Honeycomb paper is a lightweight, strong kraft packaging material formed with hexagonal cells. It is used for inner and outer packaging, as a shock absorbent, as a shield and even as pallets.

Kraft paper is a tough, water-resistant packaging paper with high tensile strength and a basis weight range from 80 g/m2 to 120 g/m2.

Honeycomb paper is an eco-friendly and cost effective alternative to plastic bubble wrap cushioning, and it behaves differently on the packing bench.

Fanfold kraft is produced by perforating a continuous kraft web and folding it into a stacked pile, which is then fed into a dispenser at the packing bench.

Three paper bubble machines cover sample work, roll production and sheet production. The choice comes down to output format, width and roll handling.

Kraft paper cushion is made of recycled paper fibres, crumpled or folded into layers that create air pockets, and used as a protective layer for fragile items in shipping and storage.

Plastic restriction programmes are reshaping protective packaging specifications, and converters are the ones who have to supply the replacement.

Emerson showed the honeycomb paper forming machine at Chinaplas 2023, held in halls 1 to 20 from 17 to 20 April 2023.
