Folding Box Board

Incada is a folding boxboard product based entirely on fresh fibres. It has a multi-layered fibre composition and construction designed to maximise its stiffness whilst having a low density.

The outer layers consist of bleached chemical sulphate pulp and the middle layers of thermo-mechanically separated fibres (TMP). Pigment coating can be applied to one or both sides and its unique composition is designed so that the product family satisfies different end-use printability requirements.

Product description

Incada Duo is a fully coated folding box board (FBB) designed for applications when true performance and visual impact is desirable. Its outstanding stiffness and thickness properties in combination with its strength makes it suitable for rigid packaging.

Incada Duo can be extrusion coated to add the barrier functions necessary for 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.
