From food to art, how does kraft paper conquer the packaging industry?
On the vast stage of the packaging industry, there is a kind of paper that stands out with its unique charm and excellent performance. It is Kraft Paper, which we often call kraft paper. So, what is so extraordinary about this seemingly ordinary paper? How did it become the green force in the packaging industry?
Kraft Paper, the name comes from the German word ""Kraft"", which means strength or vitality, and aptly describes the toughness and durability of this paper. It is made from kraft softwood pulp through a series of complex chemical pulping processes. This process not only gives kraft paper high strength and tear resistance, but also makes it have good waterproof properties. Kraft paper is widely used in the packaging field. Whether it is food, electronic products or heavy machinery, it can provide solid protection.
The color of kraft paper is usually yellow-brown, which is its original color in the unbleached state. However, with the diversification of market demand, semi-bleached or fully bleached kraft pulp has also come into being. They are light brown, cream or white, providing more choices for packaging design. The quantitative range of kraft paper is generally between 80~120g/m², and there are both roll paper and flat paper to meet different packaging needs.
With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, kraft paper, as a recyclable and environmentally friendly packaging material, has been favored by more and more companies. Compared with plastic packaging, kraft paper has the advantages of being degradable and pollution-free, which can effectively reduce environmental pollution. Many companies have begun to use kraft paper to replace plastic packaging to reduce carbon footprint and achieve sustainable development goals.
The environmental protection characteristics of kraft paper are also reflected in its production process. Kraft paper pulped by the sulfate method has significant advantages in chemical recovery and pulp strength. This process can efficiently degrade and dissolve lignin, leaving most of the cellulose and hemicellulose in the form of intact fibers, thereby improving the yield and quality of pulp. At the same time, the sulfate method also focuses on the recovery and reuse of chemicals, reducing pollution to the environment.
With the continuous advancement of technology and the continuous demand of the market, the application of kraft paper in the packaging industry is also constantly innovating. For example, in the field of food packaging, kraft paper is widely used in takeaway packaging, baked food packaging, etc. due to its good tensile strength and moisture resistance. Its unique texture and grain not only add a natural and healthy image to food, but also enhance the consumer experience.
Kraft paper also shows its unique charm in the fields of art creation and home decoration. Artists often use the texture and grain of kraft paper to create unique calligraphy and painting works. In home decoration, kraft paper is used to make lampshades, wall decorations, etc., adding a warm and natural atmosphere to the home environment.
