Choose tape with appropriate width and viscosity: Choose scotch tape with appropriate width according to the size and weight of the express package. Small packages can use narrow width tape, while large or heavy packages need wide tape to ensure a firm seal. At the same time, choose the appropriate viscosity according to the material of the package. For example, high viscosity tape can be selected for smooth surfaces, and moderate viscosity can be used for packages with rough materials. This can not only ensure the packaging effect, but also avoid excessive use of tape and improve the efficiency of use.
Optimize packaging methods: Use reasonable packaging techniques. For carton packaging, you can first apply tape evenly along the edge of the carton opening to ensure a tight seal, and then reinforce the edges of the carton to enhance the overall stability. For irregularly shaped items, you can first wrap them with cushioning materials such as bubble film, and then fix them with tape to avoid direct wrapping of tape and cause waste, thereby improving the efficiency of packaging.
Reduce the amount of tape used: Try innovative packaging structure design to reduce dependence on tape. For example, use the folding structure of the carton itself for interlocking, and only use tape to fix it at key locations. You can also use tape-free packaging methods, such as zipper cartons, to reduce the use of tape from the source, which is in line with the concept of environmental protection.
Use degradable tape: Traditional scotch tape is mostly non-degradable material, which pollutes the environment. Choose degradable scotch tape, such as bio-based degradable tape, which can decompose quickly in the natural environment, reduce the long-term impact of waste on the environment, and achieve environmental protection goals.
Strengthen employee training: For express packaging personnel, strengthening training is crucial. The training content includes the correct use of tape, how to judge the amount of tape used, and the best packaging method for different types of packages. Skilled operation can reduce unnecessary waste of tape and improve packaging efficiency.
Tape recycling: Establish a tape recycling mechanism. Set up special recycling boxes at express outlets to collect the remaining tape after users unpack. After cleaning, disinfection and other treatments, the longer tape can be rewound and used for some internal packaging with low requirements to improve resource utilization.
Promote environmental protection concepts: Promote the importance of environmentally friendly packaging to express industry practitioners and consumers. Consumers are encouraged to properly store the remaining tape or give it to express delivery outlets for recycling after receiving the parcel. At the same time, express delivery companies are encouraged to actively adopt environmentally friendly packaging methods and jointly promote the efficient and environmentally friendly application of scotch tape in express packaging.
