4811.59.40.20 - Folding carton stock 🖩

This classification covers folding carton stock, which is paper or paperboard coated, impregnated, or covered with plastics, not including adhesives. This material is typically used in the manufacturing of foldable boxes and containers. The key characteristic is its suitability for folding and forming into three-dimensional packaging structures.

Within this level, the distinction often lies in the specific application or physical characteristics that differentiate it from other "other" categories. Given that this is a leaf node, the subcategories are not applicable. Instead, classification within 4811.59.40.20 will hinge on the precise nature of the plastic coating or covering and its intended use as folding carton stock, as opposed to other plastic-coated papers or paperboards not specifically designed for this purpose.

The material is characterized by its ability to be creased, folded, and glued or sealed to form rigid or semi-rigid containers. It may have specific surface finishes or treatments to enhance printability, moisture resistance, or strength, all essential for its role in packaging. The width and sheet dimensions provided in the parent category's description help to differentiate it from narrower strips or smaller sheets.
