Have you ever come across a product in the store that appears to have been repackaged? If you have, you probably do what most people do – grab a different box. Admittedly, we tend to avoid packaging that appears different from the rest, thinking there may possibly be something wrong with the product.

Reworking, or repackaging, happens for a variety of reasons, whether it’s a last-minute quality check, or a pop-open that has occurred in the plant.

Here are a few common reasons for reworking and repackaging boxes:

• Quality analysis
• Quality control
• In-line failure

Traditional tape is often used for reworks, but Adhesive Squares double-sided tape with pressure-sensitive adhesives offers many advantages compared to traditional tape. One of the biggest advantages is that this type of double-sided tape provides an instant, invisible bond. Unlike a box that has been repackaged with tape, customers are unable to tell a reworked box from a regular box since it appears identical.

Our line of Adhesive Squares double-sided tape makes it easier to perform timely reworks in your facility. It also makes it more less noticeable that repackaging has taken place once the product reaches the shelves.
