Linerboard Production Cost Reports
Packaging
The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a linerboard manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for linerboard production, including the cost of linerboard production, linerboard plant cost, linerboard production costs, and the overall linerboard manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a linerboard production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.
Linerboard is a flat and thin cardboard that is heavier compared to Kraft paper. It is made to be used for manufacturing corrugated cartons or an average cardboard box. In addition, it is used for manufacturing tube and core, pallet liners, floor covering, interleaving and slip sheets, along with a protective overwrap for products that are shipped. Linerboard offers properties like high tensile, burst, roughness, and compressing strength, which makes it perfect for printing applications.
It is used for making displays, folding cartons, and graphical displays. Combined with other corrugated materials, it improves in terms of bursting strength, folding strength, and water repellence. It can be used for making graphics, printing, signage, food, and medical packaging that employ SBS (solid bleached sulfate). In addition, Poly polycoated linerboard is coated on one or both sides with polypropylene, including LDPE, MDPE, HDPE, and PP.
The market for linerboard is majorly driven by its demand for its wide usage for manufacturing cardboard boxes and corrugated cartons, which boosts its demand in the packaging industries. Moreover, linerboard is also utilized to make tube and core, pallet liners, and floor coverings as protective overwrap, which further propels its market expansion.
It can also be utilized to make signage, graphics, printing, food, and medical packaging, which enhances its demand in the printing, food, and pharmaceutical industries for packaging purposes. Additionally, the white top linerboard variation makes up for an excellent foundation for custom printing logos, which is another application furthering the industry's expansion. Additionally, several factors influence industrial linerboard procurement, such as the cost and availability of its feedstock (softwood trees), the market prices of linerboard, environmental regulations, and its distribution, which includes trading and transportation, logistics, etc.
Raw Material for Linerboard Production
According to the Linerboard manufacturing plant project report, the major raw material for Linerboard production includes Softwood Trees.
Manufacturing Process of Linerboard
The extensive Linerboard production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:
- Production From Softwood Trees: The process involves chopping of softwood trees, such as conifers, to obtain logs of the trees, followed by the process of bark removal and chopping the logs into wood chips. Then, wood chips are transformed into pulp by removing lignin and is washed to make a slurry of the fibre and water. Further, the slurry is sprayed, and the pulp is dried to convert it into paper. The paper is then wrapped around reels, followed by the formation of corrugated box of desired design.
Linerboard is basically any grade of paperboard/containerboard that is ideal for making corrugated containers that do not include corrugating medium. It is used as a facing material for making corrugated or solid fibre shipping boxes. All the corrugated packaging is made up of Linerboard.
Linerboard is thin cardboard employed for flat facings corrugated containerboard. It is made by two methods for producing virgin and recycled linerboard. Virgin Linerboard is made by harvesting trees that are turned into pulp, while recycled linerboard is made by employing recycled material, including old, corrugated containers, also known as OCC. Recycled natural linerboard is produced using 10% recycled fibres and works best for tube and core form.
