There are many uses for PVC bag sealing tape namely that in the food industry. If you notice the next time you shop at a grocery store or a farmer’s market, the bags they seal your food in such as breads, fish, cheese and nuts are done so with PVC tape. The most commonly used color is red but some other options are clear, white, yellow, green and dark blue. In other words, it is a fast and economical way to seal plastic bags used most commonly to bind produce bags in order to close them. How it works is the PVC tape wraps around the neck of the bag, closing the contents inside.
Since it comes in many colors, companies can use it for color-coding, identification, security as well as inventory controls applications aside from sealing.
An example of how companies can be using them for color-coding can be for bundling wires together to know which bunch belongs where. This can even touch upon identification where, for example, red tape can mean a certain food combo and workers will know exactly what the that means.
As for security, it is fairly impossible for someone to unstick PVC tape once the adhesive sides are stuck to one another. Therefore, this product will prevent tampering and pilferage of your products due to it being quite obvious if someone has gone through the package. The bag sealed with the PVC tape will be damaged if someone tried to get through it. That is why this product will provide added security to the contents of your items.
To be able to use them, there are special dispensers to be used to seal the bags. These are available in economy or deluxe stainless steel. They are fairly similar in design with the main difference being the materials they are constructed with. The latter is more durable in it’s construction and should last longer than the economy model.
PVC bag sealing tape is a great product that can be used by many companies in the food and other industry for a variety of reasons.
