Brown packing tape for everyday cartons
For sealing brown corrugated cartons, use 2 inch (48 mm) brown BOPP packing tape; for cartons above about 15 kg, use 3 inch (72 mm). PackSmith sells brown tape, which many shops call khaki tape, in 1, 2 and 3 inch widths on 65 m and 300 m rolls, and a brown kraft paper tape. We make the brown BOPP tapes in our Jaipur plant. Prices on every listing include 18% GST, delivery is free across India and orders dispatch in 1 to 2 working days.
How to choose brown tape
- 1 inch x 65 m: envelopes, small kraft pouches, files and sweet box lids. Brown Packing Tape 1 inch x 65 m, set of 6.
- 2 inch (48 mm) x 65 m: the standard courier carton tape and the best first order. Brown Packing Tape 48 mm x 65 m, set of 6 or 12.
- 2 inch x 300 m: one roll holds about as much as four and a half 65 m rolls, for packing tables that run all day. Brown Packing Tape 2 inch x 300 m, set of 2.
- 3 inch x 65 m or 300 m: heavy cartons, export boxes and wide flap gaps, sealed with the H pattern on top and bottom. 3 inch x 65 m, set of 4 or 3 inch x 300 m, set of 2.
Buying for a business? Bigger packs and the 300 m rolls cost less per metre than small sets. Check that your dispenser takes a 300 m roll before you order one.
Brown BOPP tape or kraft paper tape?
Brown BOPP tape is the lowest cost per carton and hides scuffs and dust. Kraft Paper Tape 48 mm x 50 m is self-adhesive brown paper, for brands that want paper on a kraft box; it needs no water or machine, but a roll is 50 m against 65 m and costs more. We sell the kraft paper tape. Our guide kraft paper tape vs BOPP tape lays out both sides, and how to tape a shipping carton shows the H-tape method with a weight table.
Printed or white boxes look better with clear tape. PackSmith is run by Jagannath Polymers Pvt Ltd (JPPL), Jaipur, making packaging since 1997, ISO 9001:2015, exporting to 20+ countries. For wholesale quantities, write to us for a quote.

Is brown tape the same as khaki tape?
Yes. In many Indian shops brown packing tape is called khaki tape. Ours is brown BOPP film with adhesive, made in our Jaipur plant.
Which brown tape is best for heavy cartons?
3 inch (72 mm) brown tape, applied in the H pattern on the top and bottom. Most cartons up to about 15 kg are fine with 2 inch.
Brown tape or clear tape: which should I use?
Brown on plain brown cartons, because it looks neat and hides scuffs. Clear on white or printed boxes, so the print stays visible.
Does kraft paper tape need water?
No. Our kraft paper tape is self-adhesive. Tear it by hand or use any standard 2 inch tape dispenser.
