Introduction
CCNB is valued for its cost-effectiveness and versatility. The clay-coated surface provides excellent printability for high-quality graphics. The grayback, made from recycled pulp, offers strength and rigidity at a lower cost compared to virgin fiber boards.
Standard CCNB combines recycled and some virgin fibers for reliable performance, balancing eco-friendliness with good strength and printability.
Fully Recycled CCNB is made entirely from recycled fibers, making it the more environmentally friendly option by fully utilizing recycled materials and reducing resource consumption.
Using recycled paper in CCNB production lowers the demand for virgin materials, conserving resources and reducing the carbon footprint. It’s suitable for packaging food, daily necessities, and consumer goods, offering a practical balance of quality and affordability.
Characteristics of CCNB
- Coating: The surface is coated with clay, offering good printability and visual appeal.
- Back Side: Typically gray, made from recycled pulp, emphasizing its eco-friendly nature.
- Strength: Provides adequate strength and rigidity for various packaging uses.
- Environmental Friendliness: Uses a significant amount of recycled fibers, aligning with environmental standards.
Uses of CCNB
- Packaging Boxes: Widely used for packaging food, daily necessities, pharmaceuticals, etc.
- Folding Cartons: Suitable for making folding cartons for light goods.
- Labels: Ideal for creating labels and stickers.
- Display Boards: Used for making advertising and display boards.
Advantages of CCNB
- Good Printability: The clay-coated surface supports high-quality printing with vibrant colors and clear images.
- Economical: Lower cost due to the use of recycled fibers.
- Eco-friendly: High proportion of recycled pulp helps reduce environmental pollution.
Disadvantages of CCNB
- Lower Strength: Compared to virgin fiber board, its strength and rigidity might be slightly lower.
- Back Side Color: The gray back side is not suitable for applications requiring high-quality printing on both sides.
Typical Applications of CCNB

- Daily Necessities Packaging: Toothpaste boxes, shampoo boxes, cosmetics boxes, etc.
- Pharmaceutical Packaging: Outer packaging for medicines.
- Consumer Goods Packaging: Packaging for toys, stationery, gift boxes, etc.
Fully Recycled CCNB vs. Standard CCNB
| Feature | Standard CCNB | Fully Recycled CCNB |
| Raw Material | Primarily recycled fibers, some virgin fibers | Fully made from recycled fibers |
| Environmental Impact | Eco-friendly but may use some virgin fibers | More eco-friendly, fully utilizes recycled materials |
| Resource Consumption | Lower, but may require some virgin materials | Lowest, fully relies on recycled materials |
| Carbon Footprint | Lower, but may increase due to some virgin fibers | Lower, fully utilizes recycled materials |
| Quality Stability | Relatively stable, may vary due to fiber mix | Slightly less stable, but more eco-friendly |
Environmental Advantages of Fully Recycled CCNB
- Resource Conservation: Reduces demand for virgin fibers, helping protect forest ecosystems.
- Waste Reduction: Utilizes more waste paper, reducing landfill and incineration.
- Carbon Emission Reduction: Less energy and water consumption in production, leading to lower carbon emissions.
Application Scenarios
- Standard CCNB: Suitable for packaging applications requiring certain strength and rigidity, such as food packaging, daily necessities, and pharmaceutical packaging.
- Fully Recycled CCNB: Ideal for applications with higher environmental requirements, such as green food packaging, eco-friendly product packaging, and promotional activities emphasizing sustainability.
Summary
CCNB (Clay Coated News Back) is a cost-effective and eco-friendly packaging material made from recycled fibers with a clay-coated surface for good printability. Standard CCNB combines recycled and some virgin fibers for stable quality, while Fully Recycled CCNB is more environmentally friendly, using only recycled materials. Both types are suitable for various packaging needs, with Fully Recycled CCNB being an excellent choice for applications prioritizing sustainability.
