What is Acrylic Packing Tape?

Acrylic adhesive packing tape is the most commonly used tape for general box sealing and packaging applications. The water-based acrylic adhesive provides a good bond to standard and recycled cardboard, has excellent resistance to UV light and temperature variation, and maintains its adhesion over time without yellowing or drying out. It is the right choice for most everyday ecommerce and warehouse packing applications.

If you're experiencing tape lifting or poor adhesion — particularly on high recycled content cardboard boxes — consider switching to our hot melt packing tape range, which provides higher initial tack and better adhesion to difficult surfaces including recycled board.

Acrylic vs Hot Melt Tape — Which Do You Need?

Acrylic tape (this product) is best for: standard new or good quality recycled cardboard boxes, ambient temperature storage and distribution, general ecommerce and warehouse packing, cost-sensitive high-volume operations.

Hot melt tape is best for: high recycled content cardboard, cold or refrigerated environments, irregular or dusty surfaces, applications where a stronger immediate bond is needed, or where tape lifting has been a problem with acrylic.
