Kraft Paper Packing Tape 48mm x 50m

Plastic-Free Kraft Paper Packing Tape, 48mm x 50m

This brown kraft paper packing tape is a plastic-free way to seal cartons and boxes. At 48mm wide it is the standard general-purpose width for everyday carton sealing, which makes it a practical replacement for conventional plastic tape across schools, offices, councils, warehouses, and eco retailers. Each roll runs 50m and is supplied in bulk for institutional use.

Because it is paper based, it recycles with the cardboard carton rather than having to be peeled off first. It uses a pH neutral adhesive on self-adhesive flatback kraft, so no water is needed to activate it, and it hand-tears cleanly for quick use on a packing bench. For organisations reducing packaging waste, it is a simple change that keeps parcels recyclable from start to finish.

Need a narrower width? See the 25mm kraft tape. For goods that need careful handling, the Fragile printed kraft tape carries a red Fragile message on FSC-certified paper. Browse the full kraft tape range, or pair this with recycled paper bags and padded bags and mailers for a fully coordinated plastic-free dispatch.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is 48mm kraft tape best for?

48mm is the standard general-purpose width for everyday carton and box sealing. It suits most dispatch and packing bench work, with a narrower 25mm option for lighter tasks.

Does kraft paper tape recycle with the box?

Yes. Because it is paper based with a pH neutral adhesive, it can go into the recycling stream with the cardboard carton, rather than being separated first like plastic tape.

Does this tape need water to activate?

No. It is self-adhesive flatback kraft, so it seals on contact with no water needed. It also hand-tears cleanly, so no dispenser or scissors are required.

How is this different from the Fragile printed tape?

This is plain brown kraft for general sealing. The Fragile printed version adds a red Fragile message on FSC-certified 110 micron paper for careful handling.

Can we order in bulk or get it custom printed?

Yes. It is supplied in bulk for schools, councils, offices, and warehouses. Custom printing is available with a minimum of 36 rolls. Call 1300 663 488 to arrange supply.
