Description

How Water-Activated Custom Packaging Tape Works
 
01.
Activate with Water

Lightly moisten the unprinted (adhesive) side of the tape. Use a water-activated tape dispenser for speed, or a sponge for small jobs.

02.
Apply to the Box

Press the custom packaging tape firmly across the seam of your box. It bonds directly with the corrugated surface as the starch-based adhesive activates.

03.
Flip, Fill & Seal

Pack your products and then Seal the opposite side and you’re done. The custom packing tape welds to the cardboard, creating a tamper-evident seal that holds under pressure.

Custom Printed Packing Tape Seals the Deal

Full-color • Water-activated • Fiber-reinforced

Our custom packaging tape (also called custom packing tape) bonds to boxes using a water-activated adhesive, creating a tamper-evident seal that holds strong through long-distance shipping, heavy loads, and rough handling.

Each roll is embedded with fiberglass reinforcement for added durability, and printed edge-to-edge in vibrant full color using soy-based inks. Compatible with both manual and electric dispensers, it speeds up fulfillment versus multi-wrap plastic tape guns while reducing material waste.

Made from FSC®-focused recycled paper and curbside-recyclable paper components after use, this custom packaging tape delivers serious efficiency without compromising your brand—or the planet.

Whether you’re shipping 25 boxes or 25,000, it’s a smarter, cleaner, and more professional way to seal every order.

Full-Color Prints

We print your branded packing tape edge-to-edge using CMYK + White soy-based inks.

FSC®-Certified & Recyclable

Sustainable kraft paper; paper components are curbside recyclable.

Water-Activated Adheasive

Forms a permanent, tamper-evident bond with your boxes. 

Reinforced Strength

Ideal for heavier shipments and rough handling—one strip seals.

Spec’ing Your Custom Printed Packaging Tape

Selecting Tape Width

2" Width (50mm)

A solid choice for lightweight boxes and smaller shipments — ideal for businesses shipping under 20 lbs per box. It’s economical, and gets the job done.

2.75" Width (70mm)

Our most popular size. Designed for high-volume fulfillment and boxes ~20–50 lb. The wider coverage improves grip, creates a stronger seal, and speeds up application with fewer mistakes—perfect for brands that want the pro feel.

Selecting Roll Length

450 ft (137 m) Rolls – Best Value
Longer rolls mean fewer roll changes and a lower cost per foot. Ideal for businesses shipping daily or in higher volumes. More tape, fewer stops. 

164 ft (50 m) Rolls – Flexible & Accessible

Perfect for first-time orders, lower-volume packing, or teams without a dispenser. Great for testing new designs or getting started without overcommitting. 

Before
After

Starting Materials: Brown or White Kraft

Brown Kraft (100% Recycled)

Natural, raw, and earthy. Brown kraft is made entirely from recycled content and has a slightly textured, matte finish. It’s the go-to choice for eco-conscious brands and looks great with darker ink colors like black, navy, or forest green.

White Kraft (70–80% Recycled)

Clean and modern. A blank canvas for vibrant full-color designs, gradients, and fine details. If you want maximum saturation or complex branding, White delivers maximum color pop.

Design Support Included With Every Order

Whether you have a designer or not, we’ve got your back. Our team will set up your dieline, adjust your artwork if needed, and send a print-ready proof—completely free (typically within 1 business day).

Your Questions Answered

Our tape is made from either brown kraft (100% recycled) or white kraft (75% recycled) paper. Both options are FSC®‑certified and embedded with fiberglass strands for added strength. The adhesive is water-activated for a tamper-evident bond and 100% curbside recyclable.
