Crane Paper is the name of the company that makes the paper for U.S. banknotes, along with writing papers, envelopes, etc. for retail sale.
The paper used in banknotes is a special formulation with a high cotton content so that it will put up with repeated foldings, accidents such as going through a washing machine, etc. In addition it has tiny blue and red fibers, a watermark, and a special UV-sensitive security strip embedded in it to defeat photocopiers.
However, Crane Paper also has very powerful lobbyists that have prevented a number of major changes to U.S. currency, in particular ending production of the $1 bill in favor of dollar coins.
