We developed this tape to help ensure that packages arrive intact
Our heavy duty sealing tape, also known as packing tape or adhesive tape, is designed to securely seal heavy weight or over-packed cartons and packages for shipping and handling. The tape's high strength combined with its quick stick and resistance to splitting or tearing makes it popular for overseas and export shipping. The tape can be applied with a portable hand-held dispenser or stationary definite length dispenser.
