Sack kraft is used for packaging products and has high tensile energy absorption (TEA), high porosity, high stiffness, and excellent printability as compared to conventional packaging materials. Increasing demand for biodegradable packaging materials in various application such as cement and building industry is driving growth of the sack kraft paper market. However, the lack of the availability of raw materials like wood, is expected to be one of the major restraining factors for the market growth.
