Kraft Bubble Paper Making Machine
The SD-PB800 turns plain kraft paper into embossed bubble paper in a single pass through a pair of vertical upper and lower concave-convex rollers. The machine applies a semi-circular ball pattern, wave pattern, three-dimensional hexagon, or custom design to create a cushioning surface that replaces plastic bubble wrap. It runs paper from 60 gsm and operates at speeds up to 50 m/min, making it suitable for in-house production of protective packaging without relying on third-party suppliers.
- Produces a paper-based cushioning material that replaces plastic bubble wrap without requiring changes to the packing line
- Single-pass embossing and rewinding eliminates intermediate handling and reduces labor time
- Runs minimum 60 gsm kraft paper, allowing use of standard paper grades from local suppliers
- Adjustable pressure via screw or reducer pressurization ensures consistent pattern depth across different paper weights
- Custom roller patterns can be made to match specific product protection or branding needs
Key Benefits
- Produces a paper-based cushioning material that replaces plastic bubble wrap without requiring changes to the packing line
- Single-pass embossing and rewinding eliminates intermediate handling and reduces labor time
- Runs minimum 60 gsm kraft paper, allowing use of standard paper grades from local suppliers
- Adjustable pressure via screw or reducer pressurization ensures consistent pattern depth across different paper weights

Application Scenarios
- E-commerce fulfilment centres producing their own paper bubble wrap to reduce plastic use and shipping costs
- Packaging converters adding a paper cushioning line to complement existing plastic or foam products
- Fruit, electronics, and ceramics packers needing a non-scratch, recyclable cushioning layer
- Retail brands requiring branded packaging with a textured, premium unboxing feel
- Exporters in regions with plastic packaging restrictions who need a compliant, low-cost alternative
Who It Is For
- In-house packaging teams replacing imported plastic bubble wrap with in-house production
- Packaging converters expanding into paper-based protective materials
- E-commerce operators handling high volumes of fragile items with consistent protection
- Brands that want to reduce plastic in their packaging without sacrificing cushioning performance
- Distributors supplying paper bubble wrap to markets with environmental regulations
Problems It Solves
- Plastic bubble wrap is being restricted or taxed in key markets, and buyers need a compliant paper alternative
- Buying finished paper bubble wrap from third parties removes control over cost, lead time, and material consistency
- Plastic wrap can damage delicate surfaces like polished metal, glass, or painted finishes
- Manual embossing or hand-pressed paper gives inconsistent pattern depth and unreliable cushioning
- Lack of local production capacity leads to long lead times and high shipping costs for imported wrap

Compared With the Alternatives
Buying finished paper bubble wrap rolls
In-house production removes the supplier margin but requires holding kraft roll stock and an operator
Plastic bubble wrap film lines
Paper bubble wrap is recyclable and needs no resin, though it does not provide moisture barrier protection
Manual embossing with hand rollers
The machine ensures consistent pattern depth and repeatable roll lengths that hand work cannot achieve
Honeycomb paper making machines
This machine produces a surface cushion with a bubble texture; honeycomb machines produce a three-dimensional grid for different impact absorption
Use Guide
- Adjust the embossing pressure using the screw or reducer mechanism based on paper thickness
- Inspect a sample for consistent pattern depth and correct embossing before releasing production
Questions About This Machine
What paper weight can the machine run?
Minimum 60 gsm kraft paper. The same setup also handles soft white liner paper and recycled kraft in that range.
What patterns can be produced?
Semi-circular ball, wave, three-dimensional hexagon, four-pointed star, and custom patterns are available.
What power supply does it need?
380 V 3 phase as standard. The machine can be built to your local voltage and phase on request.
Can it produce sheets instead of rolls?
Roll to sheet cutting is an optional add-on. It can also be matched with our paper wrapper for sheet output.
Do you support OEM orders?
Yes. OEM badging, manual language, and destination voltage are configured at order. Send your requirement over WhatsApp for a quote.
