All of the papers produced at Canadian Kraft Paper utilize 100% virgin fiber from Canada’s northern forests. This slow growing virgin fiber provides tremendous strength characteristics for our paper – the best available in North America.
These high performance extensible papers are sold to converters throughout the world for various demanding applications. Unbleached extensible papers are used for building materials, chemicals and food applications to name a few.
Fibre
Canada’s northern forests produce some of the finest trees and fiber available for pulp and paper. These trees produce cellulose fibers that are long, slender, flexible and strong – providing an excellent furnish for Kraft paper production. The readily collapsible thin cell walls of fibers form ribbons with an exceptional surface area – promoting optimum fiber to fiber bonding for superior strength and excellent printability.
Refining Process
The combination of superb northern fiber, sophisticated pulping, high consistency refining and extensibility produces an exceptionally strong and uniform sheet of paper.
The Canadian Kraft Paper mill uses low and high consistency refiners, with a Flakt dryer and extensible blanket to produce one of the best extensible papers in the world.
