Antalis has added Sun Strong, a premium GC2 boxboard manufactured by Burgo, to its large format range. The addition strengthens Antalis’ portfolio for printers and converters producing high-quality packaging, carton and graphical POS and display applications.

Sun Strong is a coated GC2 (FBB) cardboard produced from three layers of bleached virgin fibres, incorporating a CTMP (Chemi-ThermoMechanical Pulp) middle layer. This structure provides a good combination of stiffness and flexibility, ensuring smooth performance in folding, finishing and die-cutting processes.

The board features a smooth, satin-finish surface, with a double coated top side and an uncoated reverse, delivering consistent results for offset and flexo printing. It is also suitable for a range of additional surface treatments, supporting premium packaging requirements.

Available in sheet and reel formats, Sun Strong is supplied in weights ranging from 275 to 325 g/m², offering flexibility across a wide range of packaging and graphic applications.

Sun Strong is 100% recyclable, manufactured using ECF pulp, certified to FSC® and PEFC standards, and achieves a rating of 4-stars in Antalis’ Green Star System™, supporting customers’ sustainability and compliance objectives.

“Sun Strong is a high-quality GC2 board that performs reliably across printing and converting. By adding Sun Strong to our portfolio, we are giving printers and converters access to a board that combines strong visual quality, efficient runnability and recognised sustainability credentials, all backed by Antalis’ local availability and service.”
