Which code does this activity belong in?
Establishments in this industry distribute kraft wrapping, coarse paper, paperboard, converted paper products (except stationery and office supplies), and disposable plastics products. The key boundary is that this code excludes printing and writing papers, which are classified separately, and stationery and office supplies, which fall into their own merchant wholesaler category. The distinguishing characteristic is the focus on coarse, industrial-grade papers and disposable products rather than fine writing papers or supplies designed for office use.
