Sustainability
This compostable paper tape is a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic-based tapes. Made from kraft paper with a solvent-based adhesive, it is fully recyclable and compostable, making it ideal for eco-conscious packaging, gift wrapping, and crafts. Unlike plastic tape, it breaks down naturally without leaving behind microplastics, helping reduce landfill waste. Its production uses fewer resources and supports a circular economy, especially when paired with recyclable or biodegradable wrapping materials. By choosing this paper tape, you're making a simple but impactful switch toward a more sustainable and plastic-free lifestyle.

How to use
Using compostable paper tape is easy and effective for a variety of tasks. Simply tear the tape by hand to your desired length—no scissors needed—and apply it to clean, dry surfaces for secure sealing. It’s perfect for eco-friendly gift wrapping, packaging parcels, or crafting projects. The solvent-based adhesive ensures a strong hold, while the kraft paper backing makes it easy to write on for labeling or personal touches.
Once used, the tape can be recycled along with cardboard or composted, depending on your local waste guidelines—making it a smart, sustainable alternative to plastic tape.
