Unbleached kraftliner, 125 to 200 gsm

Virgin fibre brown kraftliner in reels, 125 to 200 gsm, for corrugated box liners, from US, Brazilian and Nordic mills.

  • HS 480411
  • CFR Jebel Ali
  • Minimum order: 25 MT

Unbleached kraftliner is the strong virgin fibre outer layer of corrugated boxes used for fruit, vegetables, beverages and heavy goods. The USA, Brazil, Sweden and Finland are the main exporters, and most volume into the Middle East, Africa and South Asia moves in 40ft containers. Buyers are corrugated box plants and sheet feeders who need steady reel widths and grammages. The price follows pulp costs, mill price announcements in Europe and the USA, demand from the fresh produce season and container freight. Kraftliner trades at a premium to recycled testliner, and the gap widens when virgin fibre is short. We offer it CFR Jebel Ali or CFR the buyer's port, as spot containers or monthly contracts by width and grammage.
