Paperilevyt

Paperilevyt, often translated as paper sheets or paperboard, refers to a broad category of paper products manufactured in a sheet form. These are typically thicker and more rigid than standard writing or printing paper, and their composition can vary widely depending on their intended use. Paperilevyt are created by pressing together layers of cellulose fibers, often derived from wood pulp or recycled paper. The thickness, density, and surface properties are controlled during the manufacturing process.

The applications of paperilevyt are diverse. They are commonly used in packaging, forming boxes, cartons, and other protective containers. In the graphic arts industry, they serve as a substrate for printing posters, displays, and book covers due to their ability to hold ink well and provide a sturdy surface. They can also be found in construction as building materials, such as insulation or as components in composite boards. In hobbies and crafts, various types of paperilevyt are utilized for model making, scrapbooking, and creating durable decorative items. The specific type of paperilevy, such as cardboard, paperboard, or specialty boards, is determined by factors like strength requirements, printability, and moisture resistance.
