Kraft paper is very strong wrapping paper, which is used for production of packages, bags for loose products and other packing.

The word "Kraft" is derived from German Kraft, meaning "power". As one of the properties of this material — high resistance to mechanical damage. However, its main advantage is environmental friendliness (as compared with common plastic bags) and low production costs. This paper is made from cellulose using recyclable materials. This is due to its small value in the diversity of species and density.



Kraft paper — is not a modern invention. Familiar yellow envelopes and paper used to pack the products in Soviet times were produced by the same technology.

In recent years the popularity of this type of packaging again is gaining momentum, which is associated with the fashion for eco-friendly products from natural materials.

In large retail chains paper bags are now available as alternatives to plastic, and in 2015 it is planned to refuse from the use of the latter. So the prospects of development of production packages of Kraft paper is highly optimistic.

The room and equipment.

However, to open it you will need certain attachments. First of all, you need to buy or rent production and warehouse space. Their area depends on the anticipated production volumes.

When you calculate you can focus on the following data: the paper roll is 1 square meter, and 5-6 thousand pieces of ready-made packages or bags.

From the equipment you will need semi-automatic paper cutting, machines for the production of multilayer tubes, gluing the ends and perforations of the press.

For printing on the packages will need a flexographic machine. Depending on the package format, such a device allows to put the image into one or more (up to six) colors.
The cost of the new equipment is quite high (about 1,5 mln. R., depending on additional devices). But you can't buy new machines (500 Tr) and release at the first stage, ordinary bags without printing.

Materials you will need the actual paper, glue on a starch-based paint for printing, cord (ribbon, braid, rope, plastic) for the manufacture of handles. Paper varies in density, composition, purpose and price.

Staff.

For maintenance of the machines will also have to hire a staff of workers (from 3 people). Accordingly, consider the cost of salaries rate of at least 10 Tr per person per month.

Profit.

When you have decided on the main items of expenditure, you can start counting profits. The production cost of the package is 3 $ /PCs implementation, this price is increased by 3-4 times.
The profitability of this type of business is quite high — about 40 %.

Monthly profit the best estimates can range from 250 Tr and above. It all depends on whether you will be able to develop sales of its products.

Sales.

Despite its relevance and is still a low number of competitors in this segment, it is better to consider opportunities to expand distribution channels.

If the volume of production is large enough, invite the cooperation of retail chains and individual shops, cafes and restaurants that sell takeaway food.

With a standing order you can provide the manufacturers of animal feed, building materials and mixtures, suppliers of bulk coffee and tea, which package their products in paper bags, bakeries, sellers of chicken grilled, etc. the Ability to sell packaging bags in small quantities (200 pieces) can bring you additional customers from the small business.

In the presence of flexo equipment you can make under the order packages with corporate logo and company logo. Pack of better quality, textured and expensive Kraft paper perfect for decoration of gifts and cosmetic products (for example, handmade soap, perfume, etc.).

By the way, this work can over time become your primary specialization. Most of the major Russian companies involved in the manufacture of paper bags and sacks, are guided, first and foremost, food producers, mortar, coal, etc.

Packages from a Kraft-paper as an unusual gift packs are still only starting to gain popularity, but their more far-sighted manufacturers have hired designers and considering options custom marketing solutions. published
