Product FAQs

What is Water Activated Tape (WAT)?
Water Activated Tape, or gummed tape, is a packaging tape activated by water. Made from paper and often reinforced with fibreglass, it bonds to cartons or boxes when moistened, creating a strong, tamper-evident seal.

How does Water Activated Tape work?
WAT is activated when moistened. The tape passes through a water dispenser, wetting the adhesive side. When applied to a cardboard box, the adhesive penetrates the fibres, creating a strong, tamper-evident bond.

What types of tape are compatible with this dispenser?
This dispenser is compatible with all Gummed Paper Tape we offer, including reinforced.

What are the benefits of using Water Activated Tape?

    • Security: Provides a tamper-evident seal, ideal for securing valuable items.
    • Strength: Bonds strongly, offering durability and resistance to rough handling.
    • Sustainability: Made from recyclable paper, often with biodegradable reinforcements.
    • Cost-Efficiency: Reduces the need for multiple strips of tape, lowering material costs and improving efficiency.

Is Water Activated Tape compatible with all types of packaging?

WAT is best suited for corrugated cardboard boxes. It may not adhere well to non-porous surfaces like plastic, metal, or glossy paper but is ideal for standard shipping cartons.

What types of Water Activated Tape are available?

    • Non-Reinforced: Made from paper and adhesive, suitable for lighter packages.
    • Reinforced: Contains fibreglass for added strength, ideal for heavier or high-value packages.

Do I need special equipment to use Water Activated Tape?
Yes, WAT requires a dispenser to moisten and cut the tape. Both manual and electric dispensers are available, offering various pre-set lengths and speeds.

Can Water Activated Tape be used in high humidity or cold environments?
WAT performs well in high humidity but may take longer to bond in cold conditions. Storing tape and dispensers at moderate temperatures ensures optimal performance.

Is Water Activated Tape more expensive than traditional packaging tape?
The initial cost of WAT and dispensers may be higher than plastic tapes, but the long-term benefits include redp>uced material use, stronger seals, and better protection, leading to cost savings.

How do I store Water Activated Tape to ensure its longevity?
Store WAT in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping it in a sealed plastic bag helps prevent moisture from prematurely activating the adhesive.

Is Water Activated Tape recyclable?
Yes, WAT is recyclable. Made primarily from paper and water-based adhesive, it can be recycled with cardboard boxes, making it an eco-responsible choice.
