Introducing the Ultimate Printing Resource: Explore Our Board Swatch Today

Posted by Hartgraph 19th March 2024


Introducing the Box Board Swatch In the bustling world of printing, where countless cartons and mailing boxes zip through presses and finishing departments each week, conversations about board weights and finishes are constant. Recognizing the value of providing our clients with a convenient reference tool for their discussions on upcoming projects, we've taken the initiative to create the Box Board Swatch.

Collaborating closely with our sales and CAD teams, we've meticulously compiled a comprehensive book featuring the most sought-after thicknesses and finishes. Within its pages, clients will discover a curated selection of one-sided, two-sided, and Kraft board options across a range of weights.

Included in our Box Board Swatch are:

  • Scancote Elegance GC1
  • Scancote Excellence GC2
  • Incada Silk
  • Ensocoat (two-sided)
  • Invercote G
  • CKB Carrier Board
  • Optima Grey Back
  • Kraftpak

The featured board weights vary depending on the type of board and span from 330 microns to 660 microns. Additionally, our commitment to sustainability is evident, as all FSC-certified stocks are clearly identified.

It's worth noting that unlike paper stocks, which are typically defined by GSM (grammage per square meter), board thickness is measured in microns, directly corresponding to its thickness. Despite two different types of board having the same micron measurement, they can feel distinctly different due to variations in GSM. Therefore, we emphasize the importance of reviewing samples and creating blank samples before proceeding with any print run.

If you're interested in receiving one of our Box Board Swatches, or if you believe our paper swatch could be beneficial for you, kindly reach out to us via email at print@hartgraph.co.uk, and we'll promptly dispatch one to you.

We're excited to equip you with the tools you need for seamless project discussions and successful printing outcomes.
