Hey there! As a supplier of roll paper bag making machines, I often get asked about the types of paper these machines can use. Well, let me break it down for you.
Kraft Paper
Kraft paper is one of the most popular choices for paper bag making. It's strong, durable, and has a natural brown color that gives a rustic look to the bags. This type of paper is made from wood pulp and goes through a chemical pulping process called the Kraft process. That's why it's so tough.
Kraft paper comes in different weights. Lighter weight kraft paper, around 30 - 60 grams per square meter (gsm), is great for making small, lightweight bags like those used for holding jewelry or small trinkets. On the other hand, heavier kraft paper, say 80 - 120 gsm, can be used to make larger bags that can carry heavier items, like grocery bags.
Our roll paper bag making machines can easily handle kraft paper. They're designed to work with different thicknesses smoothly, making sure the bags are formed properly. Whether you want to make a simple single - ply kraft paper bag or a more robust multi - ply one, our machines have got you covered.
Coated Paper
Coated paper is another option. It has a thin layer of coating on one or both sides. This coating can be made of materials like clay or polymers. The main advantage of coated paper is its smooth surface. It looks more polished and can have better print quality.
For businesses that want to print high - resolution logos, images, or marketing messages on their paper bags, coated paper is the way to go. There are two types of coated paper: matte and gloss. Matte coated paper has a non - shiny finish, which gives a more sophisticated and understated look. Gloss coated paper, on the other hand, has a shiny surface that makes colors pop.
Our roll paper bag making machines can handle coated paper without a hitch. The coating doesn't interfere with the bag - making process. The machines can cut, fold, and glue the coated paper just as efficiently as they do with other types of paper. You can check out our Fully Automatic Paper Carry Bag Making Machine to see how well it works with coated paper.
Recycled Paper
In today's environmentally - conscious world, recycled paper is becoming increasingly popular. It's made from recycled materials, usually post - consumer waste paper. Using recycled paper helps reduce the demand for virgin wood pulp, which is great for the environment.
Recycled paper can vary in quality and appearance. Some recycled papers look and feel very similar to regular paper, while others may have a more textured or "recycled" look. Our roll paper bag making machines are flexible enough to work with different grades of recycled paper. Whether it's a high - quality recycled paper that's almost indistinguishable from virgin paper or a more rough - textured one, our machines can turn it into beautiful paper bags.
By choosing to use recycled paper and our machines, you're not only making eco - friendly bags but also showing your customers that you care about the environment. It's a win - win situation!
Cardboard
Cardboard is a thicker and stiffer type of paper. It's often used for making more rigid paper bags, like those used for gift items or high - end products. Cardboard can provide more structure to the bag, making it stand up better and hold its shape.
There are different kinds of cardboard, such as single - wall cardboard and double - wall cardboard. Single - wall cardboard is thinner and more flexible, while double - wall cardboard is much sturdier. Our roll paper bag making machines can handle both types. They have the power and precision to cut and fold cardboard accurately, ensuring that the bags are well - made.
If you're in the business of making luxury or specialty paper bags, using cardboard with our machines can give you the edge. You can create bags that are not only functional but also look really impressive.
Newsprint
Newsprint is a lightweight and inexpensive type of paper commonly used for newspapers. It's made from mechanical pulp, which gives it a somewhat rough texture. While it may not be as strong as kraft paper or as smooth as coated paper, it has its own charm.
Newsprint is a great option if you're looking to make low - cost paper bags. It's perfect for short - term use, like holding items at a temporary event or in a low - budget retail setting. Our roll paper bag making machines can work with newsprint efficiently. They can quickly form bags from newsprint rolls, allowing you to produce a large number of bags in a short time.
Specialty Papers
There are also specialty papers that you can use with our roll paper bag making machines. These include papers with unique textures, patterns, or colors. For example, there are embossed papers that have raised patterns on the surface, giving the bags a more tactile and interesting look.
Metallic papers are another type of specialty paper. They have a shiny, metallic finish that can make the bags look very eye - catching. These papers are often used for making party bags or bags for special occasions.
Our machines can adapt to these specialty papers. They can handle the unique properties of each type, whether it's the extra thickness of an embossed paper or the slippery surface of a metallic paper.
Compatibility with Different Machines
Now, it's important to note that while our roll paper bag making machines are very versatile, different models may have some limitations in terms of the paper they can handle. For example, some of our smaller, more entry - level machines may be better suited for thinner papers, like newsprint or lighter weight kraft paper.
On the other hand, our larger and more advanced models can handle a wider range of paper types and thicknesses, including thick cardboard and multi - ply papers. So, when you're choosing a machine, make sure to consider the types of paper you plan to use.
We also have other related machines that can work in conjunction with our roll paper bag making machines. For example, our Automatic Flute Laminating Machine can be used to laminate different layers of paper together, which can be useful when making stronger or more complex paper bags. And our Manual Automatic Integrated Die - cutting Machine can help you create custom - shaped bags or add special cuts and designs to your bags.

In conclusion, our roll paper bag making machines are quite flexible when it comes to the types of paper they can use. From kraft paper to coated paper, recycled paper, cardboard, newsprint, and specialty papers, there are many options available.
