SBS (Solid Bleached
Sulphite):

|
|
SBS is a coated one-side
board, ranging in caliper from 14 – 12 pt. (350 – 600 um). It has a solid
bleached white backside, and a double clay coating on top side. This
substrate is produced using virgin fibre, and typically has excellent

Coated Natural Kraft:
|

This grade is used in our
packaging industry. Manufactured with 90% virgin fibre and 10%
post-consumer waste, this product contains high-yield, kraft-cooked,
unbleached pinewood pulp. Coated Natural Kraft also has a double-clay
coating on the top side, with an uncoated brown back. Due to the natural
sizing in this sheet, it is a great product for frozen foods, while
offering the smoothness and printability of SBS products.

MPE Board : (Metallized
Poly):
|
|
|
MPE board has an extruded
metallized polyester film laminated to SBS board, and does require special
inks. We currently carry the Silver MPE on our floor in calipers 16 pt. and
18 pt. (400 & 450 um). Advantages of MPE include:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- more forgiveness than
foil board.
|
|
|
- no cracking on die lines
and score lines.
|
|
|
- drying occurs through
oxidation, not absorption.

We will be very pleased to
quote you on all types of finishes and laminations.
