According to the Grocery Manufacturer’s Association and the Food Marketing Institute, damaged products cost food manufacturers more than $15 billion a year with damaged packaging contributing to 48 percent of all unsaleable merchandise. The use of cutters and knives is one of the leading causes of damaged packaging and workplace injuries in the industry.
Shurtape FE series handheld tape dispensers feature a durable pistol grip for secure handling, a retractable/pivoting safety blade, visible tape length indicators, and straight-line taping guide marks. The tape dispenser delivers a precise wipe-down force to create a tamper-evident seal.
The FE tape applicator uses patented technology that creates a clean fold along the edges of tape as it is applied, creating an access point along the length of the tape that can be used to remove the tape from the applied surface. These dispensers are available as the FE-2 and FE-3 models for use with 2-inch and 3-inch tapes.
The FT 36 filament tape dispenser is utilized in the sealing of corrugated fiberboard boxes, bundling, L-clipping, C-clipping, and in reinforced packaging. Filament tape is a packaging product with high tensile strength. The FT 36 is designed for long-term repetitive use, with tape length indicators to improve the efficiency of tape use.
According to a spokesperson for Shurtape, “The launch of the FE and FT series tape dispensers represents our continued commitment to innovation in the area of handheld packaging solutions. The new tape dispensers use patented technology to promote faster, safer, and cost-effective packaging.”
