Crofton Kraft™

We market northern bleached softwood kraft (NBSK) pulp as Crofton Kraft™ and manufacture it at our Crofton Division. Crofton has an annual market pulp capacity of 343,000 tonnes.

Made from blending hemlock and fir chips, Crofton Kraft™ is designed to meet specific end-use applications. Its superior reinforcement properties make it well suited for the production of lightweight coated paper for catalogues and magazines; its superior tear strength and bulk make it well suited for the production of paper grades requiring high porosity.
