Water Activated Tape for secure U.S. Packaging & Fulfillment
Water-activated tape (WAT), also known as gummed paper tape, is a high-performance carton sealing solution designed for modern U.S. warehouses, fulfilment centers, and eCommerce operations. Unlike traditional plastic tape, water-activated tape forms a permanent bond with corrugated cardboard, creating a tamper-evident seal that improves package security, reduces damage, and enhances overall shipping reliability.
Designed to optimize modern fulfilment operations, water-activated tape delivers both performance and cost savings. A single strip is often enough to securely seal a carton reducing material usage and improving packing speed compared to traditional tape.
By eliminating the need for multiple tape strips, businesses can increase productivity and reduce labor time across packing lines. In addition, paper based WAT is recyclable and made from renewable materials, making it a more sustainable alternative to plastic tape while supporting environmentally conscious shipping practices.
