Paper stock
Kraft paper labels
Uncoated, textured and unmistakably natural. A kraft label tells a shopper something about the product before they read a word of it.
Paper
Use it when
- Craft, organic and speciality food
- Coffee, chocolate, bakery and confectionery
- Homeware, gift and lifestyle brands
- Brands where the sustainability story is part of the product
Look elsewhere if
- Wet environments, unless laminated or a film is used
- Photography-heavy artwork — the texture fights fine gradients
How it behaves
| Surface | Uncoated and visibly fibrous |
|---|---|
| Print detail | Good for solid colour and bold type. Soft for photographic gradients |
| Water resistance | Low. Lamination if there is any handling risk |
| Recyclability | Excellent. Uncoated and easily repulpable, and available in recycled grades |
| Adhesive pairing | Permanent acrylic. Removable is awkward on an uncoated surface |
Finishes that work on it
Hot foil in gold or blind deboss is the classic pairing. Avoid heavy lamination, which removes the texture the buyer chose it for.

Questions about kraft paper labels
Does kraft need laminating?
Only if it will get wet. If the texture is the reason you chose it, a full laminate takes that texture away.
Can you print photographs on kraft?
You can, but the fibre shows through fine gradients. It suits bold type and flat colour far better.
Is it FSC certified?
FSC-certified grades are available on paper stocks under our chain-of-custody certificate. We confirm the grade on the quotation.
