Product area Board offers

  • Liquid packaging board is used for packaging beverages and liquid foods, including milk, juice and preserved foods. Billerud’s liquid board protects and preserves the contents, is stable and can satisfy most printing requirements.
  • Cartonboard allows for unique designs and graphics, print quality, flexibility and moisture resistance. It is often used for consumer products where the packaging is part of the brand’s image, such as for exclusive drinks, beauty and healthcare products.
  • Containerboard comprises fluting and liner products. Fluting is the wavy layer in corrugated board, which is used for fragile and heavy industrial products and in food packaging. Liner is the outer, printable layer of corrugated board boxes.
