Recyclable Paper Tape Dispenser

Cyklop has introduced a Diamond recyclable paper tape dispenser to complement its portfolio of packaging solutions and services. Cyklop’s Diamond water-activated (WAT) gummed paper tape and tape dispensers are commercially available throughout the world for manufacturers and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) in a wide range of industry sectors.

“Cyklop is a leading provider of packaging tape solutions. Our new Diamond product represents significant additions to our packaging solutions portfolio and demonstrates our ongoing commitment to innovation, customer satisfaction, and environmental sustainability,” says Ina Iatcov, a Cyklop worldwide WAT product leader based in Rimini, Emilia-Romagna, Italy. “Our product development team is committed to anticipating and addressing our customers’ evolving needs as well as helping them to achieve operational efficiencies. We are also passionate about maintaining high standards for quality, ethical business practices, and environmental stewardship.” 

Benefits to customers and the environment

Iatcov says that paper tape is the preferred environmentally friendly solution for closing cardboard and corrugated paper boxes. Paper tape is available in both a self-adhesive format and a gummed paper format. Gummed paper tape sticks to the box’s surface only after the adhesive layer is activated with water. Thus, a special paper tape dispenser is required for application. After use, both the packaging box and the tape can be recycled.

“Because of its direct and strong adhesive qualities, paper tape is highly suitable for heavy packaging," says Iatcov. "Another major advantage of paper tape is that it cannot be removed without damaging the box, so it helps safeguard the contents against theft.This makes WAT ideal for high-value or sensitive shipments.” 

Because all corrosion-sensitive parts are polished or galvanized, Cyklop’s customers can enjoy the benefits of longer use and lower maintenance requirements. Customers can expect additional benefits of longer product lifetime and low maintenance.
