The packaged food market is a trillion-dollar industry, and it continues to grow. Fast, convenient, and on-the-go snacking is just one of the applications. Cereals, milk, nuts, juice, and canned fruit have one thing in common: they come in various types of packaging closed with food-safe adhesive solutions.
All different food types – from pantry basics, fresh dairy products, and snacks to beverages and canned goods – have unique characteristics that are reflected in their versatile packaging and sealing that our tesa® tape range provides. Plastic bags, cans, beverage cartons, and their transport have diverse adhesive needs that we strive to meet with our tesa® products. Reseal your packaging to avoid food waste, prevent leakages with airtight seams, and carry your products home with reliable, cushioned handles for heavy lifting.
Our adhesive solutions are as diverse as the food packaging market. Ripping packages open and picking food off the floor are a thing of the past. Our easy-to-open and resealable solutions reduce food waste and keep food fresh for longer by keeping your goods inside the packaging – where they belong. Innovative knifeless carton opening makes the customer’s life easy and avoids frustration from damaged goods. What is in it for you? A happy customer equals strong brand loyalty.
The inner packaging is the lifeblood of the food manufacturing industry. It shows the contents, brand, and ingredients and is the premier selling point for the customer. Convenient packaging and handling influence this buying decision.
Our food packaging adhesive tapes play a substantial role in providing your customers with their end products. Single- and double-sided resealable bag closures are a food-safe and convenient way to handle household basics and treats. Our spool-wound adhesive solutions allow rapid integration into your production line and are an effective add-on to your existing production equipment.
This powerful innovation is a complete solution with the tesa® 6081 dispenser (opens in a new window or tab). This single-sided high-tack tape with good shear strength does not leave any residue, and the finger lift strip allows easy opening and closing for extending the product’s lifecycle.
Our double-sided tapes guarantee long-lasting freshness through tight closure. With an extended fingertip opening and no residues left on the packaging, this solution is ideal for indirect food contact.

Buying in bulk is ideal for many people. But getting the shopping home can often be challenging for customers. Ripped-off handles and ultra-strong packaging that just cannot be opened make life harder than it should be.
A six-pack of bottles, full and sealed cartons, and even frozen goods pose a challenge for our industrial food packaging adhesives. We took it on successfully, for every stakeholder in the value chain, from manufacturer to customer.
Manual and automatic carton sealing ensure that your products reach their destination in prime condition. Complete with the matching tesa® 6400 dispenser (opens in a new window or tab), you will make your carton boxes ready for the road. The PVC and PP films are made to resist short-term shocks while unwinding easily and are the perfect team for your shipping needs. Our carton sealing tapes range from tapes for conventional use to our full range of filmic and paper-based CST for more sustainability in the value chains.
