Product Overview
Ecoxizhi kraft paper tape is a high-performance, eco-friendly packaging tape designed for carton sealing, shipping, and heavy-duty packaging applications. Made from premium kraft paper with strong adhesive systems, this tape offers a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic packaging tapes (such as BOPP or PVC tape) while delivering reliable sealing performance.
Kraft paper tape is available in two main types to suit different packaging needs:
Water-Activated Kraft Paper Tape (Gummed Tape) – Requires moisture to activate the starch-based adhesive, forming a permanent bond with cardboard fibers. Ideal for heavy-duty sealing and tamper-evident packaging.
Self-Adhesive Kraft Paper Tape – Features a pressure-sensitive adhesive (hot melt or rubber-based) that bonds instantly without water. Ideal for fast-paced packing environments.
Both options are 100% recyclable, biodegradable, and plastic-free — making them the ideal choice for businesses looking to reduce plastic waste in their packaging operations.
What Is Kraft Paper Tape?
Kraft paper tape — also known as kraft tape, paper packaging tape, or gummed tape — is a type of adhesive tape made from kraft paper as the backing material. It is widely used for sealing cartons, securing parcels, and general packaging applications.
Key characteristics include:
Paper-based backing – natural kraft color that blends well with cartons
Writable surface – convenient for marking product names, batch numbers, or handling notes
Eco-friendly – 100% recyclable and biodegradable, eliminating the need to remove tape from cardboard before recycling
Strong adhesion – permanent bond that resists lifting and tampering
Easy tear – hand-tearable for quick application
