Krepppapierträger

Krepppapierträger is a term used for devices or components that hold, guide, or tension crepe paper (Krepppapier) during handling, processing or display. The exact form of a Krepppapierträger varies by application, and there is no single standardized design. In industrial settings, such devices may be part of unwinding and feeding systems on packaging, printing, or decoration lines, where they help maintain controlled tension and proper alignment as crepe paper is unwound from a roll or fed into a machine. Typical features include a rigid frame, adjustable width guides, clamps or rollers to grip the paper edges, tensioning mechanisms, and mounting hardware. Some variants are manually operated, while others are integrated into motor-driven equipment for continuous feed.

In craft and educational contexts, Krepppapierträger can be simpler stands or holders that keep crepe paper taut and flat during activities such as making paper flowers, garlands, or decorative wraps. Materials commonly used are metal or plastic, selected for durability and ease of cleaning.

Etymology and scope: the term combines Krepppapier (crepe paper) with Träger (carrier or holder). Because it covers a range of implementations, the specific design, components, and suitability depend on the intended use, the required paper width, and the roll diameter. Contemporary variants often prioritize adjustable tension and quick-release features to accommodate different crepe paper products and workflows.
