BOPP TAPES

BOPP technology is versatile and used in a variety of packaging tapes.

BOPP tapes are among the most widely used in the shipping and inventory management industries. They are known for their strong, secure seals and resistance to extreme temperatures. But why are BOPP tapes so strong, and what uses are they best suited for?

What is BOPP?

BOPP stands for Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene. BOPP film is stretched flat (that’s the “biaxially-oriented” part); polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer, which means that it is malleable at certain temperatures but returns to a solid form when it is cooled down.

BOPP film is commonly used in a variety of packaging applications; you can find it on anything from snack food packaging to soft drink labels. This same BOPP film technology is also used in a variety of the most popular packaging tapes.
