Paper Guide
FBB vs Duplex Board
Understand the differences in structure, appearance and typical packaging uses.
Practical considerations
This guide is an introductory overview. Final paper selection should consider the printing or converting process, machine settings, GSM, bulk, stiffness, opacity, surface, grain direction, moisture conditions, end-use and cost.
Start with the application
Define what the finished product must achieve. A packaging carton requires different strength and folding characteristics from a premium brochure or POS receipt.
Request a suitable sample
Where possible, evaluate a representative sample under the intended production conditions before confirming a large order.
