Nicotine pouch material
Nicotine Pouch Fabric & Snus Paper Nonwoven
Heat-sealable pouch-grade nonwoven for nicotine pouch material qualification. Buyers may also use terms such as snus paper, snus filter paper, nicotine pouch paper, pouch nonwoven or oral pouch material.
Qualification priorities
Evaluate the material on the line that will actually run it
MSN-7B is available in 32 gsm and 34 gsm options for sample review. Final suitability depends on the machine, pouch format, fill, sealing conditions and finished-pouch requirements.
Heat sealing
Review seal formation and consistency on the actual machine. Current published numeric values apply to the 34 gsm manufacturer TDS; exact-sample qualification documents still matter.
Converting stability
Observe feeding, web handling, stoppages and finished-pouch consistency during the sample trial.
Powder retention
Check fine-particle behavior and seal contamination with the target fill rather than assuming one formulation transfers to another.
Cleanliness
Review lint, visible fibre and production cleanliness under normal operating conditions.
Mouthfeel
Evaluate softness, edges, wet handling and the finished pouch construction as a complete system.
Documentation
Match model, revision, report date and evidence scope to the material actually being tested.
Review documentation →Material starting point
32 gsm and 34 gsm are options — not interchangeable data sets
32 gsm
Available for sample review. Use the controlled qualification documents applicable to the exact sample; do not transfer 34 gsm numeric limits automatically.
34 gsm
The current manufacturer TDS provides the published 34 gsm numeric values. Two test-method references remain under controlled-document review against original records.

Frequently asked questions
Common sourcing questions
Is snus paper the same as nicotine pouch fabric?
In sourcing conversations, buyers may use snus paper, snus filter paper, nicotine pouch paper, pouch nonwoven and nicotine pouch fabric for closely related material categories. The correct material still needs to be qualified against the specific product and production process.
What documentation is available?
Released documentation includes MSDS, manufacturer-issued food-contact and material/allergen statements, and scope-specific SGS reports. The controlled TDS revision is under method-reference review. The 2025 SGS report for FDA 21 CFR 176.170 records a Pass for the tested MSN-7B sample; the 21 CFR 175.105 document is an ingredient review. The available REACH / SVHC supporting report is older, so check its sample, client entity, date and Candidate List scope before relying on it.
How should machine compatibility be evaluated?
Start with a sample review, then validate the selected material on your own equipment, pouch format, sealing settings and production conditions before commercial adoption.
How should wet or dry pouch applications be evaluated?
Share the pouch format and process conditions so a starting sample can be selected. Suitability should then be confirmed through qualification on your own production line.
What basis weights are available?
32 gsm and 34 gsm options are available for sample review. Current published numeric values are tied to the 34 gsm manufacturer TDS; use the controlled qualification document set applicable to the exact sample.
