Finnish fibre-based products manufacturer Ahlstrom-Munksjö has launched MasterTape Pack Green, designed to serve as a sustainable alternative for plastic pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) packaging tape backings.

MasterTape Pack Green is made from responsibly sourced and renewable wood pulp, which is certified as per the standards of the Forest Stewardship Council.

It is available in several variants and basis weights, including saturated tape backings, saturated and release coated tape backings with different levels of releases.

Furthermore, MasterTape Pack Green can also be customised based on customer requirements.

Packaging Tape business development manager Sebastien Ferrari said: “We encourage global industry stakeholders to consider fibre and paper-based alternatives for applications that today use plastic and other non-renewable materials.

“MasterTape Pack Green is the latest innovation in our unique offering of sustainable tape backings that work well with a high number of PSA packaging tape backing applications.”

The new offering forms part of the company’s MasterTape Pack product family for PSA packaging tape applications.

MasterTape Pack features a complete range of products available from saturation base papers to saturated and release coated papers.

The superior mechanical properties for shock-resistant tapes make the MasterTape Pack range suitable for light, medium and even heavy-duty packaging, said the company.

Ahlstrom-Munksjö’s product portfolio includes filter materials, release liners, food and beverage processing materials, abrasive and tape backings, decor papers, electrotechnical paper, glass fibre materials, medical fibre materials, diagnostics and energy storage solutions.
