Recipe Box Tamper Evident Box Tape

Sealing meal-kit cartons so the customer receives a box that visibly has not been opened since it was packed.

A recipe box passes through a packing line, a carrier network and often a doorstep wait. Standard packaging tape can be cut, lifted and re-taped without leaving anything obvious behind.

Tamper evident box tape voids when it is lifted or cut and re-laid, so the carton itself carries the record. Numbered variants tie a specific box to a specific order.

100% paper tamper evident secure packaging tape applied to a carton seam

What interference should reveal

Sealed at the packhouse, opened later

Sealed on the line

Tape is applied over the carton seam by hand, dispenser or case sealer.

Interference attempted

Lifting or cutting and re-laying the tape releases the void message along the seam.

Evidence remains

The void pattern stays on the tape and the carton, so an opened box cannot be re-presented as sealed.

Real evidence

On the roll, on the box, voided

Application and integration

Fitting it to the packing line

Hand or dispenser

Tape is supplied in hand-dispenser formats for lower volumes, with the length and width chosen for your carton size so one strip covers the seam.

Automated case sealers

For machine application, confirm the sealer make and model, core size and roll diameter. Formats are then supplied to run without changing the machine set-up.

Chilled packing

Meal kits are often packed cold. Confirm carton surface, board finish and pack temperature so the adhesive is specified for the condition it is applied in.

Numbering

Where each box must be traceable, tape and labels can carry consecutive numbers or barcodes recorded against the order.
