Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Recycled-content contaminants, Microbial growth and mold and Pulp-processing additives (optical brighteners, sizing agents) on the Fun Express and not on the IDL Packaging.
  • We flag Mold or microbial growth on the IDL Packaging and not on the Fun Express.
  • The Fun Express is kraft paper, uncoated where the IDL Packaging is unbleached natural kraft paper, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the IDL Packaging is the one to buy.

Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
