Sustainable monta biopack®, the Netherlands' first biodegradable adhesive tape
Our monta biopack is the first packaging tape certified by TüV Austria in Europe. The tape is made with a biobased foil and a unique, natural rubber adhesive. The sustainable monta biopack is made from approximately 90% renewable resources and is suitable for industrial composting. This compostability has not come at the expense of strength. Because a single layer of tape already ensures a reliable cardboard closure, the use of materials is minimal. The tape can, after application at room temperature, endure temperatures from -30°C to + 70°C.

Another note on the certified sustainability of monta biopack®
In discussions with customers, we were often asked when we would come up with a biodegradable and compostable alternative. Monta biopack is our answer to this. This sustainable adhesive tape breaks down in industrial composting installations within a few months. To this end, the tape was the first in Europe to be certified by TüV Austria, which has awarded the OK Compost Industrial quality mark. This means that monta biopack meets the strict requirements and standards in the field of compostability, biodegradability, eco-toxicity and material properties. Although it does not have a quality mark for this, the adhesive tape can also be collected separately for plastic recycling or burned in waste-to-energy plants.
The packaging industry can use the tape to seal cardboard boxes or seal biodegradable bags and florists and gardeners to bundle flowers or garden waste. The tape can also be used by green webshops, organic stores or manufacturers of organic products.
With this innovative packaging tape we respond to the growing demand for environmentally friendly alternatives in the packaging market and contribute to reducing the plastic soup.
