Prevents Broke Contamination from Non-Repulpable Splice Material
Both the adhesive and the liner of Tape R5348 are repulpable, which prevents broke contamination caused by non-repulpable fibers. This helps save labor costs and increases the value of waste paper. There is also no need to remove the splice from waste, which saves time during production. The adhesive and backing meet or exceed TAPPI UM-213, procedure A, and are FDA compliant to 21 CFR 176.170.
