Schümann will be presenting its complete range of reversible and permanent bag closing tapes at the K trade fair. The bag closing tapes enable secure and fast closing and sealing of film bags made of PP, OPP, PE and HDPE.
In many industries, double-sided adhesive tapes are indispensable packaging materials for closing and sealing plastic film bags and envelopes. Depending on the contents and shipping method however, the quality requirements for these bag-closing tapes differ (BCT). In order to fulfil as many customer requirements as possible, the German closure manufacturer Schümann now offers a large selection of these bag closure tapes.
The great commonality of all BCTs from Schümann is that they are all in favour of the Sealing of standard film bags made of polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), hard polyethylene (HDPE) and orientated polypropylene (OPP) suitable. Whether the choice then falls on a tape from the group of reversible closure tapes or a variant from the family of permanently adhesive BCTs depends primarily on the type of packaged goods and the requirements for tamper protection and the usability of the packaging.
For example, if the film bag is to be allow the repeated removal of partial contents, If the bag is to be resealed several times, the use of reversible tape is recommended. If, on the other hand a tamper-proof closure is required, If the tape can only be torn open once - similar to a seal - and the film bag is damaged in a way that can be clearly identified, permanent adhesive tapes are the better choice.
The bag fastening straps from Schümann have high-quality adhesive coatings and are suitable for fully automated application in the bag manufacturers' processing systems. They are supplied ready for use in the form of cross-wound rolls that can be inserted directly into the machines and are designed for high production speeds. The BCT can Thermally cut with welding bars and heat cutters or also mechanically punched become.
In manual packaging lines, the bag closing tapes from Schümann prove to be a user-friendly solution. This is because both the reversible and the permanently adhesive BCT are characterised by product features that ensure easy handling. Easy handling of the film bags when inserting the goods and enable their secure and error-free closing.
The reversible and double-sided adhesive bag-closing tapes are also suitable for bag packaging with small items that need to be accessed multiple times (kits, C-parts) or products that need to be stored to protect their value (samples, textiles). Depending on the design, the sealing tapes have Also liner with easy-peel coating, with normal antistatic effect or with very high antistatic effect. The anti-static properties of the tapes prevent detached liners from hindering manual packaging work by sticking to fingers or clothing. They are also ideal for packaging sensitive electrical and electronic components.
Schümann offers permanently adhesive BCTs for applications where tamper protection and resistance take centre stage. They apply as the optimum sealing solution for tamper-evident film bags with valuable and sensitive contents. This is because it is impossible to open the bag without destroying it once it has been sealed with this type of tape. Due to these seal-like properties, permanently adhesive BCTs are very suitable for packaging cosmetics, pharmaceutical and hygiene products, foodstuffs as well as bank and insurance documents. For increased anti-static requirements, Schümann recommends a permanently adhesive BCT with a highly antistatic zero-static liner.
