- Filmoplast P: tissue carrier acid-free mending tape
- Filmoplast P1: translucent paper carrier
- Filmoplast P90: paper carrier with gummed adhesive that is a water activated acrylic dispersion
- Filmoplast R: Japanese mulberry paper carrier buffered with magnesium carbonate. It has an acrylic adhesive.
Applications
- Invisible dry mending of paper documents
- Acid-free mending tape for reparing joints or damaged edges
Risks
Some adhesives may yellow and become insoluble with time.

- Filmoplast P: pH = 8.8 (unaged tape) and 8.1 (aged tape)
- Filmoplast P90: pH = 9.1 (unaged tape) and 7.8 (aged tape)
- Filmoplast R: pH = 8.9 (unaged tape)
