TESA TAPE: Adhesive Solution for High-Speed Splicing
The innovation reportedly reduces waste, performs well on recycled films and non-woven materials, and will help increase productivity.
To meet the growing need for an adhesive that simplifies the process of splicing flexible packaging films at high-speeds while improving efficiencies, tesa tape has introduced tesa® 51948 EasySplice FilmLine Black X. Splicing high-slip films at high speeds can be difficult, at best, for flexographic or rotogravure printers. Traditional solutions like liquid glues and additional tapes can be complicated and cumbersome and can limit the ability to splice at speed.
According to Chuck Doyle, sales director, Print & Paper, tesa tape North America, this innovation was a product of customer collaboration. It’s designed to address an important packaging industry challenge–splicing high-slip films such as bread bags and toilet paper wraps–at high speeds.
