Paperboard Products

Paperboard packaging is resilient, lightweight and sustainable, which is why it’s such a popular choice for protecting products all over the world.

Paperboard is versatile and it can be transformed into any number of designs, from cartons to complicated packages. There are many types and grades of paperboard on the market with different characteristics, strengths, and weaknesses. Which is why the right paperboard testing equipment is essential for businesses who work with this helpful paper substrate.

We’ve specialized in paperboard inspection and the design and manufacture of testing instruments for pulp, paper, and packaging industries for almost 100 years.

Industrial Physics paperboard testing devices can measure more than 50 discrete properties based on international testing standards.

The best for any paperboard test

We build reliable paperboard inspection and testing instruments that rapidly analyze any physical property of your paperboard materials – giving you a clear picture of which packaging works best for your products.

Our paperboard testing equipment will give you highly accurate readings for everything from coefficient of friction (COF), product thickness, gage and/or bulking properties, adhesion or release and tack, through to compression strength and crush resistance. We also make paperboard testing devices to test everything from tensile strength, impact resistance and internal bond strength, through to rub and wear resistance, printability and print quality.

Good-looking paperboard testing

An Industrial Physics paperboard testing device will help make your products stand out on the shelf. Our devices will examine the optical properties of your paperboard samples – everything from whiteness, brightness, color, opacity and gloss. All of which will guide the production of visually appealing paperboard packaging.
