Practical questions
Before you specify.
What does OBA-free mean?
This GC2 grade is designated free of optical brightening agents in its TDS. Confirm the exact grade and supporting documentation when an OBA-free specification is required.
What grammage is available in the current TDS?
200–350 gsm across ten documented grades.
Is GC2 the same as GC1 High Bulk?
No. YOUNGSUN treats GC2 and GC1 High Bulk as separate products with separate specifications.
Can GC2 be used for food packaging?
The grade is positioned as a high-bulk food card, but exact food-contact documentation must be confirmed for the intended application and market.
