Polypropylene tape and PVC tape might look similar, but they are made differently and have different properties that make them appropriate for different situations. PVC tape is a more heavy-duty style tape that is good to use with heavier shipments. PVC tape also features a more flat finish when compared to polypropylene.

Polypropylene tape is much more popular and less expensive to manufacture, so it is a cheaper and more readily available packing tape. This is good for lighter shipments and has a more shiny finish when compared to PVC. It is less elastic than PVC tape as well.

Kraft tape is a paper tape that features very good strength, which is why it is used often for heavier shipments, especially when the recipients are commercial or industrial customers. Kraft tape is a water-activated tape and provides a very strong seal on a variety of cardboard and corrugated packages. Kraft tape is also tamper-evident because it does not come off easily and when removed makes it obvious that tampering has happened.
