This innovative tape offers the same strong sealing capabilities as traditional packaging tapes while being designed to break down after use, significantly reducing environmental impact. With customizable printing options for logos and branding, this BOPP packaging tape not only secures your packages but also turns every shipment into a marketing opportunity.
Backed by Jiangsu Gelly Adhesive Material Technology Co., Ltd and our 30 years of adhesive expertise, our Custom Degradable Packaging Tape is the ultimate eco-friendly alternative to conventional plastic tapes. Engineered for brands committed to sustainability and ESG goals, this tape features a specialized plant fiber/extract backing coated with an environmental water-based acrylic adhesive. Unlike standard BOPP tapes that persist in landfills for centuries, our degradable tape is designed to break down naturally when buried in soil within approximately 180 days. It delivers the reliable sealing performance of traditional tapes while significantly reducing your carbon footprint and plastic waste.
Accelerated Soil Decomposition: Made from plant extracts and natural fibers, the tape backing naturally degrades in soil environments within approximately 180 days (6 months), drastically reducing landfill waste.
100% Eco-Friendly Water-Based Adhesive: Utilizes a premium acrylic water-based glue that is non-toxic, solvent-free, and low-odor, ensuring safety for users and compliance with strict global environmental standards.
Strong Adhesive Power: Despite its eco-friendly composition, it offers excellent initial tack (23#) and lasting holding power (48+ hours) to ensure secure sealing of corrugated cartons and recycled packaging.
High Tensile Strength: The reinforced plant fiber substrate provides substantial stress resistance during transportation and handling, performing comparably to conventional 50μm BOPP tapes.
Customizable & Brand-Friendly: The natural matte finish of the plant-based backing is highly printable, allowing for custom logo and eco-messaging (e.g., "100% Recyclable", "Compostable") to enhance your brand's green image.
Sustainable E-commerce & Retail: Ideal for eco-conscious brands, organic product lines, and sustainable fashion retailers looking to provide a 100% plastic-free unboxing experience.
Green Supply Chain & Logistics: Helps large corporations and 3PL fulfillment centers meet their corporate ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) plastic-reduction targets.
Paper & Cardboard Recycling: Because it is plant-based and uses water-based adhesive, it does not contaminate the paper recycling stream like traditional plastic BOPP tapes do.
Food & Beverage Packaging: The non-toxic, solvent-free formulation makes it safe for sealing outer cartons of food, beverages, and sensitive consumer goods.

Our AdvantagesOur Advantages
A Strong and Established Tape Manufacturer




Unlike conventional BOPP plastic tapes that take hundreds of years to break down, our degradable tape is made from plant extracts and plant fiber. When disposed of and buried in soil (exposed to natural microorganisms and moisture), the substrate will begin to significantly decompose within approximately 180 days (6 months). Please note that it will not degrade while sitting on a shelf or in a dry warehouse; it requires soil/microbial contact to activate the degradation process.
Yes. We use a high-performance water-based acrylic adhesive that provides an initial tack of 23# and a holding power of over 48 hours. With a total thickness of 52μm (30μm plant fiber + 22μm adhesive), it offers tensile strength and carton-sealing security comparable to standard heavy-duty BOPP tapes, ensuring your packages remain sealed during transit.
One of the biggest issues with standard plastic BOPP tape is that it contaminates cardboard during the paper recycling pulping process. Because our tape utilizes a plant-based substrate and water-based adhesive, it is highly compatible with paper recycling streams and does not cause the same contamination issues, making it a favorite for green supply chains.
Absolutely. The natural matte finish of the plant fiber backing provides an excellent surface for custom printing. We use eco-friendly water-based inks to print your company logo, sustainability messages (e.g., "100% Degradable", "Plastic-Free Packaging"), and handling instructions, helping you communicate your brand's environmental commitment directly to the end consumer.
