Box - Carton - Tape Dispensers:

McDonald Company Machines, the innovative leader in water activated tape dispensers for carton sealing, offer several Phoenix models to suit every application.

Phoenix over the years revolutionized the way tape machines are used.

By adding the capabilities of an ink jet printer to the advantages of water-activated tape, McDonald Company Machines proved again to be the innovative leader. With the ability to print messages directly onto your water activated tape, you could strengthen your brand and eliminate the use of labels, pens and markers.  Tape could be customized with your company logo, SKU numbers or other important handling messages.

The original Phoenix Electronic models:

The Introduction of the E1

Since 1996 McDonald Co has been revolutionizing the industry with new tape dispensing technology.  Innovative designs like The Phoenix E-1 eliminated over half the wear parts found on the leading dispensers of that time.

Hands Free E2

The Phoenix E-2 came equipped with a photoelectric sensor that allowed for hands free tape on demand. The shipping operator preset a length of tape with the touch of 2 buttons. Once set, the operator did not have to touch the machine again allowing for consistent package sealing quickly with no waste.

No Power, No Problem with the Phoenix Manual:

M1 Manual Machines

Water activated [WAT] or gummed tape is the best carton sealing method available today. When properly applied with Phoenix Tape Dispensers, WAT is your best bet to prevent theft and shipping damage due to inferior seal. We have a variety of tape dispensers to meet the needs of enterprises large and small. For applications without electrical power, or smaller packaging operations, the manual machines are cost effective.
