5 Steps to Manufacture Paper Straws

Manufacturing paper straws is a completely different process to producing plastic straws. Typically constructed of 3 plies of paper, the plies are bonded together with a small amount of water-based adhesive using a core-winding machine, or hot melt adhesives using a slot nozzle machine for very fast production lines. The choice of the paper and adhesive quality has a fundamental impact on the performance of the paper straw and the efficiency of manufacture. Therefore, a strong paper straw requires that the paper supplier and the adhesive manufacturer work closely together. The paper manufacturer, paper grade, and paper color all must be taken into consideration when choosing the proper adhesive.
