Xiamen Yuhong Plastic Products Co., Ltd. produces packing tapes alongside stretch films and BOPP films at its Xiamen facility. The tape range includes standard acrylic sealing tape, paper-based tape, reinforced and strapping tape, and functional specialty tape. Each product type is tested in the company's internal laboratory before release.
A BOPP-backed tape coated with solvent acrylic adhesive. It is used for carton sealing in packaging lines and warehouses. According to internal peel testing, initial tack is approximately 1.2 N/cm². The tape maintains adhesion within a temperature range of 0°C to 45°C, which covers most unheated storage and shipping conditions.
Paper-based tape is selected when cartons need to enter the paper recycling stream without tape removal. The backing is kraft paper, which allows the tape to be processed together with the carton. This type is used by some e-commerce and retail businesses that follow packaging waste reduction programmes.
These tapes contain fiberglass filaments embedded in the backing. Tensile strength is higher than standard sealing tape of the same width, which makes them suitable for heavy cartons, bundling, and loads that require extra break resistance.
This category covers UV resistant, low noise, anti-static, and colour-coded tapes. Formulations are adjusted for each variant:
| Tape Category | Backing Material | Adhesive Type | Key Property | Width Range | Core Size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard acrylic box sealing tape | BOPP | Solvent acrylic | Initial tack approx. 1.2 N/cm²; service range 0–45°C | 24–72 mm | 3 inch |
| Paper based packing tapes | Kraft paper | Water-activated or acrylic | Recyclable with carton; no tape removal needed | 24–72 mm | 3 inch |
| Reinforced & strapping tapes | BOPP/PET with fiberglass | Solvent acrylic / hot melt | Higher tensile strength than standard tape | 12–48 mm | 3 inch |
| Special & functional packing tapes | BOPP | Varies by variant | Anti-static: 10⁶–10⁹ Ω surface resistance | 24–72 mm | 3 inch |
| Parameter | Common Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Total thickness | 40–65 μm | Depending on tape type |
| Adhesion to steel | 5–8 N/25mm | Tested according to internal method |
| Tensile strength | 30–100 N/25mm | Higher for reinforced grades |
| Elongation at break | 120–160% | BOPP backing |
| Roll length | 50–1,000 m | Custom lengths available |
| Colour | Transparent, tan, white, coloured | Custom colours on request |

Tape production follows documented procedures under the company's ISO 9001:2015 quality management system. Incoming raw materials, coating, slitting, and finished rolls are inspected at defined stages. Tests include unwind consistency, adhesion, backing integrity, and appearance.
Compliance documents such as RoHS or REACH can be provided for applicable products and destination markets.
Yuhong Plastic operates coating and slitting lines for packing tapes at its Xiamen facility. Stretch films and BOPP films are produced on in-house extrusion lines, with a total annual capacity of 5,000 metric tons. Finished tape rolls are checked before dispatch, and batch production records are maintained for traceability. Products are supplied to distributors, converters, and industrial users in Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia. Export operations are handled by the company's foreign trade subsidiary.
Paper-based tape works well for normal carton sealing, but its tensile strength is generally lower than BOPP tape of the same width. For heavy or overfilled cartons, reinforced tape is more appropriate.
Yes, as long as the dispenser matches the tape width. Because the tape has higher tensile strength, a heavier-duty dispenser is recommended for continuous use.
All packing tapes should be stored in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight and heat. Under these conditions, adhesion properties remain stable for 12–18 months from the shipment date.
Yes. Standard sealing tape, paper-based tape, reinforced tape, and specialty tapes can be combined in one order.
Custom widths and colours are available. Minimum order quantities may apply depending on the specification.
