  • We flag Mold or microbial growth on the IDL Packaging and not on the .
  • The is Paper with PE/silicone coating, grease-resistant treatment unspecified where the IDL Packaging is unbleached natural kraft paper, 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 78%, because it discloses less.
