Why Choose White Cardstock
Custom White Cardstock Packaging | Bright Coated Paperboard for Vivid Color Printing
White cardstock is coated paperboard produced with a bright white clay coating on one (C1S) or both (C2S) surfaces, providing the maximum reflectance printing substrate for vivid full-color offset and digital printing. The clay coating seals the paperboard's fiber surface, creating a smooth, low-absorption surface that holds CMYK inks at the surface rather than allowing them to penetrate into the fiber -- this ink holdout produces the color vibrancy and print sharpness that white cardstock enables versus uncoated alternatives.
C1S vs. C2S White Cardstock
C1S (coated one side) has clay coating on the front face only -- used for applications where only the front face requires high print quality. C2S (coated two sides) has clay coating on both surfaces, enabling high-quality printing on all faces -- the appropriate specification for folding carton packaging where all exterior faces are printed.
Brightness and Print Quality
White cardstock brightness -- measured 0-100 where 100 is maximum reflectance -- determines how vivid printed colors appear. Standard commercial white cardstock achieves 82-88 brightness; premium SBS board achieves 88-92 brightness. Higher brightness substrates make CMYK colors appear more saturated and vivid, with cleaner whites in reverse-out text and graphics.
The White Cardstock Advantage in Color Reproduction
White cardstock's coated surface enables CMYK inks to appear at their maximum designed saturation level. The difference in color vibrancy between printing on uncoated and coated white cardstock is significant and immediately visible: uncoated stock absorbs ink into the fiber, reducing perceived saturation and sharpness; coated stock holds ink at the surface where it reflects light toward the viewer at maximum intensity. For packaging where accurate brand color reproduction and vivid product photography are commercial requirements, C2S white cardstock is the foundational material specification.
14pt vs. 18pt vs. 24pt White Cardstock
White cardstock caliper determines the box's structural rigidity and perceived quality in hand. 14pt is the economical standard for lightweight retail folding cartons -- adequate rigidity for light cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods at minimal material cost. 18pt provides noticeable additional stiffness appropriate for premium retail packaging. 24pt is the maximum standard folding carton caliper, producing boxes with substantial rigidity that communicates premium construction for luxury cosmetics, premium food, and high-value consumer goods.
