How Duct Tape Is Made

Manufacturing of duct tape is a complicated industrial process that combines cloth, natural rubber adhesive and a polyethylene coating.

The cloth gives it strength and “tearability”.

The natural rubber adhesive creates a strong, long lasting bond.

The polyethylene coating makes the tape water resistant and gives it its color and shiny appearance.
