About Custom Kraft Paper

The natural paper behind the craft look

Kraft paper is the warm brown, unbleached paper that signals natural, artisan, and eco the instant a customer sees it. Brands use it to wrap, line, and fill, and as a low-cost surface that still carries a logo. It takes ink, prints in earthy tones, and recycles cleanly. We print kraft paper from a 5,000-sheet MOQ with no setup or die charges.

Natural or bleached, sheets or rolls

  • Natural brown kraft for the craft and eco cue; bleached near-white kraft for brighter, more accurate print.
  • Sheets for counter wrapping and rolls for cutting to size and lining.
  • Pairs with kraft boxes for a consistent look across your packaging.

Where it fits

Bakeries, delis, and artisan food for wrapping and lining; retail for void fill and gift wrap; and kraft-based brands everywhere. Part of the printed paper range; for grease-prone food see greaseproof and butcher paper.

Why US brands choose us for custom kraft paper

Custom Box Printing manufactures custom kraft paper from our US production facility, with free standard shipping anywhere in the contiguous United States and a 7–10 business day turnaround. We've printed custom kraft paper for solo founders launching their first product line, growing direct-to-consumer brands placing 5,000-unit runs, and established retail brands with 50,000+ unit production schedules — and we treat all three the same: low MOQs (5,000-unit runs), free design support, no setup or die-plate charges, and a 3D digital mockup before anything goes to press.

Every custom kraft paper order includes free in-house dieline and artwork support — our US-based designers will polish your existing files, or build a custom dieline from scratch to fit your exact product dimensions. We send you a 3D mockup to confirm look and proportions before production. For color-critical work, request a physical sample free — let’s talk about a customized sample so you can confirm the look before a full run.

Materials, print, and finish options

Kraft paper comes in a few weights and finishes that change how it prints and feels. 30# natural kraft is the standard lightweight wrap most bakeries and delis use. 40# kraft is sturdier — better for shipping wraps and gift packaging. White / bleached kraft prints brighter and shows colors more accurately than natural kraft, which has a brown / amber base tone that shifts color. For wrapping food we recommend natural kraft printed flexographically on the outer face.

Available finishes include:

  • Lamination: Gloss, matte, soft-touch, or velvet finish for a premium hand-feel.
  • Foil stamping: Gold, silver, copper, or custom foil colors for high-visibility brand marks.
  • Embossing & debossing: Tactile raised or recessed surface effects on logo or key artwork.
  • Spot UV: Selective gloss coating that creates contrast against matte areas.
  • Eco-friendly options: Recycled kraft, widely recyclable paperboard and water-based inks.
  • Compliance: soy-based inks; child-resistant-style constructions for CBD/cannabis on request.

If you're not sure which combination will work best for your custom kraft paper, mention it in your quote request — our team will recommend the right material, print spec, and finish based on your product, budget, and brand positioning.

Natural (brown) kraft is the unbleached pulp — it has the warm earthy tone customers associate with bakeries, artisan food, and eco brands. Bleached kraft is the same fiber whitened to a near-white sheet — print colors come out brighter and more accurate, but it loses the natural / craft visual cue. Choose based on whether your brand wants 'natural' or 'clean' as the visual story.

Yes, but with caveats. The brown base of natural kraft will shift any photograph toward warm/amber tones. For full-color photo print, use bleached kraft. For 1-2 color logo + brand pattern on natural kraft, the warm tones work in your favor.
