Special adhesive
Our paper tape uses a special PK6 adhesive, combining the best qualities of acrylic, hot melt, and solvent adhesives. This water-based adhesive not only makes the tape environmentally friendly but also ensures excellent durability in various conditions.
Durability and temperature resistance
