[BOPP packing tape ](https://aabind.com/blog/water-based-vs-hotmelt-vs-solvent-bopp-tape-guide/)is the industry standard for securing shipments and sealing cartons. It is manufactured using biaxially oriented polypropylene film, which provides excellent clarity and strength. This film is coated with high-performance acrylic adhesives that ensure a reliable bond on various surfaces, including corrugated cardboard and plastic. In the UAE logistics and manufacturing sectors, reliable packaging is essential for protecting goods during transit. [ AAB Industries ](https://aabind.com/) provides premium BOPP solutions that offer high resistance to splitting and tearing. Our tapes are suitable for both manual application and automatic case sealing machines. ## What is BOPP Packing Tape? BOPP stands for Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene. This means the plastic film has been stretched in two directions to increase its strength and clarity. When combined with a modified acrylic or solvent adhesive, it creates a pressure-sensitive tape that is ideal for bundling and packaging. It is widely preferred due to its cost-effectiveness and durability. ## Key Features of BOPP Packing Tape High tensile strength to prevent breakage during high stress applications Excellent clarity for use over labels and printed information Resistant to environmental factors, including UV light and moisture Available in various thicknesses and adhesive types for specific needs ## Industrial Applications **Logistics and Shipping ** Warehouses and shipping hubs use BOPP packing tape for high volume carton sealing. It provides a secure closure that withstands the rigours of local and international transport. **Manufacturing and Bundling** Manufacturers rely on this tape for bundling products and securing pallet loads. The strong backing ensures that items stay together during movement within the facility. **Branding and Security** Printed BOPP tape allows companies to display their logos and handling instructions. This enhances brand visibility. It also adds a layer of communication with the receiver, as special messages are also being printed on tapes. ## Types of BOPP Packing Tape ** Water-Based BOPP Tape** This variant uses a modified acrylic emulsion adhesive. It is an environmentally friendly option that provides excellent performance for general industrial use and standard carton sealing. **Solvent-Based BOPP Tape** The solvent-based variant offers increased peel strength and tensile strength. It is designed for more demanding applications that require a stronger initial tack. **Printed BOPP Tape** Printed tape combines the strength of our standard 45 micron tape with customisable branding. It provides an excellent seal while improving security through tamper evidence. **Colored BOPP Tape ** Modified acrylic emulsion adhesive on BOPP film, available in multiple colours for colour-coded packing, branding and warehouse sorting. ## Technical Documentation and Storage Accessing detailed product information is essential for ensuring compliance with your packaging standards. We provide comprehensive PSTC and GB method data sheets for all our BOPP tapes. Proper storage is critical to maintaining the adhesive quality. Tape should be stored in a cool and dry sheltered area. It is important to avoid storage in direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the acrylic emulsion. The application surface must be dry and clean and free of dust or oil and other contaminants to ensure maximum adhesion. For the best results, the tape should be used within 12 months of delivery. ## Water-Based BOPP Tape **Physical Property** - Tape Thickness - Backing Material - Film Thickness - Adhesive Type - Adhesive Thickness - Adhesion to Steel - Adhesion to Fibre - Tack (Ball #14) - Holding Power to Steel - Temperature Range **Test Method** - PSTC-133 - – - PSTC-133 - – - PSTC-133 - PSTC-101 - PSTC-101 - PSTC-6 - PSTC-107 - – **Value ** - 38 Microns (minimum) - BOPP Film - 23 Microns (minimum) - Modified Acrylic Emulsion - 15 Microns (minimum) - ≥5.0 N/25mm - ≥5.0 N/25mm - ≤40 mm - ≥25 Hours - -10°C to 60°C [ Download Water-Based BOPP Tape Technical Sheet ](https://aabind.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/TECHNICAL-DATA_-OPP-WATER-BASED-PACKAGING-TAPE.pdf) ## Solvent-Based BOPP Tape **Product Code** - Tape Thickness - Backing Material - Adhesive Type - 180° Peel Strength - Tensile Strength - Elongation **Test Method** - GB/7125-1999 - - - - - GB-2792-1998 - GB/7753-1987 - ASTM D-1000 **Value** - 55±2 Microns - BOPP Film - Solvent Acrylic Emulsion - ≥6 N/IN - ≥60 N/IN - 100% [ Download Solvent Based BOPP Tape Technical Sheet ](https://aabind.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/TECHNICAL-DATA_-OPP-SOLVENT-BASED-PACKAGING-TAPE.pdf) ## Printed BOPP Tape **Product Code** - Tape Thickness - Backing Material - Film Thickness - Adhesive Type - Adhesive Thickness - Adhesion to Steel - Adhesion to Fibre - Tack (Ball #14) - Holding Power to Steel - Holding Power to Fibre **Test Method** - PSTC-133 - - - PSTC-133 - - - PSTC-133 - PSTC-101 - PSTC-101 - PSTC-6 - PSTC-107 - PSTC-107 **Value ** - 45 - 50 Microns - BOPP Film - 23/25 Microns - Modified Acrylic Emulsion - 22/20 Microns - ≥5.0 N/25mm - ≥6.5 / Fibre tear - ≤40 mm - ≥60 Hours - ≥70 Hours [ Download Printed BOPP Tape Technical Sheet ](https://aabind.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/TECHNICAL-DATA_-820S-45-PRINTED-BOPP-TAPE.pdf) ## Why Choose AAB Industries ![Quality.](https://aabind.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Quality.png) Consistent product quality that meets international standards ![Supply chain management.](https://aabind.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Supply-chain-management.png) Reliable supply chain and stock availability across the UAE ![Formulate.](https://aabind.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Formulate.png) Formulated specifically for industrial and commercial use ![Competitive pricing.](https://aabind.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Save-money.png) Competitive pricing models for high-volume B2B orders ## Request a Quote for BOPP Packing Tape AAB Industries is a leading manufacturer and supplier of BOPP packing tape across the UAE.
