White Clay Coated Folding Boxboard from Mexico
This is a high-quality paperboard coated with clay on both sides, in rolls wider than 15 cm, specifically designed as folding carton stock for manufacturing rigid boxes used in food packaging. It falls under HTS 4811.59.40.20 because it is paperboard coated with plastics (clay coating), in rolls exceeding 15 cm width, and meets the criteria for folding carton stock not covered by other headings. The smooth surface ensures excellent printability for branding on cereal or snack boxes.
