What is Pure Kraft?
Pure Kraft is a strong brown paper or board made with a natural kraft finish on both sides.
It is commonly used for industrial packaging, wrapping, arts and crafts, and general-purpose applications where strength, flexibility, and a natural look are needed.
Pure Kraft is available in a range of thicknesses, from lighter paper grades through to heavier board grades, making it suitable for both reels, rolls, and sheet formats.
Key Benefits and Performance
Pure Kraft is chosen for its strength, durability, and simple natural appearance.
It has a tough fibre structure that makes it useful for packaging and protective applications, while still being easy to cut, fold, wrap, glue, and convert.
- Natural brown kraft finish for a simple, practical look.
- Available in 50 gsm to 300 gsm for lighter paper use through to heavier board applications.
- Good tear strength for wrapping, packaging, and protection.
- Flexible across formats including sheets, reels, and rolls.
- Easy to cut, fold, crease, wrap, and glue for packaging and craft work.
- Recyclable paper-based material depending on inks, tapes, coatings, and adhesives used.
Common Uses and Limitations
Pure Kraft is commonly used for industrial packaging, wrapping, interleaving, void fill, craft projects, model making, protective layers, and general board applications.
It is a good choice when you need a strong natural kraft material without a white face or coated surface.
- Industrial packaging
- Wrapping paper
- Reels and rolls
- Arts and crafts
- Sheet board applications
- Protective layers and interleaving
- General-purpose packaging
Pure Kraft is not usually suited to wet, greasy, chilled, or outdoor use unless an extra coating or barrier is added.
Because it has a natural brown surface, printed colours can appear more muted than they would on white or coated board.
