Munken Kraft HighWhite

Munken Kraft HighWhite is a machine finished, bleached kraft paper with a high level of whiteness, suitable for various bag-making, wrapping and packaging applications. Like Munken Kraft, it is produced from a specially developed mix of hardwood and softwood pulp to ensure high strength and very good printing performance in both offset and flexographic techniques.

Munken Kraft HighWhite is the higher-whiteness version created for brands that need even stronger contrast and clarity in their visual communication. Its bright shade ensures exceptional text readability and outstanding colour reproduction. It combines strength, dimensional stability and excellent surface smoothness – ideal for demanding packaging and branding projects that require precision, vibrancy and a premium appearance.
