Where these two actually differ
- We flag Grease-resistant coating leachables (PFAS-adjacent compounds or alternatives) and Ink or dye migration from exterior printing on the Lakeland and not on the Lakeland.
- We flag Degradation and food contact integrity and Mold or bacterial growth from moisture retention on the Lakeland and not on the Lakeland.
- The Lakeland is Kraft paperboard with grease-resistant coating where the Lakeland is Molded fiber/pulp (plant-based), which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 45 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Lakeland is the one to buy.
