Heavy-Duty Paperboard

Made in the USA from recycled materials, our fiber slip sheets provide a durable, cost-effective packaging solution to protect palletized products on wooden pallets during storage, handling, and shipping. Designed as a lightweight alternative to traditional wood pallets, these paperboard sheets shield bagged materials from punctures and tears caused by pallet nails and deck boards. The high-strength fiber construction also offers moisture resistance, protecting products from ground exposure and helping to prevent mold and mildew. Ideal for use with push-pull equipment, our fiber slip sheets ensure reliable protection for your packaging needs.

Measuring Slip Sheet Thickness

Slip sheet costs are determined by three factors: material type, board size, and board thickness. Using a micrometer, measure the board thickness to ensure you’re selecting the right slip sheet for your needs.

How to Measure:

Place the board between the micrometer to determine its caliper. For example, a 0.037 inch (37 pt) board can be measured to ensure you're using the correct thickness for your packaging requirements.
