In short

LKJ® BOPP Packaging Tape is a carton sealing tape made from BOPP, biaxially oriented polypropylene, manufactured by Lalit Jain Industries Pvt. Ltd. at its Sonipat and Delhi NCR units in India. Total thickness is 38 to 40 microns, and the tape is produced in light, medium and heavy-duty grades so the film can be matched to carton weight. Standard widths run from 12mm to 96mm, with custom widths on request, and lengths from 50m up to 650m and 1000m long rolls for automatic dispensing machines. Colours include transparent, brown, milky white, red, green, blue and black, which allows colour coding of lines, shifts or destinations. Printed versions carry company logos and standard messages such as Handle with Care, For Export and OK TESTED in up to 5 colours, with reverse printing and half-tone effects available.

What is BOPP tape and what is it used for?

BOPP stands for biaxially oriented polypropylene. The film is stretched in two directions during manufacture, which aligns the polymer and makes the finished backing far stronger and more dimensionally stable than unoriented film of the same thickness. Coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, it becomes the standard carton sealing tape used across packing halls everywhere.

LKJ® BOPP Packaging Tape is suitable for carton box sealing and stationery use, with a total thickness of 38 to 40 microns. It comes in light, medium and heavy-duty grades, so a light carton of empty cartons and a heavy export box do not have to use the same tape.

It is the general-purpose end of the LKJ® specialty tapes range: once a carton needs more than a plain seal, the job moves to a purpose-built grade. If you are not sure which grade that is, choosing a specialty tape by the job routes you from the job on the bench to the right family.

Where a box is overfilled, heavy, or needs a tamper-evident paper seal, a kraft paper tape is often the better answer because it forms a permanent bond that has to be ripped to open. The group makes those too, see the Prateek® Tapes kraft paper tape range for the biodegradable and recyclable option.

How many colours can BOPP tape be printed in?

Company logos and messages can be printed in up to 5 colours. Options for reverse printing and half-tone effects are available, which means a logo with shading or a gradient can be reproduced rather than reduced to flat blocks.

Printed tape is an efficient carrier for general advertising: every carton that leaves the plant travels with the brand on it. Standard message tapes are also stocked, with options including "Handle with Care", "For Export", "OK TESTED", "Fine Quality PVC Pipes" and more, and branding tapes are available for customised requirements.

If you want colour without print, the tape is produced in transparent, brown, milky white, red, green, blue and black, plus custom colours. Many plants use the colour itself as the code, one colour per shift, per line or per destination, so that a mis-sorted carton is visible from across the floor.

Which BOPP tape length should I order for a taping machine?

Hand dispensers normally run short rolls, and the tape is available from 50m upward for that. Automatic carton sealing machines are different: every roll change stops the line, so longer rolls mean fewer stoppages. LKJ® BOPP Packaging Tape is made in long-roll lengths of 650m and 1000m specifically for automatic dispensing machines.

Widths run from 12mm to 96mm as standard, with custom widths on request. Narrow widths suit stationery and light bundling; 48mm and above are the usual carton sealing sizes; the wider widths are used where a single strip has to cover a seam and the flap edges together.

Lalit Jain Industries has been making packaging and industrial tapes since 1987 from two units in Delhi NCR, and is ISO 9001:2015 certified. The wider group packaging range, including printed BOPP, is listed on Prateek® Tapes BOPP packaging tapes.

Where it is used

Typical applications

FMCG and warehouse dispatch

High-volume carton sealing on automatic machines

A dispatch line running automatic case sealers loses time on every roll change. Long-roll lengths of 650m and 1000m are made for exactly this, cutting the number of changeovers per shift. Medium and heavy-duty grades are available where cartons are full and the seal has to survive stacking and handling.

Export packing

Printed message tape for export cartons

Export cartons pass through several hands, and the handling instruction has to be readable at every stop. Standard message tapes carry wording such as "Handle with Care", "For Export" and "OK TESTED" directly on the seal, so the instruction cannot fall off the way a label can. Company logos and messages print in up to 5 colours.

Printing and stationery

Colour-coded and narrow-width rolls

Beyond carton sealing, the tape is suitable for stationery use and is slit from 12mm upward. The colour range, transparent, brown, milky white, red, green, blue and black, lets a plant colour code cartons by line, shift or destination without printing anything, and custom colours are produced on request.

Buyer questions

Frequently asked questions

What does BOPP stand for?

BOPP stands for biaxially oriented polypropylene. The polypropylene film is stretched in two directions during manufacture, which aligns the polymer chains and gives the finished film high tensile strength, clarity and dimensional stability for its thickness. That combination is what makes it the standard backing material for carton sealing tape.

How thick is LKJ® BOPP Packaging Tape?

Total thickness is 38 to 40 microns, measured across the BOPP film backing and the adhesive coating together. The tape is produced in light, medium and heavy-duty grades so the construction can be matched to the weight of the carton and the handling it will see, from light stationery work through to full export cartons.

In how many colours can the tape be printed?

Company logos and messages can be printed in up to 5 colours. Options for reverse printing and half-tone effects are available, so shaded logos and gradients can be reproduced. Standard message tapes are also offered with wording such as "Handle with Care", "For Export" and "OK TESTED", and branding tapes are made for customised requirements.

What roll lengths are available for automatic taping machines?

Lengths run from 50m up to 1000m. The long rolls of 650m and 1000m are made specifically for automatic dispensing machines, where fewer roll changes mean fewer line stoppages per shift. Shorter rolls suit hand dispensers and lower volume packing benches. Tell us the machine and we will confirm the suitable length.

What widths and colours can I order?

Standard widths are 12mm to 96mm, with custom widths on request. Colours include transparent, brown, milky white, red, green, blue and black, plus custom colours. Many plants use colour as a code, one colour per line, shift or destination, so a mis-sorted carton is easy to spot without anyone having to read a label.

Is BOPP tape suitable for heavy or overfilled cartons?

Heavy-duty grades are available and cover a great deal of carton sealing work. For heavy packaging that would otherwise need metal or polypropylene strapping, LKJ® Cross Filament Tape is the stronger option: its film backing is reinforced with woven glass fibres and it is designed for applications requiring a high breaking strength, including palletising and strapping.
