Cardboard box cracking and damage during transportation almost always originates from the adhesive tape, not the corrugated cardboard itself. This research dictates the design logic of our water-activated kraft paper tape products, with each parameter corresponding to a suitable weight failure mode, from the 126 g/m² JLN-3140 light-duty tape to the 176 g/m² KN-37120 heavy-duty tape. &nbs...
Every carton sealing tape ships with a technical data sheet, and every TDS looks reassuringly precise: peel adhesion 42 oz/in, shear 50+ hours, tensile 124 lbs/in. The problem is that these numbers are only comparable when you know what each test actually measures — and most tape failures in the field trace back to specifying the wrong property, not a defective product. What a TDS is —...
