FAQs

Q: Can this tape be used on all cardboard boxes?
Yes, it is suitable for most standard corrugated cartons. For very dusty, cold or heavily coated surfaces, ensure the area is clean and test adhesion before full use.

Q: Is this tape quiet to use?
Some variants use low-noise acrylic adhesive which gives a quieter unwind. Standard hot melt tapes have a more audible unwind but offer very strong adhesion.

Q: Which tape dispensers does it fit?
These rolls are designed for standard 48mm or 72mm wide handheld tape dispensers with a 76mm core, depending on the width selected.
