Why brands choose kraft with us
Kraft is not the absence of design — it is a design choice. We help you make it deliberately, from stock selection to the final print.
- Real kraft options. Natural, bleached and white-top kraft — virgin or recycled — specified to your look and budget.
- Print that pops on brown. Opaque white ink underlays make full-color graphics vivid on natural kraft.
- One-color economy. Black or white single-color print for a sharp look at the lowest unit cost.
- Strength without the bulk. Kraft's natural tear resistance suits mailers and shipping boxes.
- Eco story built in. Recycled content and plastic-free builds, with recyclability messaging printed on the box.
- The full range of structures. Mailers, folding cartons, rigid wraps and shipping boxes — all in kraft.
- Consistent color run to run. We retain your kraft stock spec so reorders match.

Frequently asked questions
Can you print full color on brown kraft?
Yes. We lay an opaque white ink underlay first, so full-color graphics print vividly on natural kraft. Or choose single-color black or white print for the classic kraft look.
Is recycled kraft available?
Yes — recycled content options in natural and white kraft. Tell us your sustainability goals and we specify the right stock.
Is kraft as strong as white cardboard?
For most uses, yes — kraft's longer fibers give it excellent tear resistance. For heavy or stacked shipments we specify kraft corrugated in the right flute.
What is the minimum order quantity for custom kraft boxes?
Typically 500 units for folding cartons and 1,000 units for corrugated mailers, depending on size and print. Share your specs for an exact minimum.
Can kraft packaging be plastic-free?
Yes. We can build fully plastic-free kraft packaging — no lamination, water-based coatings and paper-tape-compatible surfaces — on request.
