Jiajiang, Sichuan | August 2025 – In the pursuit of more sustainable packaging materials, a centuries-old Chinese paper craft is finding new relevance in today’s green economy. Known for its remarkable strength and elegance, Jiajiang bamboo paper—a traditional handmade paper originating over 1,400 years ago during the Tang Dynasty—is now being rediscovered as a viable, biodegradable alternative in modern packaging design.

Historically, this bamboo-based paper flourished during the Ming and Qing Dynasties and was once used as imperial tribute paper during the reign of Emperor Kangxi. A particularly famous variety, “Cicada Wing Bamboo Paper,” is praised for its delicate, translucent quality and smooth texture—lightweight yet incredibly durable. Traditionally used for calligraphy, painting, book restoration, and cultural relics, it is now also being explored for creative packaging use.

A New Role for Bamboo Paper in Packaging

With its renewable raw materials, chemical-free processing, and strong environmental profile, Jiajiang bamboo paper offers exciting potential for eco-conscious packaging solutions. From wrapping paper and interleaving tissue to product liners and sticker backings, its application is expanding—especially in areas that value both aesthetics and sustainability.

At Dulink, we are committed to incorporating sustainable innovation into every product line. Our packaging offerings—ranging from corrugated boxes and poly mailers to custom stickers and tissue wrap—are now being developed with a focus on natural, biodegradable materials like Jiajiang bamboo paper.

“Packaging should tell a story. Using traditional materials like bamboo paper not only reduces environmental impact but also connects the user to a cultural heritage.”
