Kraft Paper 70/80/100/120GSM Rolls & Sheets
Packaging that needs to hold its shape, protect what’s inside, and still look the part has relied on one material more than any other for over a century Kraft Paper. At AMS Papers, we stock it across the most commonly needed weights for retail customers handling individual packaging projects, and for buyers getting Kraft Paper Wholesale bag manufacturers, food businesses, retailers sourcing in bulk for ongoing production.
We carry kraft paper in 70GSM, 80GSM, 100GSM, and 120GSM, covering the range that handles most everyday packaging needs. Lighter 70-80GSM is the standard choice for wrapping paper, inner packaging, shopping bags, envelopes, and food wrapping, while heavier 100-120GSM steps up to stronger bags and gift packaging where the paper needs to carry more weight without tearing. What makes kraft paper genuinely different from standard packaging materials is its construction it’s manufactured for high tensile and bursting strength, meaning it resists tearing under load and holds together through the kind of repeated handling that shopping bags, shipping wraps, and food packaging actually experience.
Beyond weight, we offer real choice in grade and finish. Brown kraft remains the classic option for bags, wrapping, and general packaging, while white kraft gives a cleaner, more premium look suited to branding and printed packaging. If strength is the priority, virgin kraft paper delivers higher quality and durability than recycled alternatives, while recycled kraft paper is the better fit for businesses prioritizing an eco-friendly packaging story. For corrugated box production specifically, kraft liner paper is built to match that exact use case. Finish options run from smooth to ribbed to machine-glazed (MG) and coated, depending on what the final application calls for.
It’s available in both rolls and sheets, so whether you’re feeding a packaging line that needs continuous roll stock or simply need pre-cut sheets for smaller-scale wrapping and packing, we can supply the format that actually fits your workflow.
Buy kraft paper wholesale
Buying from AMS Papers: Kraft paper is available as a smaller retail quantity for individual packaging, gift wrapping, or small business use, or as a full wholesale order for bag manufacturers, food businesses, and retailers with ongoing supply needs. Per-unit pricing improves the more you order so if you’re sourcing kraft paper for regular production, it’s worth checking our wholesale rates rather than buying in smaller batches repeatedly.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What’s the difference between brown kraft and white kraft paper?
