Making Work Easier
One of the recurring questions we get is how to make simple conversions between different sizes and weights of paper. The latest tool we created helps meet our customers’ needs to convert different sizes and weight of paper easily. Using this chart eliminates having to do all of the equations to find out the information you are looking for each time you order your paper requirements.
The Cheever Paper Dimensions and Weight Conversion Chart allow you to convert different sizes and weight of paper without wasting a lot of time. Making the proper conversion is important as basis weight, which describes the density of a specific sheet of paper according to how many pounds one ream weights at its basic size is only relevant in the United States. One ream of paper is typically about 500 sheets of paper.
Other countries around the world measure paper differently using the metric equivalent, which is called Grammage weight. Grammage weight is the weight of paper expressed as grams per square meter. It measures the same thing as basis weight but does not consider paper density or basic size.
Another form of paper measurement is M Weight. It refers to the weight of 1000 cut sheets of paper. M weight is useful for paper suppliers because it is always consistent with a specific paper size, which makes calculating shipping charges easier.
Many times this information needs to be converted into different units of measurement like lbs., linear foot, linear yard, and square yardage among others. Once you make the conversion, it is also important to know how much it will cost per this unit of measurement to order.
Making Your Business More Profitable
Once you make the conversion between different sizes and weights of paper using our chart, you will need to know how much it will cost per this unit of measurement to order. Having the right unit of measurement to order will allow you to make the best purchase decision.
