Liquidpaperboard - Milk and Juice Cartons, continued

There are two different types of liquidpaperboard cartons:

Gable top Cartons

These cartons are made from a layer of cardboard covered on each side by a layer of thin plastic. This plastic protects the paper from getting wet. This plastic is called polyethylene. These cartons are used for milk and juices we keep in the fridge.

Aseptic Bricks

These cartons are made from five layers: one of cardboard, one of aluminium foil, and three of plastic. These cartons don’t need to be refrigerated, as the contents are sterilised and fully sealed in the carton. They are shaped like bricks and are used to contain juice, long life milk, sauces, soups, oil and other liquids.
