What is a PP packaging tape? PP, also known as polypropylene, is also known as strapping. A packaging tape made from polypropylene as the main raw material and extruded through unidirectional stretching, followed by the production of hot treated hair care blue. Due to the bundling, fixing, and lifting effects of the packaging belt, it can generally be used for all box sealing bundling, glass, pipes, fruits, etc.

So, as a purchaser, how do you choose packaging straps? PP packaging straps can actually be divided into many types, including machine and hand packaging straps according to their usage methods; Machine packaging belts are divided into fully automatic and semi-automatic packaging belts; According to the material, it is divided into ordinary packaging tape, lightweight packaging tape, and transparent packaging tape. With so many types of packaging straps, how can we choose what we want? So we need to start from the following aspects:

1、 First, confirm the usage method

The mode of use is generally divided into machine use and manual use, and the machine use mode is divided into Semiautomaton and full-automatic mode. If it is done by hand, you only need to choose a regular hand strap with a thickness of 1.0mm or more; If it is used by machine, it is necessary to further confirm whether it is used by Semiautomaton or full-automatic machine. If it is used by Semiautomaton machine, it is only necessary to select a general packing belt; If it is a fully automatic machine, it is necessary to choose lightweight and transparent packaging belts with better quality, because fully automatic machines have higher requirements for packaging belts, and these two types of packaging belts have better load-bearing than general packaging belts.

2、 Then we need to confirm the budget for purchasing the packaging belt

The price range between different packaging tapes is quite large, and the prices of different materials vary. We will provide you with suitable packaging tapes based on your usage and budget. The prices of lightweight and transparent packaging tapes in general environmentally friendly materials are relatively high, especially fully transparent packaging tapes. The tensile force of this packaging tape is much higher than that of ordinary packaging tapes. Generally, the outer cardboard boxes of household appliances are packaged with fully transparent packaging tapes.

3、 Select the specification of the packaging tape

1. The specifications of hand packaging tape are generally 15mm wide and 1.0mm-1.3mm thick, making it a relatively inexpensive packaging tape; The width of the universal packaging tape is 9-13mm, and the thickness is 0.8-1.0mm; The recommended specifications for fully automatic machine belts are 6-13mm in width and 0.6-0.9mm in thickness

2. Weight: Generally 8.5 or 10.5KG gross weight, 0.5KG paper core

3. Length: The specification, material, and weight of the packaging tape can all affect its length. The length of a hand used packaging tape is 500 meters, the length of a universal packaging tape is generally around 1000 meters, and the length of a transparent packaging tape is generally around 2500 meters.

4. Tension: The specifications and materials of the packaging belt will affect the tension. The manual packaging belt is 50KG, the universal packaging belt is 70-100KG, the lightweight belt is 100-120KG, and the transparent packaging belt is 120-150KG.

4、 Confirm the weight of the packaged goods

Different types of packaging belts have different tensile and load-bearing capabilities. Before choosing a packaging belt, it is also necessary to confirm the weight of the goods you are packaging and whether you need to lift them.

5、 Do you want to print the packaging tape

The packaging tape can be printed with a logo for promotional purposes. Due to the material and surface texture of the packaging tape, the printed content should not be too complex, and the printing color should be within two colors.
