Properties and options
Rigid product supportThe backing supports the product and helps retain pack shape. Select stiffness for the product weight and dimensions.
Moisture resistanceThe material surface resists moisture. Select the appropriate coating and working conditions for the product.
Grease resistanceA laminated coating protects the cardboard core against grease from fish, meat or deli products.

Application examples
What to consider when selecting a material
A backing board should support the product and fit the pack format. Specify dimensions, required stiffness, colour and packaging method. Vacuum-bag or skin-packaging processes require the board to be considered alongside the other materials.
Selection questions
What is a backing board used for?
It provides a base for positioning and presenting the product. Select the construction for the product and packaging method.
Can any backing board be used for skin packaging?
No. The base must be compatible with the skin film and equipment. Check it for the specific packaging system.
How are size and stiffness selected?
Consider product dimensions and weight, positioning and pack handling. The base must fit the finished-pack format.
How should product moisture or fat be considered?
State these characteristics during selection. Check the suitability of the backing surface for the particular product and intended use.
Can a backing board be used during heating?
Only where the particular material is intended for that use. Check heating or other processing conditions against its specification.
