Drawing on over fifty years of experience in the paper and board industry, we have compiled a collection of technical resources to help you make informed decisions about materials, grades and compliance requirements.
Paper weight is expressed differently depending on the region and standard in use. Our conversion guide explains the relationship between grams per square metre (gsm), US basis weights and imperial measurements, so you can compare specifications across international suppliers with confidence. Whether you are sourcing 80 gsm office stock or 350 gsm packaging board, this guide makes it straightforward to find the equivalent weight in any system.
Choosing the correct board grade is essential for product protection, print quality and cost efficiency. This overview covers the most commonly used grades in the UK market, including solid bleached board (SBB), folding boxboard (FBB) and white-lined chipboard (WLC). Each grade profile covers typical applications, printability and recommended end uses.
Responsible sourcing is central to how we operate. We hold FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) chain-of-custody certification, and back it up with practical waste reduction — converting to size to avoid offcuts, reworking and reissuing redundant stock, and planning logistics to minimise unnecessary mileage.
