Paper Grades
Paper Grades
At Crescent Box Corporation, we offer a variety of paper grades for paperboard and chipboard to meet your specific packaging needs. Our selection includes the following popular paper grades:
Clay Coated News Backboard (CCNB)
CUK paperboard is a strong and durable option that provides a natural, rustic appearance. It is an eco-friendly choice, as it is made from recycled materials and is fully recyclable. CUK is suitable for a wide range of applications, including food packaging and retail displays.
Solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS) Paperboard
SBS paperboard is a high-quality, virgin grade paperboard that offers excellent printability, brightness, and consistent performance. It is ideal for packaging high-end products, such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and luxury goods.
Coated Unbleached Kraft (CUK)
These materials provide a strong and sturdy barrier to protect the contents of the package from damage during shipping and handling.
Non-Bending Chipboard
Non-bending chipboard is made from recycled newsprint and old corrugated materials. It is a thick and rigid paperboard grade that provides a strong structure for rigid or set-up boxes. This grade is commonly used for small luxury goods in the cosmetics, confections, electronics, and jewelry markets.
In addition to these paper grades, we also offer a variety of print and coating options to enhance the appearance and functionality of your packaging:
Coatings
We provide various coating options such as Gloss, Matte, and Aqueous to improve the visual appeal and tactile experience of your packaging. Coatings can also provide additional protection against moisture, scuffs, and abrasions.
- Aqueous coating is a water-based, environmentally friendly coating applied to paperboard packaging to provide a high-gloss finish and enhance the durability of the printed surface. This coating offers several benefits, including:
- Protection: Aqueous coating provides a protective layer that resists scuffs, abrasions, and moisture, ensuring that your packaging maintains its appearance and structural integrity throughout the supply chain.
- Visual Appeal: The high-gloss finish of aqueous coating enhances the vibrancy of colors and improves the overall appearance of your packaging, making it more attractive to consumers.
- Eco-friendliness: As a water-based coating, aqueous coating is more environmentally friendly than other coating options, such as UV or plastic coatings. This makes it an ideal choice for companies looking to reduce their environmental impact.
Printability
Aqueous coating can be applied to both coated and uncoated paperboard, making it a versatile option for a variety of packaging needs. It also works well with various printing techniques, such as flexographic, lithographic, and digital printing.
Our printing capabilities include flexographic, lithographic, and digital printing to ensure high-quality graphics and branding on your packaging. We can also incorporate special finishes such as spot UV, embossing, and foil stamping to create a unique and eye-catching design.
