Recycotape® – for active environmental protection through recycling
Ordinary packaging tapes made from polypropylene and PVC cause about 125,000 tonnes of non-recyclable waste in Europe each year. With RECYCOTAPE®, we offer you an economic, environmentally friendly alternative for making recyclable adhesive packaging tapes. RECYCOTAPE® is the most innovative backing paper for making recyclable tapes. The main raw material is an un-impregnated Kraft paper made from unbleached or chlorine-free (ECF) wood pulps.
