They all have one common feature... uncompromising quality.

What is Water Activated Tape?
Paper Tape
Water-Activated Tape is designed for fast, permanent adhesion and superior strength. Cracking of the adhesive surface provides our paper tape with excellent flexibility for sealing carton corners, edges and irregular surfaces. Use paper tapes to seal lightweight or standard sized packages or cartons that will be shipped in unitized loads or full pallets.
Reinforced Paper Tape
Available in a wide variety of sizes and product construction, reinforced water-activated tapes are designed to provide consistent performance in carton sealing applications where durability, extra strength and reliability are required. Extra strong fiberglass yarns are bonded between the high tensile strength sheets for an extra margin of strength.
