Answer:	Yes, it is acid free
Question:	Is this paper acid free
Answer:	It is thicker than newsprint, but it can be crumpled easily. I wasn't sure how it would work cleaning windows, so I tried it out. : ) Because it's heavier and has a smoother surface, it takes a little bit more wiping to get it to take up all the liquid, but it does do it. Hope this helps!

Let Polly and the kids share the paper after!

An American moving company stacked the three substances against each other: newspaper, bubble wrap and packing paper. Newspaper lost dismally; it's too fragile to save delicate items, and the ink stains china and porcelain. Bubble wrap did well but is not recyclable and is very expensive. Packing paper worked perfectly and allowed items to be stacked on each other.

• The plain surface is easy to label for an organized move
• It's reusable! Line your parrot's cage or let the kids paint on after the move
• It won't easily tear, so use less. Less mistakes = faster packing
• Packing paper breaks down easily during recycling

Keep Your China White and Bright

The last thing you want is your precious bone china to arrive with nasty ink stains because you used old newspaper to pack! This paper will protect your precious items as carefully as if you hand-carried each cup and saucer yourself. The white acid-free and ink-free paper is also easy to label, so you can unwrap your things quickly and efficient.

You Need Strength for the Fragile

Those porcelain teacups need to be packed individually. Dime-store packing paper or newspaper won't make the cut; you'll need more than one sheet to be effective. This paper is incredibly strong so you need less of it to protect your valuables. At 27" x 17", it's just the right size to accommodate your needs. With 5 lb, 10 lb and 20lb packs to suit your every need.

Don't Limit the Paper to Packing

Sure, the paper was specifically developed to protect valuables while moving, but it has so many other uses as well. Did you hear that gift wrapping paper isn't reusable? Guess what is? Use it for crafts or lay it down for the kids to draw on. Line the pet's cage or or reptile's aquarium with the leftovers!

Looking for ways to safely pack your merchandise?



When you are in a business, you want to provide the best quality product and deliver it with utmost care. Packaging is very important as it assures your customer that their item is secure and intact.



While packaging is as important as the product itself, you want to make sure that you don’t spend too much on securing your product. You’re also looking to reduce your contribution to harmful waste by avoiding bubble wrap, packing peanuts, and plastic sheets.



Choose packing material that is economical and kinder to the Earth with the Woodman Crafts Newsprint Packing Paper!



Our newsprint material can be used to pack fragile merchandise such as dining wares, kitchen wares, and other breakables like porcelain vases and pottery. It can be used as fillers for hollow objects like glasses, pots, and bowls. You can also use it as stuffing to increase the stability of loose items inside boxes.



These paper sheets can be tiled together to create a larger wrap to pack large frames, murals, and other big objects. These papers are recyclable and biodegradable, unlike plastic wraps that take hundreds of years to decompose.



Beyond shipping, newsprint papers are highly absorbent and are used as tray liners in many fast food chains. If you have a diner or a restaurant, you can cut out a large newsprint sheet into 5 to 6 pieces and use them to protect your trays and minimize food mess.

User questions & answers

Question:	Why does this say 20 lb when product description says "Package Dimensions : 18.07 x 12.17 x 5.51 inches; 19.25 Pounds
Answer:	Hi, while I’m not certain what you are really asking, this is not tissue paper but it is news print. Yes it will tear but like a newspaper, remember those? It is the kind of paper used by professional packers employed by movers. Said another way, if you are wrapping things like dishes or drinking glasses to protect them from breakage, this is the right product. If you are trying to protect small and delicate things like expensive porcelain figurines this would not be the right stuff and you should consider instead tissue paper or bubble wrap with very small bubbles. I hope this helps. It is what we are doing as we prepare to move later in the year.
Question:	do they tear easily
Answer:	Good question. I bought the 20 lb box and though I did not count the sheets, the interior packaging says 480 sheets instead of 640.
Question:	How many sheets? The description says 620 but i am seeing 480 in the comments. Which one is correct please...thank you in advance
Answer:	Thanks for the catch! We just slightly changed the sheet sizes from 31.0" x 21.5" to 27" be 17" in order to make a better tri-fold without the hard creases of a cross-fold as customers requested. This change yielded more sheets for the same amount of total weight, also which customers requested, so now our 20# package has 640 sheets as opposed to the 480 previously.
Question:	i just posted asking the amount of sheets. which one is correct? the 480 sheets or 640 sheets...i saw 480 in the comments... does it have 480 or
Answer:	Matte finish

