Machine Applied Packing Tape
Machine applied packing tape offers efficient, sealing for high-volume packaging operations when paired with case sealing machinery. It ensures consistent, secure seals, reducing waste and increasing productivity in busy warehouses and distribution centres.
We’re here to help you get the packaging you need
As the largest distributor of protective packaging materials in the UK and Ireland, we can streamline your packaging process with efficient sealing solutions.
Machine applied packing tape is designed for use with automated or semi-automated tape dispensers and case sealers, providing consistent, efficient sealing of cartons and packages.
Machine applied tape is used with packaging machines called case sealers, offering faster, more precise application.
In contrast hand-applied tape requires manual effort with a hand-held tape gun and is more suitable for smaller volumes.
When used with a case sealer, machine applied packing tape improves efficiency, ensures consistent tape application, reduces waste, and speeds up packaging processes, making it ideal for high-volume operations.
Machine applied tape is compatible with most standard tape dispensers, but it's essential to check the width and core size to ensure a proper fit.
It comes in various materials, including acrylic, hot melt, and solvent-based adhesives, allowing you to choose based on your packaging needs. At Macfarlane Packaging, our stock range of machine applied packing tape, available to buy online, is made from a polypropylene backing with a choice of adhesives, including hot melt adhesive and solvent adhesive.
