Natural Machine-Glazed Kraft papers

Gascogne Papier, a specialist in natural Machine-Glazed (MG) Kraft paper, has worked for many years to develop the most complete range of unbleached brown Kraft papers to meet the most demanding requirements.

Natural brown Kraft paper, which is unbleached and machine glazed (with one smooth and shiny side, one matte side) is aimed at packaging converters & printers as well as coating, laminating & siliconising professionals, and envelope manufacturers. These products are used directly in numerous sectors, such as the metallurgy, aeronautics and carmaking industries.

Its exclusive mechanical strength, flexibility and printability mean that natural MG Kraft paper is adaptable to a wide range of industrial, packaging and processing applications.

For all relevant uses, natural Kraft papers are certified suitable for food contact, thanks to their pure virgin fibres.

Papers offered exclusively on jumbo rolls.

MG NATURAL KRAFT PAPER RANGE

Plain papers

Speciality papers

Light shade papers

DID YOU KNOW?

All our Kraft papers are made of natural and unbleached long virgin fibres to create exceptional, modern and eco-friendly products that are  bio-based, renewable, biodegradable and recyclable.

PLAIN PAPERS

The Plain papers are technical papers with a smooth, even surface, available in weights ranging from 36 to 110g/m² depending on the quality. A favourite among converters which use Kraft paper a coating and laminating base, these papers are also used to produce printed packaging. They also serve to meet especially demanding industrial processes, particularly as painting protection in the carmaking and aeronautics industries, or as interleaving for steel and glass.
