Elsewhere, the paperboard group said that it will be upgrading its folding box board Incada. It will be whiter and lighter and also have a number of improved properties affecting printability, according to Iggesund.

The firm also said that its Incada Exel, which is more of a specialised packaging board, will also have improved stiffness, with a gain of up to 10 to 15% for grammages over 300 g/m2.

“This enables our customers to reduce their packaging weights while keeping the same protection for the contents,” said Incada product manager Robin Lewis. “Incada was introduced in 2001 and since then we’ve made many small quality improvements.”
