Our Products.

  • SPK® high performance kraft paper has been developed for use in applications demanding high strength and superior runnability. SPK® is known for its exceptional quality and lighter shade; a preferred choice for many converters. SPK® is used in sewn, pinch and even valve sacks; flour, sugar, seed, feed, potatoes, air filled dunnage bags and other specialty uses.

  • SPX® an extensible high performance sack kraft paper has superior Tensile Energy Absorption (TEA) in both the machine and cross direction. SPX® has excellent runnability and a very desirable shade for best print results. SPX® has been developed for the more demanding applications such as pasted valve sacks for cement and other building materials. The superior strength of this paper allows for reduced grammage and/or number of plies.
