This is excellent tape for closing boxes that might carry heavier items. I don’t worry about the bottom coming open when I use this. Well worth the money.
I wanted to get away from plastic products e.g. no plastic drinking straws no plastic bags no plastic take-out and no plastic packing tape for those mail/UPS/FEDEX boxes. This paper tape found at Staples online is great!! Once moistened with a sponge it sticks and dries quickly. It’s tough. I highly recommend it as an alternative to plastic packing tape.
