Swedish term

vätskekartong

Swedish to English Tech/Engineering Paper / Paper Manufacturing type of packaging
I am pretty sure this is laminated card.

It is an item on a list of various packaging materials to be reported to REPA. The other types correspond to various categories in REPA's instructions, but there is no mention in my text of laminated card.
Which is what is used for liquids...

Can anyone please confirm or give me a better suggestion?
THANKS!
