MOPP Strapping and Filament PSA Tapes
After carton sealing, packages in the palletizing and shipment process need extra protection to remain stable and safe. Strapping and filament pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes secure and bundle items for convenient, reliable shipping and storage.
MOPP strapping tapes bundle packages and stabilize pallets. These low-tack acrylic adhesive tapes reduce package movement and damage in transit without ripping the packaging when removed. Filament PSA tapes are hot melt rubber adhesive tapes reinforced with fiberglass. These tapes are ideal for heavy-duty and high-tensile packaging and palletizing uses. Both tapes have handheld dispensers for easy application.

MOPP Strapping and Filament PSA Tapes: Protection in Bulk
Normal wear and tear from transit in and outside the warehouse can cause serious damage to products that aren’t secured properly, especially if they are delicate or heavy. Carton sealing is often only enough protection for non-bundled or palletized packages.
MOPP strapping and filament PSA tapes secure pallets and bundled packages for safe bulk shipping and storage. Adherex’s strapping and filament tapes are tear-resistant, high-tensile tapes designed to protect pallets and bundles. Strapping tapes’ low-tack acrylic adhesive binds packages without leaving damage, while filament tapes are heavy-duty carton sealing tapes that can also be used for high-tensile strapping.
Strapping Tapes vs. Filament Tapes
MOPP Strapping PSA Tapes:
MOPP strapping PSA tapes are strong polypropylene tapes with acrylic adhesive used to strap pallets and bundle packages.
Due to their high tensile strength, strapping tapes are stretch and tear-resistant, keeping packages stable on pallets during storage and shipping. The acrylic adhesive’s low tack allows the tape to separate easily from packaging without damage.
Adherex’s tapes are available in economy and standard grades for general-use strapping, as well as special-order options for custom color, grade, and tape size.
Fiberglass-Reinforced Filament PSA Tapes:
Fiberglass-reinforced filament PSA tapes are high-tensile tapes for heavy-duty carton sealing and strapping.
They are reinforced with fiberglass strips that protect the tape from tears and damage. Filament tapes use a hot melt rubber adhesive for a strong seal, which is useful in both high-load package sealing and pallet strapping.
Adherex’s fiberglass-reinforced filament tapes are available in economy and standard grades, as well as high-performance adhesive options for carton sealing. Special orders for color, size, and performance grade are also available for filament PSA tapes.

Understanding the Shelf Life of Adhesive Tapes in Industrial Settings
Understanding the shelf life of adhesive tapes requires some consideration and management on the part of distributors, shippers, and manufacturers. Industrial buyers may purchase dozens or even hundreds of rolls of tape at once and must think about how to best manage shelf life. Custom tapes and other specialty packaging products can have long lead times due to the manufacturing process, which further complicates the shelf life of adhesive tapes.
