Tidal tape is made up of 85% post-consumer waste plastic and is the ideal solution for businesses looking to avoid the Plastic Packaging Tax.
Plastic Tax is a new tax that applies to plastic packaging that is produced in, or imported into, the UK that does not contain at least 30% recycled plastic. There will be a charge at a rate of £200 per tonne if the plastic packaging doesn’t contain the required amount.
Tidal Tape has been developed to help businesses overcome the limitations that this new tax brings by offering a product that is high performance whilst avoiding any additional costs. Switching from a traditional acrylic packing tape to Tidal Tape will help ensure your packaging is smarter for both you and the planet.
