JB10

At just 32mm x 45mm (1.3 inches x 1.8 inches), the JB10 paper format features the smallest dimensions in the entire JIS B series paper size standards. With a surface area of a mere 0.0014 square meters, JB10 allows extremely efficient use of printing materials for applications like tiny labels, stickers, and tags where compactness is vital. Part of the JIS B paper sizes arising from 20th century post-war industrial standardization efforts in Japan, JB10 upholds the classic “Kiku” aspect ratio. It does not have any widely used alternate names or significant adoption beyond East Asia compared to globally prominent ISO sizes. However, within the Asian printing space, JB10 serves a unique ultra-compact niche, continuing traditional norms emphasizing precision resource usage through standardized industrial guidelines. Pushing the boundaries of diminutive dimensions, JB10 demonstrates ongoing cultural prioritization of conservation, exactness, and controlled formatting underlying Japanese and regional standards.
