CARTONS

Boxes
Trays
Sleeves

We design and produce a variety of standard and custom folding cartons to give your product the optimum shelf impact. Recyclable and renewable paperboard stocks are environmentally-friendly options.  Both will support the high quality multi-color offset printing needed for attractive, functional packaging.

Stock Types (in order of highest quality and decreasing cost):

• SBS (Solid Bleached Sulfate) –
“virgin” paperboard, totally white,
produces strong, super quality
printed pieces


• S.U.S. (Solid Unbleached Sulfate) –
also “virgin” stock, produces strong
fibers for good tear resistance…white
side for good printability and kraft
color back


• WCCKB (White Clay Coated Kraft Back) –
white one side, kraft color back, made from
discarded corrugated stock…good strength
capabilities on clay-coated front side



• WCCNB (White Clay Coated News Back) –
white front, grayish back, from recycled
newspaper stock…least expensive, good
quality print stock, used primarily for low
cost packaging


• TBC (Tan Bending Chip) –
the green look consumers are looking
for…recycled chip board, kraft color both
sides, best for simple, basic printing
