PRODUCT FEATURES
BENEFITS
_____________________________
__________________________________________________________
Exceptional StrengthExcellent stiffness, tear and internal strength properties make
for extremely durable packaging. This translates into enhanced
product protection and reduced damage.
Low-Density, High-YieldUsing less fiber for a given caliper and an output that generates
more cartons per ton provides our customer with a very efficient
and cost-effective packaging option.
Product UniformityCaliper, basis weight and moisture uniformity promote excellent
performance and optimize productivity. Controlled curl and
coefficient of friction ensure consistent handling on automated
equipment.
Moisture ResistanceOutstanding moisture resistance and wet durability make Kraftpak
the ideal substrate for many challenging packaging applications.
Clean, Consistent AppearanceState-of-the-art stock preparation system yields a clean, uniform,
natural appearance. Kraftpak top surface (L*a*b) targets (60.0,
7.0, 18.0).
SustainabilitySource reduction (low density-high strength allows significant
package weight reduction), biodegradable and recyclable,
renewable resource and traceable fibers
