Fiber-based material company Ahlstrom has released MasterTape Cristal, a paper-based transparent tape which is recyclable and compostable. Ahlstrom says that 80% of pressure-sensitive adhesive packaging tape is plastic. MasterTape Cristal is as strong and transparent as traditional plastic tape but with the added benefit of meeting sustainability demands. The tape can be used for gift wrapping, packaging or in offices.
