What are eco-tapes?
Eco-tapes are environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional plastic packaging tapes. They're made from sustainable materials like kraft paper and biodegradable cellulose that break down naturally without harming the environment.
What types of eco-tapes are available?
Kraft Brown Eco Tape - Made from FSC certified paper that supports sustainable forests and protects wildlife. Available in 4.8cm x 50m rolls for $4.60 inc. GST.
Biodegradable Cellulose Tape - Made from plant-based cellulose materials that naturally decompose. Available in 4.8cm x 50m rolls for $3.75 inc. GST.
Are eco-tapes as strong as regular tape?
Yes, eco-tapes are designed to provide reliable adhesion and strength for packaging needs. Kraft paper tapes often have high tensile strength suitable for sealing cardboard boxes and heavy-duty packaging applications.
How do eco-tapes benefit the environment?
100% biodegradable and compostable - They break down naturally without releasing environmental pollutants
Plastic-free - Reduces plastic waste in landfills and oceans
FSC certified - Supports sustainable forest management
Recyclable - Can be recycled with cardboard packaging
How do I use water-activated kraft tape?
Tear the length of tape you need
Use a damp sponge to wet the adhesive side of the tape
Apply to the box opening to seal securely
Can I write on eco-tapes?
Yes, kraft paper tapes typically have a non-coated surface that allows you to write on them with pens or markers, making them ideal for labeling packages.
Do you offer tape dispensers?
Yes, tape dispensers are available for $7.15 inc. GST and are compatible with eco-tape rolls for easy application.
Are eco-tapes suitable for all packaging needs?
Eco-tapes work well for most standard packaging applications including shipping boxes, moving supplies, and general sealing. For extremely heavy packages, reinforced paper tape options may be recommended.
How long do eco-tapes take to biodegrade?
Biodegradation time varies based on environmental conditions, but paper-based tapes typically decompose much faster than plastic alternatives - usually within months rather than decades.
Are eco-tapes cost-effective?
While eco-tapes may have a slightly higher upfront cost than conventional plastic tapes, they provide excellent value considering their environmental benefits and comparable performance for most applications.
