1.What is water-activated tape and how does it work?

Water-activated tape (WAT), also known as gummed tape, has a plant-based adhesive that activates only when moistened. It bonds permanently to cardboard after application using the included sponge.

2.What material is this tape made from?

This tape is made from reinforced kraft paper (white or brown) with embedded fibers for added strength. It is plastic-free and biodegradable.

3.Do I need special tools to use this tape?

Each roll comes with a free sponge, allowing you to easily activate the adhesive manually with water.
