Frequently Asked Questions
Businesses considering paperboard boxes for their products likely have questions. Please contact us for additional information.
What is paperboard?
Paperboard is a paper product with a thickness generally ranging from 10 to 40 points. Paperboard can also be defined by its end use, such as cartons, to differentiate it from other types of thick, dense papers.
How is paperboard different from cardboard?
Paperboard is a smoother, lighter-weight paper product than cardboard. It is often clay-coated for exceptional printability for retail-ready packaging. In comparison, corrugated cardboard is a durable, multi-layered product often used for secondary or tertiary packaging during shipping.
How can paperboard packaging help my product stand out?
Clay-coated paperboard cartons have excellent printability for vibrant, eye-catching graphics.
Is paperboard a sustainable packaging solution?
