Tape Applications

FAQ:

Q1: What is OPE, and why is it used for tear strip packaging?
A: OPE stands for Oriented Polypropylene. It is used because of its unique directional strength, which allows it to resist stretching while enabling a very straight, clean tear in a single direction.

Q2: Can this tape withstand extreme shipping conditions?
A: Yes. The acrylic adhesive system is designed to maintain a strong bond despite moisture, humidity, and varying temperature levels encountered during long-distance shipping.

Q3: Is "Tear Strip Tape" compatible with automated packaging lines?
A: Absolutely. It is available in various lengths and widths, making it suitable for high-speed automated application on box-making and envelope-sealing machines.

Q4: Does using a packaging tear strip reduce package security?
A: No. The tape provides a high-security seal that is difficult to tamper with unnoticed. It only facilitates an easy opening once the consumer reaches the designated starting point of the strip.
