Your Go-To Reference for Packaging Decisions
Choosing the right paper stock can make or break your packaging. A well-designed paper weight chart gives your team, your customers, or your sales reps a tangible reference tool that simplifies material selection. Whether you place it on a retail counter, include it in sample kits, or hang it in your production area, this chart turns a confusing topic into a clear, visual guide.
Teal Packaging produces these charts with full-color CMYK printing on premium card stock, so every weight category is easy to read and compare at a glance. Each chart is manufactured to your exact specifications, from dimensions and layout to the paper stocks you want featured.
Fully Customized to Your Product Line
No two businesses carry the same materials, so your chart should reflect exactly what you offer. We print custom layouts that can include:
- GSM and basis weight comparisons across bond, text, cover, and cardboard grades
- Actual paper swatches or printed texture simulations for each weight category
- Your brand colors, logo, and typography throughout the design
- Callouts for popular stocks like 14pt, 18pt, and 24pt folding carton board
- QR codes linking to your online product catalog or quote request page
Our free design support team will help you organize the information clearly, whether you need a simple one-sided reference card or a multi-panel foldout with dozens of paper grades.
Durable, Sustainable Materials Built to Last
A reference chart gets handled constantly, so it needs to hold up. We print on thick, coated card stock with options for matte lamination, gloss lamination, or spot UV finish to protect against fingerprints and wear. For charts that will live in production environments or warehouses, soft-touch lamination adds a premium feel while resisting scuffs.
All materials are sourced from FSC-certified suppliers, printed with soy-based inks, and fully recyclable. Your chart does its job without creating unnecessary waste.
Who Uses These Charts
Paper weight reference tools serve a surprisingly wide range of industries and settings:
