Wrapping Made Better With Kraft
Custom kraft tissue paper is one of the simplest and most effective ways to elevate the unboxing experience for your customers. Used as a liner inside boxes, mailers, and gift packaging, kraft tissue adds a layer of tactile surprise that tells the customer they are about to receive something worth unwrapping. At Teal Packaging, we produce custom kraft tissue paper with a 2-week turnaround, a minimum order of 50 units, and free shipping to the US, Canada, UK, and Australia.
Our manufacturing partners print directly onto lightweight kraft tissue, allowing your logo, brand pattern, or custom artwork to appear on every sheet your customer touches. Free design support is included, so whether you have finished artwork or just a rough idea, our team will bring it to a professional print-ready result.
Pair your tissue paper with our custom kraft boxes or custom mailer boxes to create a complete and cohesive kraft packaging system from the outer box to the innermost layer.
Materials and GSM Specifications
Tissue paper for packaging needs to be light enough to fold and wrap easily while being strong enough not to tear during use. Our custom kraft tissue paper is available in the following weight options:
- 17 GSM Kraft Tissue: A very lightweight option that offers a soft, delicate feel. Best for wrapping fragile items, lining jewellery boxes, or adding a layer of visual depth inside retail packaging.
- 20 GSM Kraft Tissue: The most commonly ordered weight. Balances a premium, substantial feel with easy folding and wrapping. Suitable for most product categories from apparel to cosmetics to artisan food products.
- 25 GSM Kraft Tissue: A slightly heavier tissue that holds its shape better when folded into structured wraps or pleated presentations inside open-top boxes.
- MG Kraft Tissue (Machine Glazed): A kraft tissue with one smooth, slightly glossy side and one rough side. The smooth surface accepts ink more cleanly for detailed print designs, while the textured side provides grip to keep products in place.
All tissue options are FSC-certified and printed with soy-based inks. The material is recyclable and compostable, making it a responsible alternative to plastic wrapping films and bubble wrap liners.
Customization Options
The visual and tactile details of your custom printed kraft tissue are entirely up to you. Customization options include:
- Repeat Patterns: A continuous tile pattern featuring your logo, brand icon, botanical illustration, or abstract design element printed across the entire sheet.
- Spot Printing: A single logo or brand mark printed at a specific location on the tissue sheet, typically centred or placed near the top fold.
- Custom Colours: Soy-based inks are available in a wide range of colours. While kraft tissue has a natural tan base that affects colour appearance, our team will advise on colour choices that work beautifully against the kraft background.
- White Printing on Kraft: White ink applied to the kraft base creates a high-contrast, clean look that many modern brands prefer for its simplicity.
- Custom Sheet Sizes: Sheets can be manufactured to the specific dimensions required to fit your boxes or wrapping format.
- Pre-Folded Tissue: Sheets can be supplied pre-folded to a consistent size that fits directly into your standard packaging box without additional handling.
Our design team will prepare a digital proof showing exactly how your artwork will appear on the kraft tissue background before any printing begins.
Available Sizes
Standard tissue sheet sizes cover the most common packaging applications, and custom sheet dimensions are available for specialty uses:
- 10 x 14 inches - small format sheet for jewellery boxes, soap packaging, and small cosmetics
- 15 x 20 inches - the most popular size for retail and e-commerce packaging, suits most small and medium products
- 18 x 24 inches - a generous format for apparel, shoes, and larger gift presentations
- 20 x 30 inches - a large sheet suitable for wrapping bulkier items or creating a layered presentation inside large retail boxes
- 24 x 36 inches - an oversized format for home goods, art prints, and premium product wrap applications
If your packaging workflow requires a non-standard sheet size to reduce trimming and waste, share your box interior dimensions and our team will optimise the sheet size accordingly.
Sustainability Commitment
Tissue paper is one of the easiest packaging components to make sustainable. Our custom kraft tissue paper is produced from FSC-certified fibres, printed with soy-based inks, and fully recyclable and compostable at end of life. Unlike polyethylene foam liners or plastic wrap inserts, kraft tissue breaks down in home composting environments without leaving microplastic residues. For related packaging needs, explore our candle packaging.
For brands actively reducing single-use plastic from their packaging, replacing plastic void fill and bubble wrap with branded kraft tissue is an impactful and visible step. Customers see and feel the commitment to sustainability in every unboxing moment. When combined with recyclable outer packaging such as our custom subscription boxes or custom gift boxes, kraft tissue completes a fully plastic-free packaging experience.
Our manufacturing partners optimise press layouts to reduce off-cut waste from each production run, ensuring that the environmental impact of producing your tissue is minimised throughout the supply chain.
