ECO-SJ replaces conventional BOPP tape with all-pulp kraft paper and a water-based acrylic adhesive — fully recyclable, VOC-free, and backed by Korea's Ministry of Environment Eco-Label, ISO 9001, and ISO 14001.
Nine reasons exporters are switching from plastic-film tape to ECO-SJ kraft paper tape.
Certified under Korea's official Eco-Label program (Criteria No. EL-103) — a third-party government assessment, not a self-declared claim.
Fully paper-based with no plastic film backing, so sealed cartons can be discarded together with the box as ordinary paper waste.
56% solid-content water-based acrylic adhesive delivers strong initial tack and durable, long-term holding strength on corrugated cartons.
The kraft paper surface accepts pen, shipping labels, and invoices applied directly on top — streamlining warehouse and logistics workflows.
Manufactured from all-pulp virgin kraft paper with no plastic film, supporting circular-economy and sustainable packaging initiatives.
A solvent-free silicone release coating ensures clean, smooth unwind and consistent dispensing without adhesive transfer or residue.
115–120 μm combined paper, primer, and adhesive construction gives tear resistance suited to demanding export shipping conditions.
Available in 50 mm, 70 mm, and 100 mm widths, and 40 m, 50 m, 100 m, and 500 m roll lengths for manual and automated lines.
A 76 mm core inner diameter ensures compatibility with most industrial and hand-held tape dispensers used worldwide.
EL-103 is registered under Korea Eco-Label Certificate No. 29389, issued by the Korea Environmental Industry & Technology Institute (KEITI).
