Last updated: April 2026 dataProduced by the acid sulfite pulping process, sulfite wrapping paper is characterized by high purity, low ash content, and a smooth, supple surface that makes it suitable for direct-contact wrapping of food products, silverware, glassware, and precision manufactured parts. The sulfite process yields a cleaner, more flexible sheet than kraft pulping, which is why this grade is preferred where softness and conformability matter more than tensile strength. Importers should note that food-contact applications may trigger FDA review of any functional additives or coatings applied during or after manufacture.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Sulfite paper is softer, more conformable, and has a cleaner surface with lower lignin content than kraft paper, making it preferred for wrapping delicate items such as glassware, silverware, fresh produce, and precision parts. Kraft paper offers superior tensile and tear strength but is stiffer and less suitable for applications requiring close conformability to irregular surfaces.
When sulfite wrapping paper is intended for direct food contact, FDA regulations on food-contact substances apply to any functional additives, wet-strength agents, or surface treatments incorporated into the sheet. Importers should obtain supplier declarations confirming that all chemical additives comply with applicable FDA food-contact regulations before placing the product in food-packaging applications.
