Paper strapping is an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic strapping, offering a 100% recyclable solution for securing and bundling packages. It is designed to be compatible with both automatic and semi-automatic strapping machines, as well as friction weld tools, making the transition from plastic strapping seamless.
Key features and benefits of paper strapping include:
- Recyclability and Compostability: Paper strapping is biodegradable and can be recycled with other paper waste, reducing the environmental impact compared to plastic strapping, which often ends up in landfills or pollutes natural environments.
- Ease of Use: It can be quickly and easily applied using existing strapping equipment, requiring less energy to apply than plastic strappings.
- Strength and Durability: Paper strapping has a breaking strain of up to 55kg, making it strong enough for most packaging needs.
- FSC Certification: The paper used in strapping is sustainably sourced and made from recycled material, ensuring environmental responsibility.
- Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications, from pallet strapping to parcel banding.
- Customization: The strapping can be printed with branding to promote an organization’s eco-friendly practices.
- Cleanliness: Smooth paper strapping generates less dust than embossed alternatives, making it a cleaner option for packaging environments.
Paper strapping is available in various sizes, typically including 200/190 core with widths of 15mm, 12mm, 9mm, and 5mm, and lengths ranging from 1800m to 2000m or more. It can be customized with printed text and is ideal for large packaging and dispatch operations, providing a robust and secure method for bundling items in an environmentally friendly way.
