Growth Indicators
Increasing Demand of Kraft Papers in Electrical, Construction and Food and Beverages
The usage of kraft papers in the power industry has always been high, as they are used for insulating high voltage apparatus, transformers, capacitors and cables. The use of paper and pressboard obtained from unbleached softwood kraft pulp also finds its use as an insulating material for oil-filled high voltage transformers. One type of kraft paper being Crepe kraft paper is being used for the purpose of insulating high-voltage parts in electrical equipment. The prices of Kraft papers are cheaper as compared to plastic tapes. Kraft paper finds their usage as floor covering in fiberglass operations as well as painting of interior spaces. This also includes paint masking, including skid and pallet covering. Moreover, sack kraft papers are environment-friendly and are being used in several industries as packaging material for cement, mortar as replacement of plastic sacks.
Higher Requirement for Insulation in Electrical Equipment
Transformers have been playing an effective role in supplying power in an efficient manner and is a significant equipment when it comes to handling power transmission and distribution. Kraft paper is being utilized in a substantial manner for the purpose of insulating HV oil filled transformers, including capacitors and cables.
Barriers
There are a few limitations faced by individuals who are using kraft papers, with a large segment of population preferring to use plastic packaging which is convenient for individuals to handle as well as being highly efficient as compared to kraft papers. Packaging using plastic is cheaper as compared to kraft paper packaging.
