Now even the heaviest packages can withstand rough handling. Our Scotch Heavy Duty Shipping Packaging Tape holds strong on all box types, including 100% recycled boxes. It's even guaranteed to stay sealed.* The strong, tough, solvent free hot melt adhesive locks in your heavy duty contents and locks out everything else. You don’t need layers of tape to get the job done—just one strip at a time—so you save time. Your heavy packages can bear the weight and stay sealed through it all with Scotch Heavy Duty packaging tape.
No matter how strong the tape, an improper packing job can put your items in jeopardy. These tips will help protect against accidents and indelicate handling.
If you’re sending liquids, make sure that jar or bottle lids are sealed with Scotch Packaging Tape. Then place containers into a plastic bag - should anything happen during shipping, this will help contain any potential mess.
Especially fragile items can be protected by cushioning a smaller box inside of a larger one.
Center fragile items in the middle of the box, and allow for at least 2" of padding around items and 2" of space between items. Scotch Cushion Wrap can help cushion the items from possible damage while filling empty space. It also helps with shock absorption during transport.
If you are shipping paper or cloth items, wrap them with plastic first to guard against spills and wet shipping conditions.
