IVIV (11) 175 Re Kraft bags

[Mark Kohut]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kraft_process

Kraft paper is paper produced by the kraft process from wood pulp. It is strong and relatively coarse. Kraft paper is usually a brown colour but can be bleached to produce white paper. It is used for paper grocery bags, multiwall sacks, envelopes and other packaging.

This is all I know.....as a process, kraft is often not capitalized yet sometimes is. As above. Dunno nothing about Mr. Kraft.
