Selecting the right GSM in duplex board is an important decision that directly affects packaging performance and cost.
Many buyers tend to choose higher GSM assuming it will provide better strength. While higher GSM does increase stiffness, it also adds to overall cost and may not always be necessary for the application.
On the other hand, using lower GSM without proper evaluation can lead to issues like reduced box strength, bending, or damage during transportation.
The key is to match GSM with the specific requirement of the product. Factors such as product weight, type of packaging, storage conditions, and handling during transit should be considered.
For example, lightweight FMCG products may perform well with lower GSM, while heavier products or export packaging often require higher GSM for better durability.
Another important point is consistency. Even with the right GSM, variation in quality can affect performance during printing and conversion.
