- The is paper with grease-resistant coating where the IDL Packaging is bleached paper, uncoated, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 70 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the IDL Packaging is the one to buy.
- We are less certain about the grade, at 45% confidence against 82%, because it discloses less.
