The tuber starts with multiple giant rolls of kraft paper of a width that will finish into the specific bag width .... The material is then formed into a tube that is pasted together along the seam. The tube may be formed with or without gussets. During seam-pasting, the edges of the various plies form a shingle pattern. When they are brought together to form a seam, these edges interweave so that each ply glues to itself. This provides optimal seam strength.
