Why choose kraft label paper

  • Rustic, natural eco aesthetic

    The unbleached brown fibre reads as honest and low-processed without any printed effect.

  • Writable and stampable

    Batch codes, dates and signatures can be added by pen or stamp after application.

  • Popular for organic brands

    A default choice for organic food, craft beverage and artisanal ranges across export markets.

  • Prints well with flexo and offset

    Opaque and dark inks reproduce cleanly; white ink or a knock-out panel lifts light artwork.

Typical applications

Frequently asked questions

What is kraft label paper material?

Kraft label paper is an uncoated facestock of about 70–90 gsm made from strong kraft pulp, supplied in natural brown or white with a visible fibrous texture. It gives labels a rustic, hand-made character while remaining writable and easy to die-cut, so small-batch brands get an artisanal look without extra finishing steps.

It is popular for preserves, honey and condiment jars, craft beverages, soaps and candles, bakery packaging, and gift or subscription boxes; converters run it for short and medium runs with one- and two-colour designs.

Because the brown ground shifts printed colours, plan spot colours or a white underprint, and test barcode contrast before committing. Pick adhesive for glass, tin or board and consider service conditions: kraft is uncoated, so fridge condensation, oils and long wet storage can stain or weaken it — confirm with sample testing.

What is kraft label paper used for?

Organic, craft and artisanal product labels where a natural, eco-style brown look reinforces the brand.

Does kraft label paper come in white?

Yes. Besides natural brown, a white kraft is available for a lighter natural look.

Is kraft label paper recyclable?

Kraft paper facestock is fibre-based; for a fully design-for-recycling label pair it with a suitable adhesive — see our sustainable range.

Can kraft paper be used for wet labels?

No. It is a dry-use paper; for waterproof natural looks consider a textured film or PP synthetic.

Which print methods work best on kraft label paper?

Kraft label paper runs well on flexo and offset presses; because it is uncoated, dark or metallic inks and a white ink under-print reproduce most cleanly against the natural brown fibre. Digital and letterpress printing are also compatible — confirm your press and ink system for the best colour match.

How should kraft label rolls be stored before use?

Store kraft label rolls flat or on end in their packaging, in a dry area away from direct sunlight and temperature swings, to keep the fibre flat and the adhesive performing as specified. Exact recommended storage duration and conditions are confirmed on the technical datasheet for your chosen adhesive.

Can I request a free sample of kraft label paper?

Yes. We can send a free sample of brown or white kraft label paper in your preferred adhesive and liner, plus the datasheet, so you can test print contrast and adhesion on your own jars or bottles before placing a production order.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

Stocked grades start from 1 jumbo roll. Custom constructions or coatings typically start from 3,000–5,000 square meters, depending on complexity.

What adhesive and liner options are available?

Permanent, removable, deep-freeze, high-tack or wash-off adhesive (water-based or hot-melt), on white glassine, PET or CCK/kraft liner — matched to your surface and environment.
