What is kraft paper made of?

  

This paper is made from natural wood fibers. It undergoes sulfate boiling, due to which the material becomes flexible and elastic. When processing raw materials, the peeled trunks are grounded into small chips. Further, the necessary substances are added to convert chips into cellulose mass.

Prepared cellulose is a subject to pressing on special equipment. This contributes to the production of long rolls of kraft paper. The compressed raw material is dried out and cut into sheets of the required size. Polymer additives in the composition of the material make it waterproof and promote moisture absorption.
