Picture a carton sealing system that not only optimizes your packaging line but also eliminates 4,000 pounds of tape waste annually on average.* That’s what ShurSEAL® Packaging Solutions brings to the table. With strong adhesive tape, smarter application and innovative technology, ShurSEAL transforms case sealing from an operational necessity into a sustainability strategy.
Excessive tape waste adds an unnecessary strain on the environment—and adds to expenses. ShurSEAL removes the need for extra layers to compensate for weak carton seals and faulty tape applications, improving your line’s sustainable impact.
Here’s How We Make It Happen:
Rightsized Tape Application
Efficient packaging starts with using only what you need. ShurSEAL optimizes automated tape application by rightsizing tab lengths and enabling the use of narrower or thinner, strong adhesive tape without compromising seal integrity. Every box gets just the right amount of tape—nothing more, nothing less.
By reducing excess material, you’re lowering operational costs while sending less waste to the landfill. This simple innovation has a big impact, especially when multiplied across thousands of cartons.
Good To The Core® Technology
Stub rolls—those half-used rolls of tape that aren’t usable all the way down to the paper tape roll core—are a major source of waste. ShurSEAL’s Good To The Core® Technology ensures you can use every last inch of tape available.
This feature keeps tape running smoothly off the roll, without tearing or jamming, until it’s fully depleted. This means fewer stub rolls cluttering your workspace, a reduction in discarded materials and a significantly lower waste footprint!
ShurSEAL Increases Wipe Down Pressure by 71%
It’s about pressure with purpose. Wipe-down force refers to the pressure applied by the automated tape applicator to make sure the tape’s adhesive fully bonds with the carton. ShurSEAL’s multiple wipe-down points maximize this contact, which reduces the need for excessive tape by ensuring every inch is fully utilized. This creates a stronger, more reliable seal but also leads to less re-taping and no need for extra layers. It’s a small adjustment per carton, but creates meaningful impact when annualized across total output.
PrimeAlert™ Tape Management System
To be sustainable, you must use resources wisely. PrimeAlert minimizes waste by ensuring your packaging line runs efficiently and avoids common tape issues like faulty seals. By catching problems early, this tape management system reduces tape overuse and prevents unnecessary do-overs or discarded cartons caused by sealing errors.
PrimeAlert integrates smoothly into existing machinery, helping extend the life of your equipment and reduce the environmental footprint associated with frequent replacements or upgrades.
Folded Edge® Technology
ShurSEAL offers a simple solution with wide-reaching benefits: tamper-evident, knifeless seals, which can be opened simply by grasping the tape edges, that hold stronger with less material. That’s better for your bottom line, better for your team’s safety and better for the planet. ShurSEAL’s Folded Edge Technology strengthens the tape’s edge, increasing the relative energy needed to break the tape by 25%. This added strength reduces the risk of the tape being nicked or broken, improving both security and sustainability. Secure seals mean few breakages; fewer breakages mean less wasted tape; less wasted tape means greater environmental responsibility.
