71% More Wipe-Down Pressure to Keep Case Seals Intact

Stronger Case Seals Start With Better Adhesion

Poor case seals are a common issue on packaging lines. When tape fails to adhere properly to the carton surface, the result is often case rework, product damage, contamination risks, and even opportunities for theft or tampering. All of these problems can negatively impact your bottom line and increase total cost per case.

That’s why ShurSEAL® is engineered to deliver consistent, tamper-evident seals that stay secure from the moment a carton leaves your line until it reaches its final destination. By combining high-performance tape with innovative wipe-down technology, ShurSEAL ensures a stronger bond on every application, even on under-filled or inconsistent cartons.

High-Performance Tape + Reliable Application = A Better Seal

ShurSEAL works by optimizing two critical elements of the sealing process:

  • HP Series packaging tape delivers 2.5× more adhesion than standard carton sealing tapes, creating an instant, permanent bond that resists shifting, lifting and contamination.
  • Innovative tape heads deliver greater wipe-down force through multiple contact points, enabling up to 90% adhesive utilization for a more complete, uniform seal.

This powerful combination means more of the tape’s adhesive actually contacts the carton, which is the key to seal integrity. With proper application, the tape forms a tighter bond that requires 3× more force to open, improving tamper evidence and theft deterrence.

A Stronger Seal Also Unlocks Sustainability Benefits

Seal strength isn’t the only advantage. Because ShurSEAL ensures better adhesion and adhesive utilization, many operations can right-size their tape specs without compromising performance. This allows manufacturers to:

  • Reduce material usage through source reduction
  • Lower tape consumption per carton
  • Support sustainability goals while maintaining or improving line efficiency

The Result: More Throughput, Fewer Problems

With ShurSEAL, you can count on consistent, high-quality seals that support productivity and protect what matters most – your product. Fewer reworks, fewer failures in transit and fewer worries about tampering all add up to a more efficient, reliable packaging process.
