Uncoated recycled paperboard (URB) is a type of paperboard made from recycled paper fibers. It is called “uncoated” because it does not have a coating, such as a glossy finish, applied to its surface. Uncoated recycled paperboard is typically used for packaging and printing applications, and it is often used to make boxes, cartons, and other types of packaging materials. URB is inherently more sustainable than paperboard made from virgin fibers, as it requires fewer resources to produce and reduces the amount of waste in landfills. Uncoated recycled paperboard can be recycled again after use, further reducing its environmental impact.
