Our FBB GC2 products
Our products are all multilayered Folding Box Board, produced in La Rochette’s mill. The core of our board is made from mechanical pulp, bleached and unbleached, produced from woodchips coming from La Rochette area (max 150 km). The external layers are made from chemical pulp, carefully selected especially regarding the traceability of the pulp origin.
