Kraftliner calculation
If you’re using a 110 gsm kraftliner today, that weighs 1,100 kg per 10,000 m2. With our new 92 gsm kraftliner, the weight decreases by 16 per cent to 920 kg. In other words, with our new 92 gsm kraftliner, you will get 20 per cent more paper per tonne, increasing the total m2 from 9,090 to 10,870 m2.
Fluting calculation
Switching from a 105 gsm semi chemical fluting to Holmen Elevate Flute 92 gsm reduces material weight by up to 12 per cent, and you will get 14 per cent more m2 to make boxes.