User questions & answers

Question:	How thick is the material, I am looking for 1/8" thick
Answer:	32
Question:	How many sheets come in the order
Answer:	It's hard to tell if it is totally perforated, but it tears easily along the fold marks (I think every 12 "). You can also use it as larger sections though if you need to.
Question:	Does this come with perforated lines, or already cut into squares
Answer:	So its 40 feet. The Duck brand bubble wrap is 12 inches by 150 feet. Why would you not get the 150 feet roll ?
Question:	Is it 12" x 40 FEET as it says or 12" x 40 inches
Answer:	Amazon randomly weight packages and that happens to be the number you see in the description. Amazon standard description is +/- 5%. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this paper work well for wrapping small Christmas ornaments
Answer:	Do you remember school math paper? Now picture it easel sized. It’s ideal packing paper which is pliable to wrap knick knacks, etc. 20lb paper goes in a printer. This doesn’t refer to the weight of each piece but to the total amount.
Question:	what is the weight of each sheet? Is it 10lb paper or 20lb, or

Answer:	Approximately 220 sheets (31" x 21.5")
Question:	How many sheets of paper

Question:	Is this true newsprint? I use old newspapers to clean windows but get ink smears at times
Answer:	Yes. It wraps nicely. Depending on the ornament , you may want to use more than 1 sheet.

User questions & answers

Question:	Safe to just use that and not add bubble wrap
Answer:	I use one for every other dish for storing holiday dishes and China. I haven’t done any moving though.
Question:	Do I need to use one for each plate, or can I stack plates without foam between the plates that are in the foam
Answer:	I would guess that the longer pouches would work well, although by itself it would not be enough. They would be kept safe from scratching, but would not keep them from breaking on impact.
Question:	Will this product work for wine glasses
Answer:	Bubble wrap is definetly better protection, the foam pouches are more for storing while in a cupboard during the year, not for moving in a box. Hope this helps.
Question:	This can protect dishes from scratching but how does it prevent breakage like bubble wrap would
Answer:	Very smooth. If I needed anymore for my packing purposes I would definitely purchase again. Also would be great for kids to color on.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are these sheets water proof for bird runny poop
Answer:	I used this to wrap both unsealed & sealed painted and printed canvas art & photos to store for what was supposed to be 1-2 months in a regular storage unit (not climate controlled), but ended up stretching out to just over a yr thanks to a complicated escrow process. At any rate, everything that was wrapped in this paper was still in perfect condition AND it even protected a few pieces from what we can only guess was rodent urine! 😖 Only the outer layer of paper was saturated. I wrapped each piece individually and secured with tape like wrapping a present. Then I bundled them in groups of 5 and wrapped all 5 with another layer of paper and secured the seams with tape, and that's how they were moved and were stored upright on a metal shelf in storage. I also use this paper a LOT as a drop sheet for art/craft projects, and it works great, even for messy paint! For really runny/wet projects like watercolor, I use 2 sheets, but 1 is fine for most uses. I've ordered these several times now and will continue to do so.
Question:	Can it be used for art prints separation in storage
Answer:	Hello! This paper is not glossy or waxed. It is newsprint.
Question:	Is this paper glossy or waxed
Answer:	Yes. It works very well, and makes keeping their cages clean without a lot of work. It’s a lot better than newspapers because there is no printing on it, etc.
Question:	Can you use it for bird cages
Answer:	I believe it it #14 weight paper... I am using it as birdcage liner. It is very absorbant, and a decent substitute for the actual liners that I was using that are no longer carried by the pet store.

Question:	are these thick enough to pack framed tiles in
Answer:	The standard size of a vinyl lp is 12 in dia., if your lucky enough to have the 1930's/40's albums (78 rpm), they're only 10 in dia. So the answer to your question is yes. That being said, I would suggest you take a look at pouches made for records, such as, Record Inner Sleeves Anti-Static- (50Pk) Premium Protection for 12" LP Albums by Record-Happy or something similar.
Question:	Can anyone tell me if a standard size vinyl lp record will fit in these

User questions & answers

Question:	These are thin. can anyone recommend a thicker brand
Answer:	Yes, they are recyclable.
Question:	Can you recycle these
Answer:	I think so. If you pack them on their sides then they should be good. For extra protection I would advice getting some sheet cushion and line the box with it. As long as no one drops or mistreats the box they should be perfectly safe. I used them to pack my china and antique depression glass.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this paper be recycled
Answer:	Wood that is planed from rough sawn allows for the difference in measurement. Paper is not planed therefore description is merely inaccurate.
Question:	Why do you call this paper 18” when it is
Answer:	Definitely! Chalk works very well on our arts and crafts paper.
Question:	Can I use chalk marker on this paper
Answer:	Hi, thanks for your question but unfortunately 18” is our shortest width.
Question:	Do you sell narrower options? I have an antique stand which can only take a max width of 16" by
Answer:	I think this i/16th thickness just goes with the price; for an alternative brand, the actually Made in USA DAT package of 50 sheets is 1/8th thick & good quality.
