The kraft paper market is poised for steady growth due to the increasing emphasis on eco-friendly packaging and the rising restrictions on single-use plastics. Its low cost, durability, and cost-effectiveness make it an ideal choice for industries such as food, e-commerce, retail, and construction. Additionally, the rapid expansion of online shopping and advancements in paper manufacturing and printing technologies are further driving the demand for kraft paper products.
By grade, the unbleached kraft segment is projected to register the fastest growth during the forecast period
The unbleached kraft segment is projected to register the fastest growth in the kraft paper market during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to its high strength, durability, and sustainability. The low level of chemical processing and the preservation of its natural brown appearance make unbleached kraft both more sustainable and economically viable compared to bleached kraft products. It has many applications, including industrial bags, grocery bags, and protective wrappings, making it highly useful in the construction, food, and retail industries.
By packaging form, the grocery bags segment accounted for the second-largest market share in 2024
In 2024, the grocery bags segment accounted for the second-largest share of the kraft paper market. This is driven by increasing policies against plastic bags and growing consumer preference for biodegradable options. Kraft paper grocery bags are not only biodegradable but also durable, making them a sustainable choice for both retailers and consumers. The rising competition from supermarkets, hypermarkets, and convenience stores, along with greater awareness of plastic waste reduction programs, has further amplified the demand for kraft paper grocery bags.

Europe accounted for the second-largest share of the kraft paper market in 2024
In 2024, the kraft paper market in Europe held the second-largest share, driven by a strong demand for sustainable packaging solutions and regulations aimed at reducing plastic waste.
