What Is Kraft Paper Tape?
Kraft paper tape is a sustainable sealing solution made from natural kraft paper—a strong, durable material produced through the kraft process that preserves long wood fibers for maximum strength. Coated with either water-activated or pressure-sensitive adhesive, this brown paper packing tape offers a plastic-free alternative to conventional Bopp tapes.

Also referred to as kraft packing tape, this eco-friendly option bonds securely to cardboard boxes and paper packaging, creating a reliable seal that protects contents during transit.
Benefits
  • 100% Biodegradable & Recyclable

    Unlike plastic tape that must be removed before recycling, our kraft paper tape can be recycled directly with your cardboard boxes. It breaks down naturally in composting environments, leaving no microplastic pollution behind.

  • Strong, Reliable Seal
    Don't let the eco-friendly nature fool you. This brown paper packing tape delivers impressive strength, bonding firmly to cardboard surfaces. Water-activated versions create a permanent, tamper-evident seal that becomes one with the box.
  • Renewable Materials
    Made from sustainably sourced wood fibers, our kraft packing tape utilizes renewable resources rather than fossil fuels. Choosing paper tape reduces dependence on petroleum-based plastics.
  • Professional Appearance

    The natural kraft brown finish presents a clean, rustic aesthetic that appeals to eco-conscious brands and consumers. Custom printing options allow you to reinforce your sustainable message on every package.

  • Versatile Applications

    From lightweight e-commerce shipments to heavy moving boxes, kraft paper tape handles a wide range of sealing tasks with ease.

Frequently Asked Questions​​​​​​​
 
  • Is kraft paper tape as strong as plastic tape?
Yes. Our kraft paper tape is engineered for strength comparable to plastic tape. Water-activated versions actually create stronger seals than plastic tape because they bond with cardboard fibers rather than just sticking to the surface.
  • Can I write on kraft paper tape?
Absolutely. The kraft paper surface accepts pen, marker, and pencil, making it easy to label boxes during packing—an advantage over slick plastic tape.
  • Does kraft paper tape work in cold temperatures?
Yes. Once applied, kraft packing tape maintains its bond in cold environments. For best results, apply at room temperature (above 50°F/10°C).
  • How do I recycle boxes sealed with kraft tape?
Just place the entire box in your recycling bin. Unlike plastic tape, our brown paper packing tape is accepted in paper recycling streams and will be processed along with the cardboard.
  • Is custom printing available?
Yes! We offer custom printing on all kraft paper tape options. Add your logo, sustainability message, or handling instructions. Contact us for details and minimum quantities.
  • What's the difference between self-adhesive and water-activated kraft tape?
Self-adhesive kraft paper tape uses pressure-sensitive adhesive for instant application—just peel and stick. Water-activated tape requires moisture to activate the adhesive but creates a stronger, permanent bond. Choose based on your volume, security needs, and workflow.
