Card stock is a paper stock that is thicker and more durable than normal writing or printing paper, but thinner and more flexible than other forms of paperboard. Card stock is often used for business cards, postcards, playing cards, catalog covers, scrapbooking, and other uses which require higher durability than regular paper. The texture is usually smooth, but can be textured, metallic, or glossy.
Corrugated card
Corrugated fiberboard is a paper-based material consisting of a fluted corrugated sheet and one or two flat linerboards. It is widely used in the manufacture of corrugated boxes and shipping containers. The corrugated medium and linerboard are made of containerboard, a paper-like material usually over 0.01 inches (0.25 mm) thick. Paperboard and corrugated fiberboard are sometimes called cardboard, although cardboard might be any heavy paper-pulp based board.
Binders board
Binder's board is a paperboard used in bookbinding for making hardcovers which are normally acid free.
Carton board
Also called solid cardboard, or boxboard, this board is thin and has a smooth coating on one side which is applied during the manufacturing process. This smooth side is for gluing printed paper or foil to the cardboard or it can be printed on in a printing press. Carton board is used for boxes made to package items such as cosmetics, cereals and other food products, computer software and video games. It is also cut and folded for use in the packaging of children's toys (i.e., action figures), hair accessories and liquor bottles. This board is made to be water resistance and remain flat.
Pasteboard
Pasteboard is usually used for business cards, aperture cards, postcards, playing cards and catalogue covers.
