70-gsm brown water-activated tape is one of our sustainable tapes, entirely made of renewable and recyclable paper. The tape comes backed with an adhesive that needs moisture to activate the adhesion on the tape, which is why this tape is also known as water-activated paper tape or gummed paper tape. It has an organic starch glue that clings to the surface of the box or package and helps the tape to remain firmly fastened to the surface. As the paper tape is 100% recyclable, it can stay on the cardboard box for recycling. This tape is not only environmentally friendly but also has a stronger adhesive than standard packaging tape, making it excellent for heavy-duty packaging and delivery purposes.

It is an excellent long-term box taping option for businesses aiming to boost their productivity and effectiveness and to prove themselves as a business practicing sustainability. The companies can further get their brand logos printed, too, for better marketing.
