# Crepe kraft paper on a roll *Since 2007, we have been the go-to wholesaler for crepe kraft paper on a roll. Crepe paper is kraft paper that has been compressed lengthways during production, which gives the sheet its fine ribbed texture. The result is paper that is thicker, more elastic and noticeably grippier than smooth paper: it stays where you wrap it instead of sliding open in transit or in storage.* ## Crepe kraft paper on a roll: grip where smooth paper slips The 10 cm roll width is deliberate. It lets you work one-handed – pull half a turn tight around a leg or a profile, tear the paper off by hand and move on. No knife, no dispenser, and in many cases no tape either. Ordered on working days before 3:30 PM? Then your order will be shipped the same day. ## Where crepe paper on a roll is used ### Wrapping furniture for removals and storage Chair and table legs, armrests and mouldings are exactly the points that pick up damage during loading. A few turns of crepe paper absorb knocks and abrasion without any adhesive touching the furniture itself. Large surfaces such as table tops, cabinets and sofas are better covered with [moving blankets](en/moving-materials/moving-blankets). ### Bundling profiles, tubes and frames With long, slender goods, crepe paper stops the individual parts rubbing against each other inside the bundle, and it doubles as an indicator layer: damage shows up on the paper rather than on the product. Where edges take real load, add [corrugated board](en/protective-and-filling-materials/corrugated-board) underneath. ### Masking during painting and installation work On site, crepe paper shields radiators, pipework, hinges and door handles from paint spatter and dust, and it peels away afterwards without leaving residue on the substrate. ## Specifications MaterialCreped kraft paperColourBrownRoll width10 cmRoll diameterapprox. 7 cmLength per roll9 metresTextureRibbed (creped), high-friction surfaceHandlingOne-handed unwinding, tears by handPackagingBox of 175 rolls, or a set of 25 rollsDisposalRecyclable with waste paperTypical useFurniture legs, mouldings, profiles, masking## Crepe paper or smooth kraft paper? It comes down to friction. If the job is to wrap something tightly and keep it in place, crepe paper is the obvious choice. If you are covering large surfaces or filling voids in a carton, a wide roll of [kraft paper](en/protective-and-filling-materials/kraft-paper) gets you there faster. Lacquered or polished surfaces deserve a soft interleaf of [tissue paper](en/protective-and-filling-materials/tissue-paper), and to lock a finished bundle or pallet in place you reach for [hand wrapping film](en/wrapping-film-shrink-film-top-sheets-pallets/stretch-film-wrap-film/hand-wrapping-foil). In practice these materials work together: paper against scratches, film against movement. ## Not sure which size you need?

The creping process leaves the surface in fine ridges rather than flat. Those ridges increase friction between the paper layers themselves and between paper and product, so a wrapped layer holds its position. Smooth paper has no such grip and works loose as soon as the load shifts. ### Will it mark lacquered or veneered furniture? The paper is untreated and adhesive-free, so it leaves no residue. Wrap the paper around the item and apply any tape to the paper only, never directly to the finish. On high-gloss or recently lacquered surfaces, add a layer of tissue paper underneath. ### Can the roll be torn by hand? Yes. Creped paper tears cleanly across the running direction, so you take exactly the length each leg or profile needs. Skipping the knife or dispenser makes a measurable difference on larger packing runs. ### Is crepe paper a recyclable alternative to plastic wrap? It is pure kraft paper with no coating or plastic layer, so it goes straight into the paper stream. For companies reducing plastic in their packaging, replacing a film wrap with a single-material paper wrap is one of the simplest substitutions available. ### How much paper should I allow per item? As a rule of thumb, two to three turns are enough for transport protection on a furniture leg. Sharp edges, metal profiles or long-term storage call for four to five turns, or a rigid edge protector underneath the paper. ## Producten - [Crepe paper on a roll - 10cm wide - 175 rolls](crepe-paper-on-a-roll-10cm-wide) - [25 rolls of crepe paper - 10cm wide](en/sustainable-packaging-materials/honeycomb-paper/25-rolls-crepe-paper-10cm-wide-roll-tape) --- Source: https://www.kortpack.nl
