Kraft Paper Market: Global Research Report, Industry Trends, Demand Outlook, & Forecast 2017-2025

Market Outlook 

Kraft paper is a paper or paperboard that has a more high strength and high tear resistance. It is largely used in the packaging industry and is made from wood pulp or recycling materials and adding chemicals to increase its fiber’s strength, thickness, and durability while maintaining the light weighted property. The growing environmental concerns to use recyclable and degradable packages have led to a rise in the demand for Kraft papers. Kraft papers have a rising trend of manufacturing it through natural recycling which has though lesser strength than virgin natural craft paper, but it is more eco-friendly and still has enough strength to fill void applications. The growing packaging industry and paper industry is largely driving the growth of the global kraft paper market.

Moreover, there is a huge demand for printed craft paper, as the packaging of products such as sandwiches or burgers or shoes also has the company name and logo printed that makes it appealing to the customers. Kraft papers are available in different forms as per the business requirement, thus ranging from kraft paper rolls to kraft paper sheets. Moreover, for packaging the metal objects, poly coated kraft paper is largely used. Further, the government of various countries has mandated to use paper as a packaging substitute; kraft paper where strength is required which has provided the manufacturers an advantageous position and earn higher profits.
