Packaging tape Donau Hot-Melt 48 mm × 120 m, 40 µm, transparent

Donau Hot-Melt packaging tape, 48 mm × 120 m with a 40 µm backing in transparent finish, is designed for sealing cartons and parcels in shipping, warehousing and e‑commerce packing operations. The tape combines a durable polypropylene backing with a hot‑melt adhesive that delivers fast initial tack and secure long‑term closure. It is compatible with manual and tabletop dispensers and is suitable for standard carton sealing and general packaging tasks where a clear, unobtrusive finish is desired.

Advantages

The hot‑melt adhesive formulation provides strong initial adhesion to corrugated cardboard and many paper surfaces while maintaining reliable holding power during transport and storage. A 40 µm backing balances tensile strength and flexibility, allowing the tape to conform to irregular carton surfaces without splitting. The transparent appearance keeps printed labels and markings visible and gives a neat professional look. The roll dimensions and core size are suitable for common handheld and desktop dispensers, enabling efficient manual application.

Suitable for

• Sealing corrugated boxes and cartons for shipping and storage

• Warehouse and distribution centre packaging operations
• Manual and tabletop dispenser use in offices and packing stations

How to use

Clean and dry the carton surface before applying the tape. For manual application, use a handheld dispenser or tear the tape and press firmly along the seam to ensure full contact between adhesive and substrate. For higher throughput, load the roll into a compatible tabletop dispenser and apply the tape across the closure, pressing the adhesive firmly along the sealed edge. Apply consistent pressure to ensure good adhesion and avoid wrinkling the tape. Store unused rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve adhesive performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use on standard corrugated cardboard and paper surfaces at room temperature. Avoid applying the tape to dusty, oily, wet or very cold surfaces. If sealing heavy or irregular packages, consider using multiple tape strips or wider tape to increase holding strength.
