Tough Paper for a World Market

First, there was SPK®, super performance kraft, and now there's SPX® - an even tougher, stronger paper for two-ply, multi-wall packaging.

Together, SPX® and SPK® keep bag converters on the cutting edge from North America to Europe to Latin America. They're two super performers!

 SPX and SPK


SPX® is an outstanding, high-performance multi-wall paper. It combines remarkable cross-direction strength with added stretch in the machine direction creating a superior balanced sheet for today's bag manufacturing equipment.

SPX® is more cost-effective than conventional papers in several ways:

  • Converters running two-ply versus three-ply use up to thirty percent less paper per bag.
  • Machines can run faster with fewer roll changes.
  • Less paper inventory is needed.
  • More bags stacked per pallet cutting shipping costs.
 SPX and SPK


SPX® Velocity offers these additional advantages: SPX Velocity
  • Shorter Sack - SPX® Velocity air permeability means no requirement for internal void space in sacks during filling. This allows converters to shorten the bag length, reducing the sack size.
  • Clean Packaging - No perforations eliminate dust and keeps the bag surface clean.
  • Rapid Filling - Porous paper is superior to perforation for air evacuation. The faster air is evacuated from a pasted valve sack, the faster it can be filled and palletized.


SPX® Vector - The Single Ply Solution SPX Vector

This single ply solution provides the performance characteristics and cost reduction bag users require, and the runnability converters need.

  • Reduced packaging - Less paper per sack.
  • Excellent porosity - No perforations means cleaner handling for the packaging plant, point of purchase and end user.
  • Strong Sack - Means faster fill speeds and a stronger bag for demanding applications.
  • Increased stiffness- Compared with 2 ply 70gsm (43#) bags, one ply SPX® Vector bags run faster due to increased stiffness obtained by a heavier weight one ply.
  • Cost savings
    • Less paper per sack
    • Stiffness allows production of sacks at higher speeds
    • Less waste
    • Faster changeover
