Q:

What type of materials are used to manufacture Kraft boxes?

Kraft boxes are constructed from natural brown kraft card. Kraft card is produced using a blend of recycled paper pulp and wood pulp. Kraft card features include high durability, resistance to tearing, and a distinct brown hue.

Overall, Kraft boxes and cartons combine functionality with sustainability, making them an excellent choice for packaging needs.


Q:

What factors determine the shade of the Kraft cardstock?

A:

The texture and brown colour of the Kraft cardstock can vary depending on the type of wood pulp used and the amount of recycled materials utilized in the production process. These colour variations are a natural characteristic of Kraft material and add to its rustic appeal.


Q:

Can you print in full colour on Kraft cartons?

A:

Absolutely. Kraft cartons can be printed in full colour. allowing product manufacturers the flexibility to customize their product boxes and packaging to perfectly match their brand image. However, it is important to note that the appearance of some colours will be affected by the underlying natural brown colour of the Kraft substrate.


Q:

What does the term ‘white undercoat’ refer to when printing on Kraft cardstock?

A:

The term white undercoat refers to the process of printing a layer of white ink as a base before the printing actual design. This undercoat helps to maintain colour accuracy, especially for light or bright colours, which may otherwise be muted by the natural brown background of the Kraft material. This type of printing process ensures that the printed colours are vivid and closest to the original intended shade. The resulting colour density helps to create a striking contrast between the printed design and the brown look of the Kraft.


Q:

Can I opt for a white Kraft substrate, and what benefits does it offer?

A:

Yes. White Kraft card is made by bleaching the pulp fibers to achieve a white or light-coloured finish. White Kraft card provides a cleaner, brighter appearance compared to natural brown Kraft. White kraft substrate is ideal for printing those vibrant colours and designs that require a lighter background.


Q:

Can I design a Kraft carton that incorporates window cutouts?

A:

Yes, it is possible to design and manufacture kraft cartons with window cutouts. The window cutout can be of any size or shape that suits your specific branding requirements. However, it is crucial to carefully consider the design and structural integrity of the carton when incorporating window cutouts.


Q:

Are cardboard Kraft boxes strong enough to be used as primary shipping boxes?

A:

Regular Kraft boxes are not reliable enough to be used as shipping boxes. We strongly recommend using recyclable kraft corrugated cartons as these boxes are manufactured using a combination of Kraft paper and corrugated sheets that provide the additional strength needed to ensure your items arrive safely at the intended destination.

Yes, we offer printing with metallic inks on Kraft boxes. This feature allows you to create an eye-catching look that adds to the visual appeal of your packaging. Metallic inks beautifully accentuate logos, unique details, and design elements, resulting in a premium product appearance.
