What is Testliner?
Testliner is a recycled paperboard made from waste paper and board fibre.
It has a natural kraft-style appearance and is commonly used for layer sheets, industrial packaging, arts and crafts, and general protective applications.
Testliner is usually available in medium to heavy weights, making it a practical option when you need a strong, affordable board for everyday packaging use.
Key Benefits and Performance
Testliner is chosen for its recycled content, useful strength, and natural brown finish.
Because it is made from recycled fibre, it gives packaging projects a more practical and environmentally conscious board choice while still offering good handling performance.
- Made from 100% recycled waste paper and board fibre for a more responsible material choice.
- Available in 100 gsm to 300 gsm for layer sheets, packaging, and board applications.
- Natural kraft-style appearance for industrial, craft, and protective uses.
- Good stiffness for separating, layering, backing, and protecting products.
- Cost-effective performance for high-volume packaging and general use.
- Easy to cut, fold, crease, and glue for packaging conversion and craft work.
Common Uses and Limitations
Testliner is commonly used for layer sheets, pallet protection, industrial packaging, dividers, backing boards, arts and crafts, and general packaging sheets.
It works well when you need a recycled board with a natural look and enough strength for separating or protecting goods.
- Layer sheets
- Industrial packaging
- Pallet sheets
- Product dividers
- Backing boards
- Arts and crafts
- General protective packaging
Testliner is not usually suitable for wet, greasy, chilled, or outdoor conditions unless extra coating or barrier protection is added.
As a recycled board, its colour and surface finish can vary more than virgin kraft or coated boards, so it may not be the best fit for premium print-led packaging.
