Incada Duo

Incada Duo is designed for applications where outstanding stiffness properties in combination with visual impact are important. It is a fully coated folding box board (FBB) with a medium gloss finish. Incada Duo can be extrusion coated to add the barrier functions necessary under extreme conditions, for example, in outdoor displays. It can also be foil or film laminated. It is made by back-to-back pasting of Incada Exel and therefore the printing surfaces are identical. Alternative versions are available such as front-to-back pasting to achieve special properties or appearances.

Grain results from the fact that fibers flowing onto the paper machine wire align themselves predominantly in the direction of their flow and the moving wire. The direction that is parallel to the flow of fibers on the wire is called the Machine Direction (MD). Direction perpendicular to the machine direction, or across the paper machine wire, is called the Cross Machine Direction (CD). Grain direction is called long-grain (or grain-long) when the longer sheet dimension is the same as, or parallel to, the machine direction. Shortgrain paperboard has its shorter sheet dimension parallel to machine direction. A diagram of each is below:
