Better Packages BP333 Plus – The Proven Manual Water-Activated Tape Dispenser
The BP333 Plus is the dependable, no-nonsense tape dispenser customers choose when they want long service life without the cost or complexity of an electric machine. With no electronics or motors to fail, it delivers consistent performance for small to mid-volume pack stations and sits in the value sweet spot for businesses upgrading from handheld plastic tape to water-activated tape. If your shipping volume eventually grows, the next logical step is the electric Better Pack 555e. Until then, the 333 provides the strength, control, and reliability expected from a professional gummed tape dispenser.

Compatible Tapes
The BP333 works with all standard water-activated tapes from 1.5 to 3 inches wide, reinforced or non-reinforced. If you need tape, we recommend:
Considering a Tape Heater?
If you operate in a cold warehouse or want faster surface tack on heavy reinforced tapes, the BP333 can also be purchased in a factory heater-equipped version. See the BP333 with Heater if you need improved adhesion in cooler environments.

If you want the machine to ship with a free maintenance kit, be sure to select the maintenance kit option before adding the BP333 to your cart. The kit includes a bottle of Dawn dish soap for cleaning the moistening brushes, a bottle of Zoom Spout oil for lightly oiling the back of the cutting blade, a small paint brush for brushing away tape dust, and a wire brush for scrubbing under the heater to prevent adhesive buildup. These simple tools make routine maintenance fast and help extend the life of the dispenser.
