A Comparative examination of the physical properties of recycled, high-performance and virgin-kraft linerboards and combined boards

Author

Abstract

The most recent advances in corrugated quality involve the use of recycled linerboard. Recycled linerboard has improved by both enhancing the quality of the source pulp and refinements in the recycling process itself. This examination compared both linerboard and combined board using 100% recycled pulp, virgin-kraft material, as well as a high-performance material.
