Corrugated

What is corrugated board used for in retail displays and exhibitions?

Corrugated board is widely used in retail and exhibition settings for its strength, printability, and lightweight structure; ideal for POS units, hanging signs, and pop-up displays. At Antalis, our large-format corrugated boards are clay-coated for high-quality visuals and available in flutes like E-Flute and B-Flute, perfect for constructing displays boards.

Xanita Board is another excellent option for eco-conscious projects, offering a rigid, printable surface that's easy to cut and convert. For a clean, professional finish, Xanita Edge edging strips complete your display with minimal effort.

How is Xanita Board different from standard corrugated board?

While both materials are lightweight and strong, Xanita Board stands out for its fully re-pulpable, VOC-free construction and inner core made from recycled Kraft. Unlike standard corrugated boards, which use a fluted structure, Xanita features a closed-cell fibreboard core for greater rigidity and a smoother finish. It's ideal for 3D displays, retail interiors, and signage where strength and sustainability matter. Xanita is also flat-packable and compatible with UV digital, latex, and CNC cutting—offering superior versatility across print and structural applications.

Can corrugated board be recycled in the UK?

Yes, both Xanita Board and Antalis' corrugated board products are recyclable in the UK. Xanita is made from recycled paper, uses VOC-free adhesives, and is fully re-pulpable—making it a sustainable choice for eco-conscious display projects. Similarly, our clay-coated corrugated boards are biodegradable, PVC-free, and recyclable, ensuring minimal environmental impact once the display has served its purpose. Choosing these materials supports responsible disposal practices and aligns with sustainability goals in visual communication.
