We have been a partner to the paper industry for more than 40 years, which has helped us develop our self adhesive repulpable tapes and created tailored products aswell as our tesa EasySplice® and tesa CaRes® - Calcium Resistant, repulpable tapes. We have been able to offer paper producers all over the world highly innovative and cost saving adhesive tape solutions allowing measurable improvements and efficiencies in every production step.
The increasing usage of calcium carbonate (CaCo3) as a filler or coating pigment in paper production generally proves a considerable challenge for repulpable adhesive tapes.
Calcium ions dissolve and migrate into the adhesive over time. As a resulting in the adhesive hardening causing a weaker bond and an increase in mill splices breaking at the printer or paper converter
Our tesa CaRes® tapes overcome this by offering fully repulpable calcium-resistant, and permanent adhesive. They keep their well balanced properties until the paper reel is processed by your customer.
