Recycled kraft paper is a sustainable option for packaging, shipping materials, gift wrap and more according to GreenBlue's Sustainable Packaging Coalition. Made from 100% recycled content, it reduces waste and environmental impact compared to virgin paper products. The classic brown color evokes a natural, rustic aesthetic that many consumers and businesses find appealing.
The 88gsm weight specification we sell makes this kraft paper roll ideal for a variety of applications while being lightweight for cost-effective shipping. Heavier weights would provide more durability but also more material usage and carbon footprint.
Some packaging suppliers recommend using kraft paper for items or shipments weighing under 5 kg's to balance protection and sustainability. It provides good cushioning and can be used to fill empty spaces without excess material.
The availability in various widths allows for custom sizing to different sized products or boxes. Longer roll lengths mean less waste from excess paper pieces.
