9Cube6 Paper Packing Tape, Brown Kraft 50mmx50M, Strong Recyclable Heavy-Duty Parcel Packaging for Moving House and Box, Shipping Sealing Adhesive Sticky Roll

I really like this tape, it sticks really well to cardboard. We use it to retape up cardboard boxes to ship pottery in and its really secure. As we're retaping old boxes, sometimes theres old bits of sticky/packaging tape on the boxes already, and it doesn't stick well to this. But for normal plain cardboard or paper bags its brilliant

I was moving and taping up dozens of boxes. This is soooooooo much better than nasty plastic tape.Easy to find the end, strong yet you can tear it off with your hands so no hunting for scissors all the time.You can write on it and somehow you can even unpeel it and re stick it and it still works.Totally recommend this stuff.My tip - look in the recycling bins, get all the old boxes out and tape them back up. I moved house and the only packing supplies I bought were several roles of this stuff. Perfect and eco as well.

We’ve been packing up our possessions in readiness for moving house and ran out of parcel tape to seal the boxes. We’d found that the usual brown tape was too thin, split easily and didn’t stick well, so I decided to order some of this. It arrived late, due to having been despatched using Royal Mail, which was an annoyance, but the product is far superior to the usual brown acrylic tape. It is more expensive admittedly, but it adheres better, more environmentally friendly and doesn’t split so readily. I’ll be using this for wrapping parcels, even after our house move is completed.

I've nused a few different brands before and this is easily the best. The tape is stronger. It sticks better both to the packaging and to itself. It is a lot more secure than other tapes. It even feels better

My previous tape is on the left, nice and smooth. This tape (on the right) has a texture but it does seem to be stronger adhesive and I think I prefer the matt finish

Wanting to be more environmentally friendly, I purchased the Kraft Paper Packaging tape to package up my parcels, better than using plastic tape I thought; for the best part, this was a good decision.Value for money isn't bad, but as with all things that are better for us or the environment there is a trade off with it being more expensive or less cost effective. We all want to eat organic food for example, but the price is prohibitive in many cases. We want to be environmentally friendly but cannot always afford the environmentally choice.The trade off here is that the tape is, as you would expect, more expensive than plastic packaging tape, but it also has less of it on a reel. That is not a problem as you know the cost when you make the decision to buy, it is just an observation.This tape has many advantages, it adheres well, it can be torn off the real without looking for scissors, and it is better for the environment. The biggest problem that I find is that Sellotape just won't stick to it. I use the Sellotape branded tape because it normally offers good adhesion, but not to the Kraft tape.If you have a small parcel, packaged with the Kraft tape, or a package that you have had to put a lot of tape on and cant find a tape free area of the package big enough for an address label, or delivery label (such as Hermes) then sellotaping one to the tape is impossible as it just won't stick, the only way round this is to use the Kraft tape to stick the label on. For me, whilst I do love the tape, this problem would prevent me from buying this again.

I usually buy the 20mm rolls, but this time I bought this 50mm stuff. It's certainly not the same. Much thinner. Does seem to stick OK, but I'm not 100% on it.

Sticks well, good alternative to plastic tape although less cost effective
