“U” Boards, Base Cards & Layers

Legacy of Innovation

During the Great Depression, Murnane Companies pioneered a method for cutting square-edged, lint-free soap wraps for automatic wrapping machines. This innovation extended to the confectionery industry, leading to the development of wax-coated chocolate board candy bar base cards for automated wrapping machinery. This legacy of innovation continues to influence their packaging solutions today.

Available in recycled and virgin paperboard grades with calipers ranging from .012 to .040, these components can be flexographically printed, laminated, and die-cut to enhance packaging aesthetics and functionality.
