cold – as well as their stabilising effect on packaging and cartons made from corrugated and solid cardboard.
