'HOT MELT' Technology

The tape is manufactured from high-grade raw materials - biaxially-oriented polypropylene film (BOPP) with the application of adhesive coating on rubber substrate by 'hot melt' technology and has a wide application range owing to high technological characteristics.

Utilization of the most breakthrough manufacturing technology allows us to produce high-quality production that is adequately able to compete in the market.

The manufacturing process is executed on imported equipment with the usage of considerably small (in comparison with other technologies) amounts of nonrecoverable and expensive raw materials. Substrate material: polypropylene film. Adhesive: on synthetic rubber basis.

Percent elongation at break - no less than 120%.
Delamination strength - no less than 3,0 N/ sm.
Operating conditions from -15°C to +50°C.
Tape thickness w/ adhesive layer - 45-50 mcm.
Tape width (mm) - 50, 70, 75.
Tape length: on the customer's request.
Tape color - transparent, white, brown.
For adhesive tapes with logo - printing is between the substrate (polypropylene film) and adhesive layer ('interlayer printing').

Operating conditions of packaging adhesive tapes (scotch)

Packaging adhesive tapes (scotch) are intended for manual and automatic packing of cardboard boxes, paper and film sticking, gluing labels to glass and polymeric packaging materials as well as for other operations when packing different goods and stocking labeling under operating conditions from -15°C to +50°C.
Before the application the tape is kept to mature for no less than 3 hours with temperature (15-30)°C and is sticked by insignificant pressure without tension under the same temperature.
The surface the tape to be sticked to should be dry, smooth, flat, dust- and fat-free. Storage conditions - from +5°C to +30°C and relative humidity up to 80% at the distance no less than 1 m from heating devices.
Warranty shelf-life of the tape is 1 year from the date of production.

Adhesive tape (scotch) with printing

Customers who have special requirements to own packaging are offered packing adhesive tapes with applied printed picture (logotype) of up to 4 colors.
Printed drawing can be a company's logo, a trademark or information about the manufacturer or goods. 'Interlayer' printing is produced between the layers -substrate (polymeric film) and adhesive coating what in its turn guarantees additional protection of your adhesive tape from falsification and provides full protection from scuffing of printed information during handling and transportation.

The usage of adhesive tapes with logo has definite advantages:
gives additional protection from falsification of the production You manufacture;
prevents goods stealage and unauthorized access during transportation and storage;
increases visual appeal, improves package design of Your wares;
strengthens and highlights corporate identity of Your organization;
is used as a label of a pack unit of Your merchandize;
supplements advertising opportunities of Your production;
is used as obstructive, warning and informative tapes.

Additional information

Despite the fact that packaging tapes are distinguished for their application versatility, their main task is to provide reliable packaging of cardboard boxes. Under conditions of expansion of cardboard processing and recycling the packaging tapes manufactured by hot melt technology demonstrate higher adhesive quality to such surfaces.

Unique rubber adhesive layer is prominent for more reliable closing of boxes: high initial adhesion including under low temperature conditions; better shearing adhesiveness on the cardboard under high temperatures and external actions.

Nonpolar character and high aggressive adhesiveness make given adhesive tapes effective when using for packaging of containers with nonpolar polyolefine surfaces.

Hot melt technology guarantees lower weight of adhesive coating what in its turn makes rolls with smaller diameter and weight.

Good separation (releasing) of adhesive layer provides easy unrolling what promotes more convenient handling in manual and automatic usage. Such tapes secure smoother functioning of packing machines with rare tape breaks and cardboard damage.

Utilization possibilities conform to modern environmental challenges. During cardboard recycling these adhesive tapes are easy to remove from cellulose pulp, as the glue is 100% insoluble in water. When you remove the tape from cardboard it remains completely on the tape.
