CREPE SEWING TAPE
Bag closing paper crepe tape is a non-adhesive, crinkled, strip of paper that is folded over the top of a paper bag before it is sewn closed. Crepe tape is used to better seal the bag; preventing product (i.e. powers) from leaking out, environmental contamination, &/or insect infestation. Crepe tape is often used in place of a filler cord.
Paper crepe tape is available in 1”-3” widths in either plain or wax coated (for a better seal). Beside the natural beige color, crepe tape can be: white (bleached), black, red, green, blue, or yellow. Crepe tape is usually manufactured from recycled paper, but is also available made from virgin (natural) products.
