Electric Water-Activated/Gummed Tape Dispensers

Electric Water-Activated/Gummed Tape Dispensers

Gummed tape dispensers for high volume, rapid shipping environments


Improve your shipping and packaging with our wide variety of water-activated/gummed tape dispensers. An electric water-activated tape dispenser can operate at speeds of 45 inches of tape per second. They are meant for high volume, rapid shipping environments in which you are sealing more than 100 cases per shift.

Water-activated tape, also known as gum tape, can help indicate theft. Once the tape is removed from a carton, the carton cannot be resealed without clear evidence of tampering.

Gummed tape can be used in dusty, dirty, hot or cold environments. It is also recyclable for carton reuse and is safe and easy to open.
