Solvent kraft paper tape - Kite branded core

Solvent kraft paper tape offers a fantastic eco-friendly alternative to plastic tape. Find out more:

What is solvent-based kraft paper tape?

Unlike acrylic kraft paper tape, solvent-based self-adhesive paper kraft packaging tape sticks to itself, making it ideal for a range of applications.

It provides 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 picture framing industry as picture framers apply it to the back of frames as part of the border/framing process. For this reason, this kraft tape is often referred to as ‘framing tape’ or ‘framers tape”.

We also offer a white solvent packaging tape in 48mm, this is perfect for use in conjunction with our comprehensive range of white postal boxes and white 0201 standard cartons.

Reinforced Tape

Our durable hotmelt based adhesive paper Kraft tape offers effective adhesion that keeps boxes sealed, whilst its fibre reinforced construction and tear resistance makes it ideal for businesses where security is of the highest importance. Find out more:

What is reinforced tape?

Like standard crossweave tape, 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. Standard is available as a 50m roll.

With its instant adhesion and tamper-evident qualities, this reinforced brown paper packaging tape is perfect for heavy or bulkier items to make sure goods get to their destination without being torn and tampered with. This tape is 265mu.

Gummed paper tape is another option for an environmentally friendly tape that comes in both standard and reinforced options.

Custom Printed Paper Tape

We offer custom paper tape, allowing you to add branding, logos, or messaging to your packaging. Whether for e-commerce, retail, or shipping, our custom paper packing tape helps your packages stand out while lowering your carbon footprint.

Fragile paper tape

Our paper printed stand out ‘FRAGILE’ tape offers the exact same benefits as our polypropylene range, however, on paper kraft, making it a more economical solution. Suited to a wide range of uses this packaging tape is ideal for a host of applications and will ensure that the handler is aware of any packages that need to be handled with caution, by simply placing on the outer packaging.

This 56gsm tape can be easily torn by hand and is an easy, cost-effective way to get an important message across.

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.
