Packaging paper tape Deka 48 mm x 50 m KRAFT, adhesive kraft paper tape

Deka packaging paper tape KRAFT, 48 mm x 50 m, is a pressure-sensitive adhesive kraft paper tape designed for closing cartons, parcels and general packaging tasks. The tape combines a natural kraft paper backing with an adhesive layer that adheres to cardboard and other fibrous surfaces. Its paper construction makes the tape tearable by hand and recyclable together with corrugated board, offering an alternative to plastic film tape for shipping, storage and light-duty bundling in warehouses and offices.

Advantages

The kraft paper backing provides good conformability to box corners and seams while remaining easy to tear by hand when needed. The pressure-sensitive adhesive delivers immediate initial tack to cardboard surfaces without heat or water activation. Because the tape is made of paper, it is recyclable with paper waste and reduces plastic use in packaging operations. The narrow 48 mm width fits standard stationery dispensers and offers controlled application for small to medium-sized cartons.

Suitable for

• Sealing corrugated cardboard boxes and retail cartons
• Parcel preparation for postal and courier shipments
• Light-duty bundling and temporary fastening in warehouses and offices
• Eco-conscious packaging where recyclable materials are preferred

Key specifications

• Material: kraft paper backing with pressure-sensitive adhesive
• Width: 48 mm
• Length: 50 m
• Color: natural brown kraft
• Tearability: hand-tearable along the paper grain
• Recyclability: paper tape recyclable with cardboard and paper waste

How to use

Apply the Deka kraft paper tape directly to clean, dry cardboard surfaces. For best adhesion, press the tape firmly along the seam or joint to ensure full contact between the adhesive and the substrate. The tape can be torn by hand along the grain for quick application on smaller packages; for faster sealing use a tape dispenser suited for 48 mm width rolls. No heat or water activation is required — adhesion is achieved through pressure from application.

Usage recommendations

Store rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain adhesive performance. Test adhesion on coated or non-porous surfaces before use, as performance is optimised for fibrous materials such as corrugated cardboard. For heavy or high-value shipments, combine with additional reinforcement or use wider, stronger tape options.
