Store Age : The demand of brown kraft paper bags are growing and here is why.

Kraft paper bags have become one of the most sought-after choice of bags due to its great durability and quality and its commitment to the environment, mainly due to its recyclable and biodegradable properties.

Kraft paper bags generally consist of 2 types:

1) Recycled Kraft Paper

Produced chemically using recycled pulp as raw material, the inks and any other residues are chemically removed to free the paper fibers. In simpler terms, recycled paper is made from used paper and paper products and reproduced to form Recycled Kraft Paper

2) Virgin Kraft Paper

Produced mechanically using virgin pulp as its raw material, virgin paper does not contain any recycled elements/contents. The production processes virgin pulp bales which produce various types of high quality paper namely, long-fiber virgin pulp and short-fiber virgin pulp.

Difference Between Virgin Pulp and Recycled Pulp

1) Virgin Pulp

Virgin fibers create softer and more durable paper with higher absorbency rates, better ink colour and retention. Using high quality products leads to waste reduction as consumers can make do without using lots of paper towels. This also contributes to huge cost saving in the long run

2) Recycled Pulp

Recycled fibers can only be reused up to 7 times. Overused paper fibers can cause inconsistencies. Low quality and poor performance as they are shorter in fiber length, making paper less absorbent and more prone to breakage.
