Philmo Inc. has designed the FIRST “Earth Friendly” option to conventional Duct Tape. This duct tape is made from
oxo-biodegradable film that actually degrades 100% back into organic material within approximately fifteen years from completed life cycle. This tape is also made with cloth that possesses 38% polyester fibers made from recycled material, such as discarded plastic bottles. The total core the tape is wound on is made from 100% recycled paper, ensuring no trees are destroyed in order to produce this product. It has the same appearance, construction and durability of the non “green” products and will not begin to degrade until the one year from application. This is similar to most duct tapes on the market today and is, like all duct tape, designed for temporary repairs.
The service life of this product is similar to any other conventional tape. ECO-Tape will work for one year before starting to break down into organic material. This is similar to any duct tape that is exposed to the elements. This duct tape is intended to be an “Earth Friendly” option to the standard duct tapes used today.
