A new generation eco-friendly adhesive tape
TIOPR (formerly BIOTAPE) is a single-sided adhesive tape made of PLA (polylactic acid), a biopolymer derived from renewable resources such as corn starch. It offers a credible and effective alternative to traditional packaging tapes made from petroleum-based plastics (PVC, PP, PET).
Designed with sustainable development in mind, this tape is part of a CSR approach by significantly reducing the environmental impact of packaging operations, while maintaining high mechanical and adhesive performance.
A high-performance solution for packaging applications
Unlike some environmentally friendly solutions with limited performance, TIOPR offers an excellent compromise between sustainability and industrial efficiency.
- immediate and powerful tack
- Reliable carton closure
- compatibility with high speeds
Its water-based adhesive allows for rapid bonding while ensuring safer use for operators and the environment.
A sustainable alternative to traditional plastic adhesives
The PLA used in the TIOPR is compostable under industrial conditions and is made from renewable raw materials.
- CO₂ emissions reduction
- absence of solvents
- limiting the use of fossil resources
This ribbon fits perfectly into companies’ carbon footprint reduction and eco-design strategies.
