Solvent kraft paper tape - Kite branded core
What is solvent-based kraft paper tape?
One of the key differences between acrylic kraft paper tape and solvent-based self-adhesive paper kraft packaging tape is that solvent sticks to itself, making it ideal for a range of applications. It also performs better at extreme temperatures. Similar to acrylic tape, this is a great enviro-friendly alternative to plastic tape. It is favoured by those who are looking for strong tape to secure their goods, all the while with the environment in mind.
Where is it often used?
It offers long-lasting adhesion and requires minimal pressure when applied. Easily torn by hand, our brown paper solvent tape is available in 25mm, 38mm and 48mm. Solvent brown paper tape is widely used in the craft and framing industry as picture framers apply it to the back of frames as part of the border/framing process – this is where the tape sticking to itself comes in handy. For this reason, this kraft tape is often referred to as ‘framing tape’ or ‘framers tape”. 100% recyclable.
We also offer a white solvent paper tape in 48mm, this is perfect for use in conjunction with our comprehensive range of white postal boxes and white 0201 standard cartons.

Our standard reinforced paper tape is comprised of cross weave glass filaments, therefore, making it extremely strong and difficult to tear and ideal for a range of applications. It is a particularly useful option for users who require a strong reinforced tape that offers an environmentally-friendly solution as well as also being self-adhesive. Standard is available as a 50m roll.

See how we use standard and reinforced paper kraft tape
We sell two types of paper kraft tape, standard which can be used for a wide range of applications where sealing is required and reinforced, which has cross weave glass filaments offering that extra bit of security as it is extremely difficult to tear. Standard kraft paper tape comes with a solvent adhesive, solvent sticks to itself and works better in extreme temperatures. Both can be torn by hand and have a strong stick to cartons. Standard kraft paper tape is the ideal low-cost solution for many industries, including retail, framing, warehousing and fulfilment companies. Reinforced kraft paper tape is made with extra strong cross weave glass filaments, meaning it can be extremely difficult to tamper with, offering that extra bit of security when required. Once applied, the tape creates a strong bond that is difficult to tear off. This makes it ideal when shipping high value or sensitive goods.
