US-based Intertape Polymer Group®, IPG®, a manufacturer of packaging and protective solutions, has introduced its new 170e, water-based, acrylic, pressure sensitive, carton sealing tape – designed with 30% recycled film.
This composition is a significant step in reducing the consumption of new, virgin, raw materials, thereby providing an overall lower carbon footprint. Meanwhile, the new 170e maintains the performance characteristics and reliability of IPG’s carton closure product line, and its superior tack, UV resistance and broad application temperature performance mirror those of its non-recycled content counterparts, making it suitable for both manual and automated applications.

The new 170e is one of several product launches that support and contribute to IPG’s sustainability and circularity goals, as the company continues to embrace sustainability as a key strategy for it achieving its vision and mission, as well as a primary driver of operational excellence.
Kelsey Redmon, product manager at IPG, said: “Sustainability is a core value at IPG and this new carton closure product demonstrates our dedication to develop innovative solutions that help our customers ‘go green’ without spending additional money.”
