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 machines is this tape compatible with?
The 48mm wide, 76mm core rolls are compatible with most standard case sealing machines that accept this size. Always check your machine specification before ordering.
