Gum Dispenser

We sell and service Better Packages, Cyklop, Marsh, and Phoenix gummed tape dispensers.

Gummed tape machines dispense water activated Kraft plain and reinforced gummed tape to seal cartons. The tape will create a permanent bond with the carton fibers and keep your products well protected in transit.

When compared with plastic tapes, gummed tape only requires one strip on the top and bottom flaps. Standard plastic tape is only 2" wide and packers will generally use two or more strips on each the top and bottom flaps of the box causing a doubling of the cost of labor, and an increase in overall tape expenditure.

Gummed tape is creates a natural bond with cartons. The gummed adhesives absorbs dust, etc. and still bonds to the fibers. Gummed tape can also be used to cover old labels and markings to minimize confusing shipping companies.

Most manufacturers recommend replacing worn moistening brushes every 2-3 years. If your packers are excessively rubbing the tape to get it to stick, first clean them and rinse out the tank. Check to make sure the heater is working. If you don't have one, consider adding one for winter time. If the tape continues to requires extra time to get it to stick, we recommend replacing the brush(es). Find your manufacturer and model under our parts, click here.
