Food-safe tapes for the food industry and food production

Certified tape as part of food safety and audit preparation

Food-safe tapes play an important role in the food industry. From joining packaging films to temporary repairs and marking applications, the use of tape must also comply with applicable food safety requirements. Discover how Supertape's certified SuperFood tapes contribute to safe production processes and effective preparation for food safety audits.

Certified food-safe tape as part of your food safety audit

Self-adhesive tape is used in many areas of the food industry and food production: for splicing packaging films, core starting, end tabbing, temporary repairs, sampling, bundling and identification. These applications are driving increasing demand for food-safe tapes suitable for use in professional food production environments.

During certification processes and audits, food manufacturers increasingly need to demonstrate that auxiliary materials, such as industrial tape, comply with their food safety management systems. This is why more companies are choosing food-safe tapes that not only deliver reliable technical performance but whose suitability for direct or indirect food contact can also be documented.

Why use food-safe tape in a food production environment?

Standard industrial tape may offer excellent adhesion, but that does not automatically make it suitable for use in a food production environment.

For Quality, Food Safety and Production teams, another question is becoming increasingly important. It is not just about adhesive strength and processing performance, but also about food contact, traceability, production conditions and available compliance documentation.

SuperFood: food-safe industrial tapes from Supertape

Supertape develops and manufactures single-sided and double-sided food-safe industrial tapes for applications in food production, the food industry and food packaging. The SuperFood range includes food-safe splicing tape, core starting tape, end tabbing tape and food-safe duct tape.

The tapes are made from food-safe components, are suitable for direct and indirect food contact in accordance with EC 1935/2004 and are manufactured in an FSSC 22000/ISO 9001-certified environment.

This enables food manufacturers to combine technical performance with product and compliance information that supports the use of self-adhesive tape within their quality management systems and audit preparation.

Food-safe splicing tape for packaging film

When changing packaging film rolls, two film webs need to be joined quickly and reliably. Supertape offers both single-sided and double-sided food-safe splicing tapes for use on industrial packaging lines.

Applications: Splicing of packaging film, roll changes, film production and industrial packaging lines in the food industry.

Products: SF31514 single-sided splicing tape and SF32301 double-sided splicing tape.

Food-safe core starting tape and end tabbing tape

Tape is also used at the beginning and end of a roll. During core starting, the material is attached to the core. End tabbing secures the end of the roll for safe handling, storage or further processing.

By using food-safe double-sided tape, this process step can also be consciously incorporated into the food safety policy of a food manufacturer or packaging company.

Product: SF32501 double-sided core starting & end tabbing tape.

Food-safe duct tape for production and maintenance

Duct tape is a practical tool at many production facilities. However, in the food industry, it is important to consciously select a suitable tape, even for temporary applications. Food-safe duct tape helps ensure that repair, sampling and identification applications are better aligned with the food safety requirements within the facility.

Supertape's food-safe duct tape can be used for temporary repairs, sampling from big bags, bundling, identification and marking.

Product: SF31201 food-safe duct tape.

One range of food-safe tapes, multiple applications

Splicing → Core starting → End tabbing → Repair → Sampling → Bundling → Identification

With the SuperFood range, Supertape can support multiple tape applications within a single food production environment. From food-safe splicing tape to food-safe duct tape, tape becomes a controlled part of the overall production and quality management system.

Food-safe tape and audit preparation

For Quality Managers and Food Safety teams, it is not just about the technical performance of a tape. Its composition, suitability for food contact, production conditions, traceability and available documentation are also important.

Supertape therefore supports food manufacturers with both the right tape solution and relevant product and compliance information. This helps ensure that the use of tape is properly documented within food safety procedures, quality management systems and audits.

Which food-safe tapes do you use in your production process?

Tape is often used in multiple areas without these applications being centrally documented.

Supertape helps food manufacturers assess their current tape usage and identify where a food-safe solution would better meet production, quality and audit requirements.
