Solidboard refers to laminated products made primarily from 100% recycled paperboard. Commonly used in Europe where wax-coated corrugated is prohibited due to its non-recyclability, the converted products of Newark Solidboard Products are an ideal solution because of their strength, structural integrity even when wet, and "field to retail floor" functionality. Solidboard packaging is a major product line of our European operations.
We operate 4 converting plants for Solidboard in Spain, France and The Netherlands, where we create boxes and trays for packaging fruits, vegetables, fish, meat and poultry for shipment to warehouses and retail stores. We believe we are the second largest producer of solidboard packaging in Western Europe with annual production of approximately 100,000 tons.
