Wood Replacement Material |
North American Container
Corporation, announces the development of Fibre/Core®, wood
replacement material comprised of solid fibre and corrugated board.
This revolutionary material is made to specific formulas which
determine the relative position and thickness of the fibre and
corrugated layers for required stiffness and compression strength.
Fibre/Core® planks are produced in varying thickness, widths,
and combinations.
These planks can be processed by standard woodworking saws
and can be tenoned and mortised for joining. Central webs of solid
fibre are possible in Fibre/Core® planks yielding structures
similar to H and I beams. Fibre/Core® has a great advantage
over hollow solid fibre tubes in that a core glue surface is present
after notching or tenoning which allows lap joined frames to be
made. Fibre/Core® can be processed into pallets, top support
frames and corner posts for heavy duty packaging where high stacking
strength, clamp or fork truck strength is necessary.

 |
| You're concerned
about how your product is packaged and in what condition it arrives
on your customer's dock. You realize that packaging is an opportunity
to set yourself apart from the competition and create another favorable
image for your product and company. A Fibre/Core® pallet can
only enhance a positive packaging image! |
| Layered and/or edged with solid fiber or wood, Fibre/Core® as
raw sheet stock offers a stiff, light weight alternative to pressed
or strand board surfaces. Ideal for edge banding applications
and as an internal core for water proof laminated tables and furniture
surfaces. |
| By varying the build-up content, NACC can engineer
a Fibre/Core® solution that has the combination of strength and
cost that is best for you and your product. |
