A comprehensive guide on how distributors can seize market opportunities for water activated kraft paper tape
What is water activated kraft paper tape?
Water activated kraft paper tape is an environmentally friendly sealing tape made from kraft paper as the base material. Its adhesive layer is activated by water, creating a strong bond.
After sealing, the tape forms a highly integrated structure with the surface of the cardboard box, making it difficult to tear off completely. This provides excellent tamper-evident and anti-counterfeiting effects.
From a distributor's perspective, it has several inherent advantages:
1. It is a high-frequency consumable product with stable repurchase rates.
2. It offers a clear differentiation from ordinary plastic tape, avoiding price wars.
3. It can be combined with equipment and overall packaging solutions for bundled sales.
Therefore, water activated kraft paper tape is more suitable for distributors for long-term business.
