The board

Paper board, all the way through.

Our boxes are cut from E-flute kraft with virgin kraft liner on every face that touches food. A water-based grease barrier takes the place of PE lamination, so there is no plastic film to peel off before recycling.

  • E-flute kraft, 0.06 in (1.5 mm)
  • Virgin kraft on the food side
  • Water-based grease barrier
  • No PE film

What it is made of

What goes into a box.

Three layers of paper and one water-based coat. Nothing you would need to peel off.

E-flute kraft

0.06 in (1.5 mm) corrugated board. Stiff enough to stack, thin enough to fold cleanly.

Food-side liner

Virgin kraft liner on every face that touches food.

Grease barrier

Water-based, used in place of PE lamination.

No plastic film

No PE coating and no window film, so the box stays kerbside-recyclable with paper and board.

Folds by hand

Scored creases fold the sheet into shape by hand in about four seconds.

Printed on kraft

Flexo in 1 to 4 colours on the kraft face. Colour on unbleached kraft varies a little from run to run.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

Something not covered here? Ask in the form below and we answer within one working day.

Is the box recyclable?

The box is paper board with a water-based grease barrier and no PE film, so it goes in with paper and board. Local rules on food-soiled paper vary, so check with your hauler.

Does grease come through?

The food side is virgin kraft with a water-based grease barrier. If your food is very oily, we sample the box with it before you order.

How exact is the size?

Folded size is held to ±0.04 in (±1 mm) of the approved proof.

Why does the colour vary a little?

Unbleached kraft is a natural material and its shade changes a little from run to run. Printed colour on it varies with it. Variation within that range is normal, not a defect.
