CORRUGATED
FIBREBOARD BOX
The corrugated fibreboard box is by far the most common form of
distribution packaging. It has kept and is improving its pre-eminent
position because of many factors, including its
-
Versatility
- High Strength and Low Weight Characteristics
- Product Containment and Protection Features
- Ready Adaption to a wide range of Production Techniques
- Low Set Up and Tooling Costs; Low Storage and Handling Costs
- Use of Renewable Resources and Suitability for Recycling and Suitability
for Graphic design
Corrugated boxes
come in all shapes and sizes to suit your needs.
BOX SIZING
Box dimensions
are always measured by reference to the inside dimensions of the
box and are expressed in the sequence of length, width and depth
(also called height).
The length is always the larger of the two dimensions of the open
face (flap opening); the width is the smaller. The depth is always
the distance perpendicular to the length and width.
FLUTES
Corrugated board is generally made in four flute sizes A, C, B,
and E. The "Flute" describes the structure of the wave-shaped
cardboard material that makes up a board's corrugation.
