As more of us look for ways to reduce plastic waste and shop responsibly, switching to eco tape is a small change that makes a big difference—especially when it comes to gift wrapping and packaging.
Whether you're posting a parcel or wrapping presents, Party Fox offers an eco-friendly range of plastic-free, biodegradable and recyclable tapes that help you celebrate more sustainably.
What Is Eco Tape?
Eco tape is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastic-based sticky tape. Unlike standard tape, which can’t be recycled and often ends up in landfill, eco tape is made from paper or other biodegradable materials that break down naturally. Many versions are also compostable, plastic-free, and suitable for recycling alongside cardboard and brown kraft packaging.
At Party Fox, we stock a curated range of eco parcel tape options designed to pair perfectly with our eco friendly gift wrap UK collection.
