Strong, Lightweight and Stretchable: Domtar’s Better Paper Bag Material

For decades, the single-use plastic bag reigned as the dominant design solution for one of the most common human activities: getting a purchase home. But that popularity comes at a great cost; almost all plastic bags end up in a landfill, are incinerated, or leak into the environment as trash. With the single-use plastic bag ubiquitous in retail operations today, rising concerns about plastic waste demand a better solution.
Domtar’s unique, 100% cellulose fiber-based material boasts properties not commonly associated with paper:
• STRETCHABLE - The unique product stretches and flexes up to 40%
• STRENGTH - This durable material is stronger than conventional kraft bag paper
• LIGHTWEIGHT - Up to 47% lighter than conventional bag paper
• SUSTAINABLE - Responsibly sourced and curbside recyclable after intended end use
The result is a lighter weight carrier bag material with superior qualities, reduced material content and a lower environmental impact.

Is this cellulose bag waterproof or water resistant?
